“We hired Camila to help us care for our newborn when she was 3 weeks old. Having Camila around lifted a huge weight off our shoulders. Becoming a parent is so challenging and we were underprepared for many aspects (e.g., weight gain issues, exclusively pumping). It was a big turning point when she started working with us, and we finally felt like things were getting better and more sustainable.
She worked with us for a total of 4 months, providing both night time support and expert guidance for ensuring my daughter was hitting her milestones and creating good eating/sleeping habits. It was clear from day 1 that she had a lot of experience with babies and was very comfortable taking care of them (both at night and in the day). We felt very comfortable leaving our daughter in her care which made it easier for us to focus on recovering and our own health.
Camila is extremely professional, kind, empathetic, and trustworthy. She also has a big network and helped us to find daytime nanny care which we were striking out on. She really puts the needs of the child first and I would highly recommend anyone considering getting a NCS to work with her.”

Camila provided night support to me and my newborn baby from day (night) one. She is so warm and loving with babies; my daughter was completely comfortable and would pass out in her arms after screaming at me all day. Having Camila’s help was indispensable to me in those exhausting first weeks. I looked forward to her arrival each time, and though I was exhausted I’d stay up to chat with her.”

I recently hired Camila as a newborn care specialist to help with the care of my newborn and I am so grateful for the support she provided. From the moment she arrived, she was professional and compassionate, and she quickly became an invaluable member of our family.
Camila was able to take over the majority of the overnight feeding and diaper changes, allowing my partner and me to get some much-needed rest. This made a huge difference in our ability to function during the day and helped us to better care for our baby.
In addition to providing practical support, Camila was also a wealth of knowledge when it came to newborn care. She answered all of our questions and gave us valuable advice on everything from feeding and sleeping to development and milestones.
Overall, I highly recommend hiring Camila to any new parents. The support and expertise she provides can be a lifesaver during those early, overwhelming weeks. Camila was a true blessing and we are grateful to have had her by our side.”

"I am a first-time Mom to my (barely) 2 months old son at the time. I was mentally and physically exhausted. Camila came to my aid and provided a calming presence, encouraging words, and thoughtful advice. She is knowledgeable, honest, and kind. I was struggling with breastfeeding at the time; she provided accurate information and thoughtful options so that I can feel comfortable with my decisions. She comforted me when I felt the lowest during the initial months of motherhood. She was also one of the only providers that I entrusted my son with (for the first time) when we had to be away for a day due to a family emergency. I highly recommend Camila. She is someone I can trust with my little one!"

We first met Camila in March 2021 when our son was 7 months old. What was immediately clear was her warmth, patience and genuine care for our son. Her care and devotion is heartwarming. She provides a very high level of care with attention to even the smallest detail. She ensures variety in the activities they do, planning museum outings, daily park trips and everything from dance parties to finger painting. Camila shares pictures, stories of their day and is such a warm and considerate person. Camila was so helpful in many milestones, from introducing food to weaning off the bottle, from crawling to walking. She always had great ideas of how to manage any transition and help us through it. We have always felt at ease with her in our home. Camila was with us for a year and a half, and we miss her dearly.
Camila had our son stay at her own home for 2 days and a night while we attended a wedding. She created a safe space in her home and planned a fun itinerary to keep him active and make him feel comfortable. He had the best time!
Thank you, Camila, from the bottom of our hearts. We look forward to spending time together and keeping in touch as she has such a big impact on our lives and the life of our son. Amamos você. Muito obrigada!”

Camila has been a trusted part of our family from when our son was 10 months to about 2.5 years and transitioning to preschool. We did a nanny share with her and another family with a son around the same age. She is endlessly patient, loving, and fun with the boys. Our son always comes home so happy, hungry, and tired and which helps make sure he gets a good night’s sleep. Camila is also so thoughtful and makes this new mom feel appreciated. She comes up with the cutest Mother’s and Father’s Day gifts and our son is always involved in putting them together. We are honestly so sad we won’t be seeing her regularly, but we know she’ll always be part of our family. You can trust Camila to help you through milestones with your child. From sleep training to teething, to independent play (and even learning some Portuguese!) she really is such a knowledgeable childcare provider, and your kids will really grow to love and trust her too. ”
