The right moment to hire help

Ideally, the moment you choose life to expand your family is the moment to find help.

There is a saying that it takes a village to raise a child, and there exist communities in other cultures where people take this literally. Unfortunately, in our culture, we can't expect our parents, sisters, brothers, or even cousins to come live with us while our babies grow. Mom and Dad usually go through all the phases of pregnancy and postpartum alone. There is nothing to be afraid of, and there is much to learn. However, in our US culture, the industry is growing at its fastest pace each day. Child care professionals have adopted the services of teachers and nurses, and more and more, other agencies are joining our communities to provide complete support to parents. Doulas, postpartum Doulas, lactation consultants, and early baby educators come together to offer new parents all the support they need, beginning in the early stages of pregnancy.

Education and experience are sometimes not necessary when new professionals can prove their education in each field. However, many times, education and experience are obtained by the verified number of years a provider has worked with parents and children.

There are many ways to find help.

Your OB/GYN can recommend reliable child care help, and here is a list you can refer to find help for your family.

  • Agencies,
  • Doulas
  • Word of mouth recommendations
  • Indeed
  • Facebook
  • Online NVS/PPD and Professional Nannies Websites
  • Google search
  • Workforce Commission

On this website, I have collected all the steps necessary to hire the right person. Although it is up to you at what stage of your pregnancy or motherhood you need someone, you might have already decided on the time you anticipate needing help. 

 

If you need help deciding, I can offer the options as your guide.

 

Read books. Choose the books to read from the list to continue with this journey on your own.

Of course, please listen to your OB/GYN recommendations during pregnancy, learn all the classes they provide at the hospital. At the hospital, you will learn all the basics to care for your new baby.
