Nest Postpartum

My last pregnancy was a challenging one, especially during covid. By the end, I was experiencing a lot of exhaustion and burnout, and wasn’t physically able to keep up with household tasks or chase after two busy toddlers. The days felt like survival, and lots of the time I felt like I was drowning. I knew I needed help, but I was bogged down by mom guilt and hesitant to reach out.Calling Cristy was the best decision I could have made during those hard last weeks of pregnancy. She didn’t just swoop in and take over for me - rather, she held me up. She came alongside me and did what needed to be done so that I could be the best mom, wife, and self. Meal prep, grocery pick-up, laundry, toy tidying, floor cleaning, dish washing, baking, organizing, playing/helping with the kids, setting up the house for baby, emotional support, etc. My weeks started to feel less like total chaos/survival, and more like I was getting through, even enjoying the time. Not only did she help me prepare for my baby’s arrival, she also helped me excitedly anticipate my new little one, as she supported, encouraged, and affirmed me. I noticed significant differences in my physical and mental well-being with her support, as I was able to care for myself, my kids, and my unborn baby without feeling so overwhelmed.Cristy’s passion for supporting moms around the transition of a new baby is so evident in all she does. She joyfully does whatever she can so that her clients can have the best well-being possible in the perinatal and postpartum seasons. She goes above and beyond to care for those she works with - from surprise Starbucks treats to thoughtful advice. Having her around for prenatal support impacted our whole family, and we are so incredibly grateful.

Cristy is an absolute angel! Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail is like no other. In the short time that we’ve known each other I can confidently say that she is one of the best humans I have ever met! She truly cares about a new mothers recovery and is dedicated to keeping the mother and the children safe, happy and comfortable. You will not regret allowing Cristy into your home to care for you and your children during your fourth trimester!

Christi is absolutely amazing. I had post partum anxiety after the birth of my first son and didn’t sleep a wink for 4 months. My husband and I fought often and I thought hating maternity leave was normal. I swore I wouldn’t do that to myself with our second child. I was very nervous hiring a stranger to help with my baby, as well as with my 4-year-old and felt guilty even thinking about doing it. After the first meeting with her I felt 100% at ease and confident in the decision to hire her. From baking muffins, to playing with my older son, and even a sleep-over so I could get some much needed rest, the entire experience was amazing. I would pay Christi a million times over for what she did for me and my family.

It’s always hard asking for help as a new mom. Especially delegating tasks to friends/family that you feel you should be able to do yourself. I was nervous to have someone come into my home to help but after the first meeting with Cristy I was completely at ease. I never once felt judged or ashamed and she helped relieve so much anxiety around some of the household tasks I wasn’t able to get around to finishing. It allowed me time to rest, take care of myself and enjoy my newborn. Worth every penny, and one of the best things you could gift yourself or another new mom. I only wish I had her for my first baby!
