Parenthood+
My Story
In 2016, I earned my Bachelor's degree from Anna Maria College. There, I majored in Human Development/Human Services with a concentration in Early Childhood.
When my husband and I started our family, I had the privilege of running a home daycare business. This allowed me to gain a tremendous amount of hands on experience with newborn thru school age!
So, how did we get here?
After the birth of our second child, I decided it was time to embark on a new adventure. I craved the opportunity to build an online platform that could better serve the families in my surrounding neighborhoods while giving me the opportunity to continue being home if needed, with my boys!
That's when I created Parenthood+
What do I offer?
First, I launched Grow With Me Photography! Taking pictures has always been a unique hobby of mine and a true passion! I love every minute behind the camera!
But that's not all!
One day, I was comparing my two pregnancies. I thought about how I "failed" at breastfeeding with my first and how I was better educated and supported this time around. After having a successful bf journey, I realized immediately that I wanted to become a breastfeeding peer counselor so that I could help other moms like me! I hope you and I can connect to achieve all of your breastfeeding goals!
Still reading? We're definitley connecting!
With the closing of my home daycare, I brainstormed how I could use my level of expertise to continue helping parents, outside of the daycare world!
After many well trained years in childcare and first hand experience as a mother of two, I would be honored to join your family and be part of your adventures in Parenthood!
It takes a village, right?
Parenthood brings forth a lot of new emotions. As someone who has struggled with anxiety since my childhood, I am more mindful of my mental health now in adulthood. I can't stress enough the importance of taking care of YOURSELF while caring for your little one. Something we don't acknowledge enough is postpartum anxiety & depression. It is extremely helpful to stay active!
Join me for an online Caregiver & Me experience! Classes will be a mixture of children's yoga and dance. This is a fun and healthy opportunity to bond with your littles, from the comfort of your own home!
Namaste & Dance with Shay
