About Tere
Tere Atri
Certified Newborn Care Specialist
My name is Tere and I worked as a preschool teacher for 15 years. I grew up in Mexico City, where I attended college, and studied Family and Child Development. I have a natural love of babies and children. I’m a very reliable, responsible, approachable and a very positive person.
As a mother, I came to see how important the early years in my children’s life were and the positive impact I had on their growth. In recent years, I have been working as a night nurse. I assist parents with their precious newborn babies. I feed, bathe, soothe, and help the baby regulate a sleep schedule.
My Philosophy
As a Newborn Care Specialist, I am highly experienced in the complete care of babies in the first 3-4 months of life. I specifically care for newborns overnight so that parents can get the rest they need and the postpartum mom can recover. I have extensive knowledge and experience in caring for multiples, preemies, and medically fragile newborns.
I am able and confident in helping to establish good eating and sleeping habits to set the stage for healthy sleep habits early on with the goal of getting the baby to sleep through the night as soon as it is healthy and possible for that individual baby.
From breast feeding, formula feeding, using donor milk, co-sleeping - whatever your choices and decisions may be, I am here to support my clients and help them become confident parents. I also have experience and understanding of Postpartum Mood Disorders, and can help keep the entire family healthy by knowing when to suggest outside help.
I have multiple resources I can provide to my clients in the event that more specialized help is needed. I work with all different types of family dynamics lovingly and without judgement.
