If you do not require all the services in the Complete Package, you can create your own custom plan by picking and choosing the services relevant to you from those listed below.
Your consultant will provide you with as much information as possible to enable you to make informed decisions regarding which baby gear is safest for baby and best suits your lifestyle, budget and aesthetic. From there you will work together to create your custom registry for your baby shower or for your personal shopping.
We recognize that parents expecting multiples may require an additional level of support that is unique to their situation. For this reason, this service is always delivered by a consultant who has experience with multiples herself. She will talk you through some multiples specific baby gear for your consideration as well as scheduling and organizational needs specific to multiples. She will also help you frame some realistic expectations for the first few weeks at home with the babies as well as address any fears and concerns you may be having.
If you do not have time to purchase all of baby’s gear yourself, your consultant will purchase on your behalf according to the custom registry you created together. If you would like to wait until after the baby shower, then your consultant will only do the purchasing of items remaining on your registry after the shower.
Once all the baby gear has been purchased, we will deliver and assemble it for you at your primary home. Items that require assembly may include but are not limited to bedside sleeper, cot, compactum, wardrobe, stroller etc. Your consultant will also show you how to use each item properly and safely, as you need her to.
This service aims to create not only a beautiful space that baby will enjoy and grow with but also nurture a seamless flow of baby care to support you in meeting baby’s needs quickly and easily. All items in baby’s layette will be hand washed (to avoid residue from bio detergents which may be present in the drum cartridge of a washing machine from rubbing off onto baby’s clothes, and irritating their sensitive skin). Your consultant will deliver them to your home washed and ironed and then organize and pack them away. We aim for every nursery we design to be a peaceful place that will nurture safe sleep for baby as well as stimulate him/her when appropriate.
Firstly your consultant will establish a petite nursery in the grandparents or secondary caregiver’s home as well as pack a diaper bag for them to use when they are with baby. Secondly she will instruct grandparents on car seat use and safety, train them on baby gear in their home and finally she will instruct them on basic baby care as needed.
Depending on the type of birth you have chosen (i.e cesarean delivery, VBAC, hospital vaginal delivery or birth center delivery) your consultant will organize for the tour of your birthing facility (this will be a group tour, not private). She will then pack your hospital bag and deliver it together with your supplies for postpartum healing.
This is a free service available only to clients who choose our Complete Package. Your personal consultant will be available 24/7 on the phone or by email to answer any questions or concerns for up to 2 weeks after delivery. Thereafter, your consultant will be available during our normal office hours (9am- 5pm)
This is a practical baby-life balance service we offer clients between 8- 20 weeks postpartum. Your consultant will work with you and guide you on how to create manageable goals for your family around baby’s feeding and napping times. This service is also a guide on how to gently introduce sleep training for clients who prefer to have a structured schedule for baby as they prepare to return to work from maternity leave.
