About
As a board-certified pediatric nurse practitioner, I specialize in comprehensive infant care using a detailed developmental and feeding-focused approach. I work closely with parents to address common newborn challenges like colic, reflux, and breastfeeding concerns through evidence-based assessment and personalized guidance. I'm accepting new patients for virtual consultations and take time to understand each family's unique situation and goals.
Services offered
I provide comprehensive telehealth consultations for infants from birth through the first year of life, focusing on feeding optimization, growth monitoring, and developmental assessment. My approach combines careful history-taking, virtual examination techniques, and parent education to identify and manage common infant concerns including reflux, colic, feeding difficulties, and breastfeeding challenges. During a typical session, I review feeding patterns and techniques, assess developmental progress, discuss any concerns with sleep or behavior, and address vaccination questions. I work collaboratively with families to develop practical strategies they can implement at home, and I coordinate with pediatricians and lactation specialists when needed to ensure comprehensive care for your infant.
