Easing the transition to parenthood.
Supporting families with hands-on instruction and expert guidance.
Founder
Jeannie Fennell, the founder of Goodnight Babies, has a natural gift for helping others that has been honed by twenty years of experience in infant care. In 2009, she started her own business on the urging of her clients, who dubbed her the “baby whisperer." Since then, the business has grown through word of mouth and the reputation of a phenomenal team of women who are willing to go above and beyond to offer personalized service.
Goodnight Babies specializes in offering support during the critical first few months of a baby's life.
Our night nurses provide physical, emotional, and educational support as you develop a sleeping and feeding schedule for your newborn, while our professional doulas ensure the best possible birthing experiences by acting as a guide, source of support and comfort, and medical advocate. Helpful for any family, our services are particularly essential for parents of multiples, preemies, or babies with special needs.
Your family is our family.
The women of Goodnight Babies are hand-picked for their excellence and experience with infant care, and have completed first aid training and an inclusive background check. Members of the team are available to travel with clients, ensuring that families would have the support they need regardless of location.
