A few notes from Ellen.
Passion
My passion for caring for newborns and young children is a source of deep joy. It has led to North Star Newborns, a service providing one-on-one care for newborns and infants up to 12 months. Decades of experience, personally with my three children and five grandchildren and professionally with over one hundred families, have provided a wealth of knowledge.
Trust
Every parent seeking care for their infant should have complete trust in whoever is caring for their most precious possession. When parents need help providing their newborn or infant with warmth, love, an easy, leisurely pace, and one-on-one attention, we offer to be there.
Security
The family is the source of human security. There are times when the family needs the support of another to offer this to their baby so they may all feel safe. When loving and professional care provides security beyond child care, parents and the whole family can feel a reassuring calm.
This has become even more critical since COVID-19 began. Many parents now find themselves working from home and balancing more than ever. The need for quality childcare in the home is increasing.
What North Star Newborns offers is unique. Providing parents extra care and support for their newest additions will make them feel more cared for and supported, allowing for a smoother transition in both personal and work life
