About
I specialize in comprehensive infant care using evidence-based assessment and individualized treatment planning for newborns through early infancy. I focus on identifying feeding difficulties, growth concerns, and developmental variations through detailed history-taking and virtual observation techniques, then work collaboratively with families to implement practical strategies that support optimal infant health and development. I'm available for telehealth consultations throughout North Carolina, making specialized neonatal nurse practitioner care accessible from your home.
Services offered
I provide telehealth-based infant care for newborns and infants experiencing feeding challenges, including breastfeeding difficulties, formula tolerance issues, and poor weight gain. I assess for reflux, colic, and other common newborn conditions using parent-reported observations and virtual examination techniques. My approach emphasizes parent education, positioning modifications, feeding technique optimization, and coordination with pediatric primary care. During telehealth visits, I conduct detailed feeding assessments, review growth charts and developmental milestones, discuss feeding schedules and strategies, and provide evidence-based recommendations for common infant health concerns, helping families navigate the early postpartum period with confidence.
