Seeking a career that makes a difference in the lives of new parents?
You’re in the right place!
Support New Parents, Transform Lives: Become a New Parent Educator!
Hi, I’m Jaquie,
I’m a Certified Professional New Parent Educator through the Perinatal Professionals Association, as well as a Postpartum Doula and Pediatric Sleep Consultant. I’m also a New Parent Educator Trainer with New Horizon’s Training Network.
When I was expecting my first child, I felt confident I was ready to embrace motherhood and enjoy every moment with my baby girl. I was sure I “had what it takes.” But the reality was different—while I was overjoyed, I also felt overwhelmed, exhausted, and alone.
Today, I support new and expecting parents in making their transition to parenthood smoother, and I train others who feel called to this meaningful work. If you’re curious about becoming a PPA Certified Professional New Parent Educator, book a free info call to learn more.
