Know Exactly What To Do With Your Baby, Before You’re Alone With Them At 2am.

You're doing everything "right".
Taking the classes, setting up the nursery, ticking all the boxes.

But you keep thinking...

What happens when we actually get home

You know birth is one day.

But the days after?

That's the part no one really explains.

You don't want to be learning your baby for the first time when you're exhausted...

and they're crying...

and you're not sure what they need.

You can prepare for birth.
And still feel completely unprepared for what comes after.

People tell you to trust your instincts.

That you’ll learn as you go.

That you’ll just… figure it out.

But “figuring it out” looks like feeding them… then changing them… then rocking them…

and still not knowing why nothing’s working.

And that’s not the moment you want to be learning.

Because once you’re in it, there’s no stepping back to figure it out.

Most moms focus on getting everything ready: the stroller, the nursery, all the right things.

And they take a birth class.

But birth is one day.

Then you go home.

And that’s when it’s just you, and your baby, and a whole lot of moments no one really prepared you for.

How to settle them.

How to know what’s normal.

How to respond without second-guessing everything you’re doing.

That’s the part that shapes your experience.

That’s what creates that calm, connected newborn bubble everyone talks about.

Not instinct. Knowing what you’re doing before you’re in it.

You can’t Google this

“Prenatal classes help you prepare for baby's delivery and immediate after care, but no one prepares you for what to expect in the first 12 weeks. Jaquie's course informed us of what is normal, what to do, best practices and tips and tricks we couldn't have gotten off of Googling. Jaquie’s experience and knowledge removed our anxiety.”

- Wendy S.

Everything you need to care for your newborn without figuring it out as you go.

Right now, you’re preparing as best you can.

Reading things. Saving posts. Trying to piece together what those first few weeks might actually look like.

But it still feels a bit… unclear.

What happens when they won’t settle?

What’s normal?

What’s not?

When do you trust it? And when do you do something different?

This is where that changes.

Instead of piecing it together in the moment, you’ll understand what’s happening. And what to do next.

Instead of second-guessing every decision, you’ll know how to respond.

And instead of walking into those first weeks hoping you’ll figure it out…you’ll walk in prepared.

This is what you get inside Surviving the 4th Trimester.

Because confidence doesn’t come from instinct.

It comes from understanding what you’re looking at. And knowing how to respond.

Inside, you’ll learn what’s actually happening with your baby, what matters (and what doesn’t), and how to handle the moments that tend to throw new moms the most.

So when it’s 2am, and your baby’s crying…

You pause.

You recognize what’s going on.

You know what to do.

And the moms who seem calm, capable, and like they’ve got it handled in those early weeks?

They’re not doing anything special.

They’ve just learned this, before they needed it.

And it’s something you can learn too.

A New Parent Educator, Postpartum Doula, Pediatric Sleep Consultant, and mom of two.

I’ve helped hundreds of women walk into those first weeks feeling calm, capable, and clear on what to do when their baby needs them.

And I created Surviving the 4th Trimester because this is the course I wish I had before I brought my own babies home, when I still had the space to learn, without the pressure of figuring it out in real time.

I’m Jaquie Dason,

Here’s what this actually looks like inside.

Before your baby arrives, you’ll move through short, practical lessons that walk you through exactly what to expect. And what to do.

So when you’re home, sleep-deprived, and in it, you’re not trying to learn everything for the first time.

You’re recognizing what’s happening. And responding with confidence.

Here’s what you’ll get inside:

38 short video
lessons

So you can actually take this in. Even if you’re tired, distracted, or watching between everything else you’ve got going on.

Printable guides & checklists

So you don’t have to remember everything in the moment. You’ve got something to come back to when you need it.

Ongoing access beyond pregnancy

Access videos anytime, anywhere, even after your baby is born. Re-watch videos in real-time while you’re caring for your baby.

Focus your energy on the excitement of a baby coming into your life

“Before starting the course, we felt anxious and unprepared. We had no idea what to do when we had to bring the baby home from the hospital. However, once we started the course, all those feelings disappeared quickly, like blazing quickly. You leave the course thinking, “Yeah, I can do this”. It makes things less scary and allows us to focus our energy on the excitement of a baby coming into our lives very soon.”

- Elizabeth & Kevin V.


We walk through everything you’re likely to face in those first 12 weeks so nothing feels like it’s coming out of nowhere.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to prepare in a way that actually helps (not just buying more stuff)

  • What those early moments really look like—and what to focus on first

  • What’s normal, what’s not, and how to take care of yourself while caring for your baby

  • How to read their cues, what their behaviour means, and how to respond

  • What to expect, what works, and how to navigate it without second-guessing yourself

  • How to help your baby settle, what’s realistic, and how to approach sleep in those early weeks

  • What’s changing, when, and what actually matters (so you’re not overthinking every little thing)

  • So you’re not constantly asking, “am I doing this right?”

So instead of being thrown into it and trying to piece things together as you go…you’ve already seen it. You’ve already learned it.

You know what to do.

A lot of people say they’ll just figure it out when the baby gets here.

And you probably could.

But it would look like trying to learn everything while you’re exhausted

while your baby is crying…

while you’re still recovering yourself.

And that’s a lot to carry all at once.

This is your chance to learn it before you’re in the middle of it.

When you have the space to actually take it in.

To understand what you’re looking at.

To feel ready.

So when those moments come…

You’re not scrambling to work it out.

You already know.
