A little bit about me

✨ Hello, my name is Valentina ✨
I’m from Colombia and have over 3 years of experience caring for newborns as a Newborn Specialist. I’m passionate about supporting families during the very first and most important stage of their baby’s life, creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment.

👶 Specialized Newborn Care:
I provide attentive care including feeding support (breast or bottle), diaper changes, hygiene, soothing techniques, and establishing gentle sleep routines, always following the parents’ preferences and guidance.

🍼 Parental Support:
I assist parents in developing healthy routines and offer reassurance and basic guidance to help them feel confident and supported during the adjustment period.

💖 Families describe me as caring, responsible, patient, and detail-oriented. My priority is always the baby’s well-being and the parents’ peace of mind, ensuring respectful, loving, and professional care at all times.
