“Though at times I thought the twin boys would never sleep through the night, they pulled through at the very end of (Billie’s) time with us. Thank you for everything but most importantly the gift of sleep.”
– Kim S (Bloomington, IL)
“From the outset, Billie demonstrated a remarkable sense of ownership in her work. She took the lead in establishing a daily routine for our baby, which laid a strong foundation for consistent care and an effective schedule in the weeks that followed. One of Billie’s most impressive qualities is her ability to take charge when necessary while remaining flexible and open to new ideas. Her expertise, professionalism, and compassion were invaluable, and we only wish we could have extended her time with us..”
– Jiali C (Boston, MA)
“Billie demonstrated an impressive level of knowledge and expertise in all aspects of newborn care, including feeding, sleep training, and overall health and develop. We were not sure if we would need this kind of support. We did not have a Newborn Specialist with our first kiddo. Hiring Billie was the best decision. We were able to rest, which meant we were better able to engage with our older daughter and our newborn. We did not feel like we missed out on any of the newborn milestones or memories – quite the opposite…we were better able to appreciate them.”
– Corley H (Ketchum, ID)
“She has experience and knowledge to share about so many areas, like feeding, sleeping, soothing, changing, playtime, baby products, car seats, strollers, breastfeeding, pumping, preparation for travelling outside of the home, diapers, scheduling, and preparing for changes as infants grow. We are wise beyond our age thanks to Billie’s insight.”
– Tommy A & Jenn A (Fort Lauderdale, FL)
“One specific skill that stood out was how adept she was at aiding our infant in transitioning from the swaddle stage to having both arms out during sleep. This transition went smoother than we anticipated, which speaks to her understanding of infant care.”
– Nicole T (Chicago, IL)
“Billie has a lovely personality and is very knowledgeable.”
– Chris D (New England)
“We had so many sleeping issues with our older child. I had no idea a service like this existed before we spoke with Billie, so I was skeptical. In the 3 months Billie was with our family, our baby was sleeping through the night. I’m a believer!”
– Tyler K (New Orleans, LA)
“Billie is proactive in communication and is a team player.”
– Stacy D (Dallas/Fort Worth, TX)
“Billie is reliable, flexible and trustworthy.”
– James B (New Orleans, LA)
“We cannot express how valuable it was to have Billie in our home. Before she started with us, Billie checked in frequently and helped us prepare for the arrival of our daughter. By the time she finished with us, our daughter went to bed consistently at the same time and slept through the night.”
– Stacy H (New Orleans, LA)
“Billie is professional, thoughtful, and organized.”
– Kali P (Ocean City, NJ)
“Billie helped us tremendously in caring for our daughter. She was able to teach us techniques that worked with her in a seamless way and now she is a better sleeper than our friend’s older babies.”
– Kavita I (Birmingham, AL)
“As soon as Billie walked in and held our baby, she had an aura of comfort that put us at ease. Her knowledge in newborn care is vast and more than any help I have experienced. She has a strong command on child psychology and understands what the child needs and how to handle it.”
– Mishaal S (Jersey City, NJ)
“We retained Billie’s services when our son was 4M and ready to start sleep training. She came in and taught us about darkening the nursery and some other sleep tips. She was able to get him to sleep long stretches within 65% of the time we had pre-arranged.”
– Arlo P (Denver, CO)
“We weren’t ready for our NCS to leave and she recommended Billie. They made the transition seamless between them. I really enjoyed having Billie as a part of our family during this time period and am excited to follow her life as a turtle.”
– Nicole S (Chicagoland, IL)
“The first thing that I think about with Billie is safety and product knowledge. We had been using a baby product which Billie immediately brought to our attention that this device is under a class action lawsuit! How is this still on the market?? As a new mom, I was so appreciative that she knew this and was able to tell me before it could cause harm to my child.”
– Gianna L (Chicagoland, IL)
“My SIL recommended an NCS and I was able to find Billie. She was able to figure out the best setup for her and baby to allow me to breastfeed but still sleep at night. My older boys feel like they need to entertain any and all new people, but Billie being aware of this was able to do everything needed without them being aware she was even there.”
– Beth M (Chicagoland, IL)
“Our family lives in Asia and we returned for a week. I knew a 6M would struggle with time difference. Billie was a miracle worker to step in and help make this as smooth as possible.”
– Lauren B (Chicagoland, IL)
“We had a doula for our 1st child and she was able to come for our 2nd but wasn’t willing to come to Chicago when it was time to move. She recommended Billie and she was the perfect fit to our family. She went beyond just taking care of the baby by helping our family with the transition of this, as well as moving into such a large city.”
– Indie G (Chicago, IL)
“Meeting Billie, I thought I met a real-life Mary Poppins. I was relaxed in my final stage of my pregnancy, but my toddler was used to having me just to himself so I wasn’t sure how he would take to a new baby. I was hiring Billie to help with the new baby, but she had so many suggestions on how to help my toddler embrace his new sibling.”
– Niki K (Chicago, IL)
“Billie was very good.”
– Niki G (Chicago, IL)
“Billie was punctual and documented all diapers and bottles.”
– Chloe R (Chicago, IL)
“Billie is very accountable and stable in her personality.”
– Tim N (Chicagoland, IL)
“Billie was referred to join us after my son’s 2nd surgery to correct his cleft lip and palate. His constant crying due the pain and difficulties eating was such a stressful time for me. Her ability to remain calm gave me such confidence in her abilities.”
– Isaac M (Chicagoland, IL)
“When returning from Europe, I had a family emergency which meant an unexpected stop in Chicago. Since my family would be involved with the emergency, I wanted to find outside childcare. Billie was very flexible with me on the uncertainty of my needs and in dealing with my 8M old adjusting to the time change.”
– Susan C (San Francisco, CA)
“As first time parents with little family nearby, Billie’s experience and wealth of knowledge made our transition to new parenthood feel so much easier. She took the anxiety out of all the major milestones in a way that felt safe, educational and supportive.”
– Tori F (Chicagoland, IL)
“I was preparing to go back to work and the only way our 4wk old would sleep is when we were holding him. I was referred to Billie and I am so glad I was. She told us the questions to ask our doctor and we learned that he was suffering from reflux. She taught us some techniques to help him feel better and sleep better.”
– Megan A (Chicago, IL)
“This was not baby #1 for me but I was still the over anxious mom. Billie was great to help calm me down. She would tell me how people have been raising babies for generations and they have survived. She would help me to focus on the simple things and spending time with my new little one which really helped my anxiety.”
– Fiona K (Chicagoland, IL)
“Our son has a minor surgical procedure which made him uncomfortable with any pressure on either ear. Billie was able to come in and tend to him each night until he was feeling better. We enjoyed the extra sleep we were getting so much that we decided she needed to stay until she had him sleeping for 9 hour stretches each night.”
– Nathan D (Chicago, IL)
“We had worked with an NCS before Billie but weren’t ready for her to leave us with our twins so she recommended Billie. Billie stepped in seamlessly with our family. We were so happy to have her.”
– Shawna K (Chicagoland, IL)
“Our son was 4M and a terrible sleeper when we connected with Billie. She never seemed to be judging me that my son woke multiple times throughout the night or that he didn’t even remotely follow a schedule. She focused on teaching him (and probably more us) ‘good sleep habits’. We only needed her for just under a month. Within that time our son was able to sleep long stretches at night and was doing much better during the day too.”
– Margaret T (Chicago, IL)
“We connected with Billie about a month before my due date. I immediately liked her direct and helpful persona. We invited her to the hospital to meet our little one on day 1 and then she offered to come back the next day to help assist our family in getting home. As our time continued, I found this helpfulness to be consistent, and as a new mom I really appreciated that.”
– Amanda G (Chicago, IL)
“After spending a month with a new baby in the NICU, I needed sleep. Billie was great at coordinating with me to arrive after my older twins went to sleep, in order to not disrupt their bedtime. She knew exactly what to do with my preemie and I felt completely safe with her watching him overnight so this tired mommy could get some much-needed sleep.”
– Maggie C (Chicago, IL)
