Adventure Nannies On Air Ep 45: Prioritizing Self-Care + Authenticity Alongside The Demands Of Newborn Care With Lauren Wilson

 

 

 

 

 

We are so excited to welcome Lauren Wilson to our podcast this week, and remember: you can find Adventure Nannies On Air wherever you listen to podcasts!

 

 

We are so honored to host the remarkable Lauren Wilson – a highly-skilled Postpartum Doula, Elite Newborn Care Specialist, owner of Barefoot Babies, and devoted Infant/Toddler Nanny on the pod this week! In this episode, Lauren, a nonbinary professional, shares their unique journey of authenticity and self-expression within the somewhat conservative domain of childcare and nannying. In this candid conversation, they open up about their experiences navigating gender identity and professionalism, and the vital importance of self-care amidst the demanding overnight shifts and long hours that come with the territory of newborn care.

Join Danielle and Lauren as they delve into the intricate balance of staying true to oneself while excelling professionally in a job that you love, and the importance of connecting with nature as a conduit of peace and balance. In celebration of LGBTQIA Pride Month, and celebrating pride and inclusivity 365 days a year, this episode is a heartfelt peek into embracing your identity, and the strength of character it takes to be genuinely you in every aspect of life.

In this episode, you will also learn more about Lauren’s RIE®- and Pikler®-inspired methods for promoting natural motor development in infants, their passion for empowering parents to trust their intuition, and their dedication to cultivating a peaceful and supportive environment for families during the often dynamic postpartum period. Get ready for an engaging and inspiring conversation that showcases the power of self-belief, dedication, and the courage to embrace your true self. Be sure to head to the Barefoot Babies website to learn more about Lauren’s remarkable work! We want to thank Lauren for sharing their extraordinary story with us in this particularly moving episode.
