What families say
This organization is amazing. Not only did they ensure that we were getting ample sleep every night, they also sleep trained our son in the process, so by the time they finished, our little guy was sleeping through the night to about 7 AM every morning.
If I have one piece of advice for any new parents, it would be to call North Light Newborns! We worked with Katie and Cayla for the first six weeks postpartum, five nights a week, and from my very first phone call with Katie, I could tell we would be in great hands and really knew how to care for newborns.
I don’t even know how to begin to tell everyone how vital Katie, Sara, and Mollie were in surviving the first few months with our son. Katie and Sara were knowledgeable, and patient. They helped me figure out nighttime breastfeeding, and supported me through the sleepless nights.
We had an amazing experience with North Light Newborns and Cayla! I contacted North Light Newborns when my baby was 4 weeks old because she was waking up every hour and I was getting almost no sleep. They responded immediately and Cayla was able to start the following week.
