Kesmeel's early experience learning how to care for families with newborns was rooted in the wisdom passed down by her grandmother. As a young child she remembered spending countless hours watching as she lovingly attended to the needs of newborns and their families.
During her time working as a nanny she became fascinated by the postpartum period which led her on the path to become a postpartum doula and a newborn care specialist. In 2021 she completed her postpartum training through National Black Doulas Association, became a Newborn care Specialist through Newborn care solutions in 2022 and completed Basic of Lactation Management through Lactation Education Resources in 2023. She became a certified Caring for Newborns Trainer in March 2023 and a certified professional nanny in 2022 through The Worker Institute at Cornell, ILR School.
Kesmeel understands the importance of personalized care which has allowed her to witness the transformative journey of parenthood. Her compassionate presence, preparing nutritious meals, supporting safe sleep practices, providing emotional support and newborn care backed by evidence-based information families can embrace the joy and challenges with confidence and peace of mind.
