Meet The Team

Hi, my name is Jennifer. Our clients and those close to me know me as “Jen”. I was born and raised in Austin, Texas. I have been married for over 20 years and have 2 children. We have a 15 year old son and a 10 year old daughter. In our spare time we love traveling, hosting gatherings with family and friends, and supporting our Texas teams! We also LOVE going to the many lakes and pools Austin and the surrounding areas have to offer.

Prior to joining the team in February 2019, I worked at Seton main in the postpartum unit for 15 years. I really enjoyed helping moms with postpartum care and coaching them as new parents. During my time at Seton, I helped a friend part time with occasional night nanny work and realized what I was missing. I needed more time with my moms and newborns to develop a bond during these special moments and in a more personal setting.

Since joining the team in 2019, I have furthered my love for the “in-home” postpartum experience. It is so rewarding assisting moms with breastfeeding support, establishing a night time routine, and sleep training on a more personal level. Oh and I can’t forget all the baby cuddles, the best perk! I look forward to meeting you and supporting your family!

Hi there! I am Ruby, the second oldest of six children, two of which were born after I turned 18 so I had a front row seat and daily role in raising two of my younger siblings. I may not be a mother in the traditional sense, but I took on a maternal role in my household from a young age. I absolutely LOVE caring for others. In my free time, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my loved ones.

In high school I was in the ROTC program, although I did not choose the military as my career path, I gained invaluable leadership training and professional development which have served me well both personally and professionally. Unsure of my career path, right out of high school I started working. I held various jobs, two of my favorites were working as a Starbucks barista which I did for more than two years while also working as a clinical assistant in a cardiac practice here in Austin for a little more than three years. Of the jobs I held, those two taught me I needed to work with people and I wanted to work in the medical field or caring for people in some capacity.

The knowledge and experience I have absorbed working along side Heather has been both intense and inspiring. It has ignited a passion in me for the entire postpartum experience. I feel so lucky I get to feed and snuggle babies overnight, help moms nurse their newborns if they choose to breastfeed, provide moms a much needed restful night sleep and position them to enjoy their babies during the day. Thank you for allowing me to snuggle your babies and support you on your postpartum journeys, I look forward to working with your family.

I am a true Texan!! Never lived anywhere but this great state. However, I do like to travel and explore new places. I also enjoy nature, hiking, true crime podcasts, plants and gardening. I have 2 nephews and 4 nieces who are my world!! I am very involved in their lives and enjoy being the BEST AUNT EVER!!! I am originally from a small town and hold on to my small town values and morals. I find enjoyment in spending time with family and friends, volunteering and practicing my faith. I respect, value and love all! 

Throughout my professional career, I have been fortunate to take on various roles and responsibilities which have strengthened my knowledge as an early childhood professional. In 2002, I graduated from Southwest Texas State University, with a B.S. in Family and Child Development focusing on child studies. I have always known I wanted to work with children and their families in some capacity. Over the years I been a director of various Early childhood programs in Austin, worked for Child Advocacy agencies in San Marcos, taught preschool for over six years, and recently was a Child program specialist Inspector for the State of Texas. I have always been committed to making the lives of the children better and brighter and this work has filled me with a gratitude that is indescribable. 

I initially joined the team part time on the weekends as I enjoyed my job working for the state. After several months and soaking up many baby cuddles, I decided I preferred the schedule and lack of out of town travel this job offered. I also enjoy caring for our clients on a much more personal level.

As a newborn sleep coach, I value the first stages of development. I believe supporting mother, baby, and the entire family unit during the postpartum journey is invaluable. I am committed to supporting every family and assisting them in feeling confident and empowered during our time together. I look forward to working with you and your little ones soon.

I am the oldest of 4 children and began taking care of children at an early age. As a woman unable to have children of my own, I live vicariously through the women around me who have been blessed with motherhood. I have two nephews, ages 18 and 7. They are my world and I can't imagine life without them. Caring for them as babies was tiresome but a fulfilling and immeasurable heart filling experience. Years later I still enjoy soaking up all the LOVE and excitement they bring to my life. 

When COVID was at its peak, I joined the team to help out in a temporary capacity and quickly became addicted to all the baby snuggles. I have seen first hand how critical the steps taken in the first few months can be, to set a child up for success in establishing healthy and consistent sleeping habits. 

I quickly decided I wanted to learn and train more to become an ATX baby whisperer. Since joining the team in late 2020, I have had the privilege of caring for many newborns and their families. I have truly enjoyed getting to know and supporting each family. Working with our clients and their families has been such a privilege and immeasurably rewarding. I look forward to meeting you and working with your family.

Hi there! My name is Makayla, I am the second oldest of SIX. I also have a twin brother, I’m older ;) I have 3 nieces and 1 nephew and they are all under 3! I love being “Auntie Kayla” and spoiling them as much as I can. I am also the proud mama of 2 FUR babies, my 5 month old pups. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with ALL my loved ones, walking my pups or taking them to the dog park, hanging with my bestie, binge watching a new tv series and listening to podcasts, Oh! and I also love karaoke! 

During high school I started working to get out into the workforce and help my family. I held two jobs, a fun one at a clothing store and another at a chain restaurant. After I graduated high school and had more availability I continued working at the restaurant and gave up my fun job to train for a management position. I soon became a manager and 6 and a half years later I was tired of the restaurant industry and wanted something different. A friend of mine loved her job and connected me with Heather. She allowed me to shadow her overnight to see if I might be interested in learning more about sleep training. She also connected me to some of their previous clients for daytime support while I was figuring out the next steps. I started on her team as a date night sitter while still maintaining my job at the restaurant and I quickly wanted to learn all facets of the job and be able to do it ALL and give up the restaurant life! 

I may be the youngest member of the team but I have a thirst for knowledge and am a very hard worker! I have been soaking up all the knowledge, training and experience all while enjoying all the baby snuggles the last year plus on the team has provided. I have learned so much from each family I have supported. I can’t get enough baby time so I am also available for occasional daytime support and have often continued supporting clients occasionally after our nighttime relationship ends for date nights and travel.

Hello! My name is Alexandera, everyone calls me “Alex”. I am a wife and a mother of 6 children, from 6 years to 28! I love spending my free time exploring parks and museums with my younger children. They keep me on my toes and I am constantly learning.

I have a passion for the nursing community and caring for others. My love for nursing started over 20 years ago when I worked private duty caring for seniors at Westminster Senior living community here in Austin. I enjoyed the personal, yet professional role in daily care of the residents. 

As a mother, it has been such a rewarding experience both personally and professionally to assist our clients during these early weeks and months of their postpartum journey. I understand how exhausting and exciting motherhood is...a truly wonderful exhaustion. I am happy I am able to share in our clients' experience. I am hopeful my support provides them relief, comfort and mental peace so they can be rested to enjoy their babies the following day knowing I have taken care of all the little details. I am excited to get to know you and work with your family!

Hi I am Adrian, a breast cancer survivor. My family is my main job! I have been a wife for 24 years and a mother for more than 17. We have 3 boys, ages 17, 14 ands 14. My younger boys are identical, mirror image twins! I can’t believe they are all so grown, it has gone way too fast!! They are my world. I am proud to be a 6th generation Austinite. You can regularly find us on the ball field or the tennis courts as my oldest is in the marching band, my younger boys play football and the other is about to go off to college :( ! As you can imagine they keep me busy and always in the car! When I am not driving them around, I love walking my 8 year old Vizsla, Lexi, and my other fur baby girl, Holly. I also love exploring new recipes in the kitchen. We love to travel when the boys are out of school and we can get a break from our day to day.

Prior to becoming a professional wife and mother, I managed a local flower shop for almost 8 years. I started working there early in my college days and after graduating decided the enjoyment from connecting with all my regular clients and coordinating arrangements for larger events was too fulfilling to leave. However, when I became a mother, I was blessed to be able to stay home and begin raising our family. As a child raised by an amazing single mother who overcame a lot to provide for her family, I felt strongly about being there for my own.

I have had the pleasure of working with ATX Baby Whisperers in a flexible capacity and more on a PRN, or as needed, basis. As you can imagine, it is hard to time the arrival of these little ones and occasionally the rest of the team is maxed out. I have worked with Heather long before she started growing her team and am excited to be a part of this solid team of women. Thank you for letting me snuggle your babies and support you through these sleep deprived weeks and months. I look forward to working with your family

I’m Allyson, you can call me Ally. I was born in South Dakota but was raised in Austin since the age of 7 years old. I am a mom to my wonderful 12 year old  son who is definitely my mini me, only taller! We love watching movies together in our downtime. I have a passion for photography and music and more recently food, my son and I have been loving to explore the world of cooking!! I am also the proud Auntie to my 2 year old nephew and my precious little niece who was just welcomed into our family over the summer. It has been such a treat to be able to offer my sister professional guidance, sleep training, in her time of need.

I have always had a passion deep from within, caring for babies and children. From a very young age, I spent my summers watching children of family and friends. I also visited my dad back home in South Dakota where I would help my mom’s close friend at her in-home day care, caring for babies and toddlers.  I started nannying for various families while in college and years later, I continued to work as a professional nanny as I found it challenging, yet rewarding. I have enjoyed the transition to working as a night nanny. As a mother, I understand how incredibly important getting sleep in those early weeks and months can be. Since joining the team, I have supported many families including moms of multiples. Double the snuggle is such a treat! I look forward to working with your family and having the privilege of snuggling your baby very soon.

Hi there, I’m Cheyenne. I have lived in Austin almost 15 years and love calling it home. I am the oldest of five children. Having a single, working mom gave me the opportunity to play a large, daily role in caring for my much younger siblings. Years later, I am honored they still look up to me as a parental figure, source of advice and comfort. Though I have yet to have children of my own, I do have one fur baby, a cat named Benny, she is very spoiled! When I'm not brushing my cat, I enjoy organizing ALL things and spending time with my boyfriend of 5 years. We love to cook and play games.

I participated in ROTC in both middle school and high school and decided to enlist n the army national guard after high school. After 6 years of service and a little bit of rocket launching, I transitioned back to the work force. I spent some time in retail management before embarking on a more professional career.

I quickly found I had a passion for human resources, specifically, conducting behavioral interviews and recruiting. My time as a behavioral interview specialist has been my most fond professional experience. I had the opportunity to collaborate with many professionals and further develop my leadership and knowledge. Initially I was going to join the team in an administrative capacity but after learning more about the job I quickly fell in love snuggling babies and decided to pivot and train more to become a baby whisperer. I am looking forward to supporting you and your family during this special time.
