What We Cover During Newborn Coaching
Newborn coaching gives you space to ask the small questions that often feel big at home.
Feeding and Diapering
We review infant feeding basics, including breastfeeding, bottle feeding, formula feeding, hunger cues, fullness cues, and feeding schedule questions. You can also ask about burping, gas relief, diapering, wet diapers, baby poop, and diaper rash.
Basic Sleep and Soothing Questions
We talk through newborn sleep, baby sleep, wake windows, and simple sleep routine ideas. Guidance may include bedtime routine, swaddling, soothing, calming a fussy baby, identifying crying baby patterns, bassinet setup, crib use, back sleeping, and room-sharing
Baby Care Basics
Parents can ask about everyday baby-care basics such as safe handling, diapering, bathing routines, nursery setup, and common questions that come up during the first weeks at home.
Parent Confidence and Routine Support
We help with bonding, skin-to-skin, baby cues, newborn routine, fourth-trimester support, and reassurance for overwhelmed or anxious parents.
How New Parent Coaching Service Works
The process should feel simple from the beginning.
1. Share What Feels Difficult
Tell us what feels confusing, stressful, or hard to manage right now.
2. Get Clear, Practical Guidance
A newborn care professional answers your questions and explains realistic options for your family.
3. Leave With a Simple Plan
Receive clear notes and practical next steps you can use at home with confidence.
Parent coaching for new parents helps families understand their options and make informed decisions without judgment.
What You Will Leave With
- Clearer feeding expectations for your baby’s daily routine
- Safer sleep setup notes you can follow at home
- Simple soothing techniques for fussy moments
- A better understanding of diaper tracking and baby cues
- Clarity on which concerns need a pediatrician
- Practical reassurance, not just general information
A parenting coach for new parents helps you feel clearer and more prepared. Families often need reassurance as much as practical guidance. Our new parent coaching specialist approach provides both in a calm, supportive way.

Catherine had been an incredible night nurse for our family. She is caring, compassionate, and easy to schedule on short notice.

We had the most fantastic experience with Kiesha providing overnight care for our newborn. Kiesha is professional, nurturing, kind, and we felt she really took the time to get to know our sweet baby. We also loved working with Nicky during our search for a good match for our family. Nicky and Kiesha have made a difference in our lives!Posted on Google![]()

I loved my experience with them! As a first time mom who had a c-section, having Aggie over for the first week allowed me to rest and recover while knowing my baby was cared for. Aggie is so lovely, warm and knowledgeable and I am so grateful for her! Would highly recommend.Posted on Google![]()

I worked with rock-a-bye-baby for night nannying when both of my children were born and highly recommend Nicky, Dahlia and their team. From the first communication with Nicky, I felt comfortable and supported. She check-in on us in the lead up to the birth and was very flexible with our evolving schedule and needs before and after our babies arrived. We most recently had the pleasure of working with Dahlia, who cared for our daughter from the time she was a few days old until she was a few months old. Dahlia has decades of experience caring for newborns and she not only helped us get much needed sleep in the early days but also worked to instill great sleep habits in our daughter. Dahlia's style centered around what worked best for our baby as opposed to a one-sized-fits-all approach and always communicated the different technics she used to ensure it worked for us as well. The gentle conditioning set our family up for success, with our daughter sleeping through the night when she was around 2 months old and providing my husband and I with the tools to work through any future sleep challenges. I am incredibly thankful to rock-a-bye-baby for helping us and our babies sleep!Posted on Google![]()

A truly wonderful experience with Rock A Bye Baby!! Incredibly knowledgeable, kind and experienced. At a time when you need the most support, the team was there. Excellent communication prior, during and after. We used Nicky for our 2nd newborn and months later when we needed additional overnight support. This truly helped with my physical and mental recovery. Highly recommend!
