Expert live-in newborn care from a certified specialist. I come to you — wherever you are — and give your family the calm, confident start you deserve.
About Peterlyn
My name is Peterlyn, and I've spent the last five years doing what I love most — supporting families through one of life's most beautiful, and most demanding, transitions.
As a Certified Newborn Care Specialist, I bring professional training and genuine warmth to every home I enter. I don't just care for your baby — I integrate into your family, learn your goals from day one, and create a plan tailored to how you want to parent.
I've had the privilege of caring for newborns across the country — from New York City to Aspen to California, Marin County, Florida — working with singletons, twins, preemies, and medically complex cases. I believe every parent deserves rest, reassurance, and the confidence to know their baby is thriving.
Originally from Trinidad and Tobago, I'm based in Tampa, Florida and available to travel anywhere in the US to be with your family.
What I offer
Every engagement begins with a conversation about your goals — sleeping through the night, breastfeeding support, managing multiples, or simply having someone experienced by your side. I build around you.
My most requested service. I take the night shift so you can sleep, recover, and be fully present during the day.
Full-time, live-in support for the first weeks or months of your newborn's life. Ideal for multiples, preemies, or families who want maximum coverage.
Recovery looks different for every parent. I provide practical and emotional support so you can heal while your baby thrives.
Building healthy sleep from the start — gently and intentionally. I create customized routines based on your baby's developmental stage.
Whether it's a second home or a cross-country move, I travel with your family and keep your baby's routine intact.
One of my most important roles is leaving you more confident than when I arrived. I teach, demonstrate, and empower — not just do.
What to expect
My first question on day one is always: what matters most to your family? Everything I do is built around your answer.
New parents pick up on energy. I bring steadiness and warmth into your home from the moment I arrive.
Your family's privacy is sacred. I am discreet, professional, and respectful of your home and household at all times.
Daily handoff notes, feeding logs, and open lines of communication so you always know exactly how your baby is doing.
Breast or bottle, co-sleeping or crib — I support your parenting choices without agenda or opinion.
My goal isn't just to care for your baby — it's to make sure you feel capable and empowered long after I've gone.
What families say
"Peterlyn was an absolute gift to our family. Our daughter was colicky until she came into our lives — her calm, steady presence immediately brought peace to our home. She sleep-trained my daughter, who is now a phenomenal sleeper. I truly didn't want her to leave, and I cannot recommend her highly enough."
"From the very beginning it was clear how deeply caring, attentive, and intentional she is. As first-time parents, Peterlyn taught us so much — not just about caring for our baby, but about trusting ourselves as parents. It's obvious this is more than a job for her; she truly loves what she does, and it shows in the way babies thrive under her care."
"Having worked with two different infant care specialists before, I can say without hesitation that Peterlyn is the most exceptional we have ever worked with. Her ability to anticipate needs — both ours and our baby's — was truly remarkable. She is a true gem, and any family would be incredibly lucky to have her."
"The difference between Peterlyn and other nurses we've had was immediately apparent. On the first day, she asked us our goals and what was most important to our family. She also had the highest EQ of anyone — she was so amazing with my older daughter who was having a hard time adjusting to the new baby."
