Frequently Asked Questions

Choose a Prenatal Visit if you are expecting and want to prepare for the newborn period. Choose a Foundations Visit if your baby is here and you would like personalized support with your current questions. Follow-Up Visits are designed for returning families who want to revisit a concern, see how their plan is working, or adjust their next steps.

Prenatal Visits may be booked at any stage of pregnancy to help you prepare for your baby’s arrival. Once your baby is here, Nest & Cradle supports families through the baby’s first three months.

Nest & Cradle was founded by a board-certified neonatologist. Visits are conducted by carefully selected registered nurses and certified physician assistants with newborn-care experience. Each provider also completes Nest & Cradle’s original newborn education training program, developed with input from neonatologists, lactation consultants, and pediatric occupational therapists.

Yes. Feeding is one of the most common topics families bring to their visits. We can discuss breastfeeding, pumping, bottle-feeding, typical newborn feeding patterns, and ways to recognize when additional support may be helpful. Our providers are experienced in newborn feeding education, and Nest & Cradle’s specialized training was developed with input from lactation consultants. When a more specialized lactation assessment is needed, we will recommend connecting with a lactation consultant.
