…because this season is priceless, full of all your baby’s firsts. First breaths, first smiles, first steps, and all the tiny moments in between that shape their incredible journey through their first year of life. These fleeting milestones deserve to be cherished and remembered forever.
…because what you’re doing is profound. You’re nurturing, loving, and guiding your baby as they grow and change before your eyes. It’s a season of transformation, not just for them, but for you as well, as you embrace the joys and challenges of parenthood.

2. Plan
Using your estimated due date as a guide, we’ll penciling in sessions according to the following timeline:

- Newborn – within baby’s 1st month, usually around 10-14 days.
- Sitter – around 6-9 months

6-8 weeks before each session, I’ll touch base to finalize a date and give specific guidance to help you style, plan, and prepare for each session.
