"Lauren came to us as a recommendation from close friends and she was immediately part of our family. She swooped in and provided so much education and help with my 2 month old daughter. I was a first time mom, fish out of water and she was a professional. With her gentle recommendations and guidance my daughter was sleeping 7 + hours a night and taking 4 scheduled naps a day in TWO days! Previously she was awake most of the day with only 30 minute Naps. It was invaluable to my ability to be a Mom. I went from zombie tired Mom to active engaged mom."

"She was very professional, always on time, kind, and took such great care of my twin girls. She would sing with the girls, come up with new play activities for them, take them on walks and play on the floor with them - everything I could ask for. Lauren also kept my girls on their schedule- which was super important to me. She was always willing to go above and beyond for our family - she took such amazing care of our girls—and we would have been lost without her. I am so grateful our paths crossed while we were living in Chicago!"

"As a first-time mom, I had plenty of anxiety when it came to handing off my baby. Before we met Lauren, we did not believe that we'd feel comfortable leaving our child in anyone else's care. Lauren quickly dashed our fears.
She's amazing with babies. She is well versed in normal newborn appearance and behavior and knows when something is off. Lauren knew how important breastfeeding was to me and it was such a relief to have up-to-date info and support. Finally, Lauren is terrific with helping children achieve important milestones. I highly recommend her to any parents looking for someone to care for their little one."
- Denise
"Lauren is terrific and I highly recommend her to any parents"
