Jennifer Bottoms has been a Registered Nurse for 3 years and currently works in Neonatal Intensive Care Units in NYC and Long Island. During that time she has cared for very ill and premature infants, and for babies who have overcome various illnesses and are ready to go home with their families.
Jennifer is knowledgeable in infant care and development, and she regularly prepares new moms and dads for their parental roles upon bringing their infants home from the hospital.
Jennifer decided to begin providing her services because she noticed that there were very few resources that provide parents with hands-on instruction in baby care. As a new mother there were many things that she was unsure about, and there were times when she had questions that couldn't be answered by a book, or basic information that was not provided by her pediatrician.
Jennifer also realized that our communities are lacking in services to help parents sustain their relationships with each other as well as nurture the bonds within their families. Her mission is to fill that void and help parents feel more confident caring for their babies and assist parents in the transition into parenthood and family life.
Jennifer has a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and obtained her Bachelors of Science in Nursing at Columbia University School of Nursing. She is also a Certified Infant Massage Teacher and a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician.
