Hello, my name is Edrina Gilbert! I'm a birth & postpartum doula. I am a military wife and mother of two. I became interested in becoming a doula after experiencing my birth without my mom by my side due to health complications. I was young, it was challagening and I was yearning for that nuturishing, advocating soul to be present with me. With my second pregnancy I decided to get a doula because me and my husband was unsure if he would be deployed or not. I realized how much having a doula made a difference and it definitely made an impact on me! It was the push I needed to finish the process for me to become one! Let's Doula This Baby offers birth and postpartum doula, & childbirth education to expecting mothers.

    I’m very grateful to have Dreonia as my doula. She is amazingly down to earth, gentle, kind and giving. You can tell she has a passion for babies and is pure at heart. My hospital birthing experience went surprisingly well due to her being there for me during the experience and during pregnancy helping me with advice. I came very prepared to the hospital and knew what my options were – I also felt peace of mind that she is willing to advocate for me when needed. Overall she has made everything go smoothly and I would do it all over again. Now I have a beautiful baby girl and I’m very blessed!

I started my doula business after the birth of my son. I was transferred from home to hospital, and it was absolutely not the birth I was expecting, nor desiring, and after being abandoned by my midwife, I felt scared, alone, and did not know my options at all. My son whose birth inspired my business, will be 5 this year. I went on to have a surrogate birth of twins, and discovered the realm of high-risk and multiples birth and my passion just grew and grew. I now train other doulas and commit my life to fertility, prenatal, birth and postpartum education, because education IS power. I support all the way from pre-conception to a year postpartum and offer several different package options.

Care philosophy

It is important to me that a birthing person feels safe in their birth space, wherever that may be. My priority is to keep them informed, confident, and feeling safe, during all times of their birth, whether that be completely unassisted, or an elected cesarean, all mamas deserve CHOICE and SAFETY. Autonomy is my philosophy.

Caring for families has been my passion for many years. In 1984 I became a nurse and first time mom. My career in women and childrens health began that same year and I haven't looked back. I have raised 3 wonderful children and I'm a proud grandmother to 2 adorable boys. Over the years I have had the opportunity to assist in the care of families in the hospital, physicians office and homes. Currently I am employed as a childbirth educator and lactation counselor teaching evidenced based baby care, breastfeeding, prepared childbirth and infant cpr. I would love to have a conversation on ways I can assist you on your journey to parenthood.

Care philosophy

I believe that every birthing family needs and deserves nurturing before during and after the birth of their baby.

    My husband and I attended a breastfeeding class that Marsha taught and we really loved her teaching style and approach with new parents. I left that class feeling confident and ready to breastfeed. After I had my son, maybe 3 weeks in, I was having some latch issues and I called Marsha and she encouraged me over the phone but also came to the house and helped me figure out what was and wasn’t working. We tried different holds and latch techniques until I felt comfortable. We have had her back a few times since then and she has helped me gain self confidence as a new mom. I was so overwhelmed in the first few months and I am not sure what I would have done without her! I would recommend her to anyone I know with babies.

Night Nanny Services: FAQs

A night nanny is a trained professional that specializes in newborn care. They are known as “night nannies” because they arrive at night and offer their nannying services until the morning.

They are generally available for 8-12 hours during the night and provide nanny services during this time.

It should be noted that the price of a night nanny in Tampa, FL will likely increase if the night nanny is contracted to deal with twins or multiple children. Also, a night nanny’s cost may depend on their level of education, the needs of the newborn, or their exact responsibilities for specific clients.

There are some situations in which your insurance company will help you cover the costs of childcare, and this can obviously help those parents that want their baby’s needs met but might not be as financially secure. Unfortunately, a night nanny usually isn’t covered by insurance.

However, there are some cases where a night nanny is covered by insurance. For example, if your child health issues, parents may want to check to see whether their night nanny costs can be covered by their insurance company since their role is more directly related to your child’s health.

There are many situations in which parents might consider a night nanny in Tampa, FL. First, both parents might be working long hours, which means that neither of them have the time to actually bathe/feed/swaddle the child when necessary. Some parents might already rely on friends and family, but realize that they require more help when it comes to their children.

A night nanny is also often most necessary in situations where there are twins or triplets. These parents simply may need extra help to care for these children night after night, and night nannies can help take over some of the workload. For first-time parents, for example, having to care for multiple children for the first time can be overwhelming and stressful. Other parents might also be dealing with mental health issues or postpartum depression.

A night nanny is expected to care for the baby as the parent would if they were awake. Night nannies wash baby bottles, prepare feeds, sterilize pump equipment, and more. Overnight nannies also bathe, feed, diaper, and swaddle the baby, as well. A night nanny can also provide care in situations where the mother might be recovering from a C-section, for example.

In many cases, the process is simple: a parent often hands off their baby to their night nanny so that they can get some much-needed sleep. The night nanny remains at the household until the parent(s) wake up, and then night nannies leave once the parents can take over child care duties.

Every family’s needs are different, but night nannies are expected to burp the baby, bathe the baby, prepare formula, and provide other nanny duties. In summary, overnight nannies in Tampa, FL are expected to keep the baby fed, comfortable, clean, rested, and dry.

However, night nannies are not expected to complete household chores that are unrelated to baby care. It’s also important to note that a night nanny in Tampa, FL will obviously need to get their rest, as well – so bedding must be provided. A night nanny typically sleeps once the baby is already resting and their nanny chores are complete.

A night nanny can often help parents with emotional support or provide extra help for a sick child. An overnight nanny in Tampa, FL can help reduce stress and anxiety for many new parents who might have issues with their work-life balance.

One of the most obvious differentiators in the world of night nannies in Tampa, FL is the fact that a night nanny might have specific experience with children of a specific age. Some night nannies might have certifications such as nursing certifications or sleep certifications. Many night nannies are often involved for the first six weeks of childbirth, and some of them remain with parents for months.

For example, some night nannies might have specialized skills for children aged 1-2, while others may be more experienced with children aged 3-4. Obviously, the responsibilities of these night nannies in Tampa, FL differ depending on the age of the children that they are supervising.

Some night nannies might be CPR-certified or first-aid certified, which can give more peace of mind to parents who might be concerned about potential sleep or breathing issues. Other overnight nannies might specialize in newborns that have colic or reflux issues, as well.

There are some overnight nannies in Tampa, FL that might be open to caring for your child while you are traveling out of town, while other nannies might not be available for that amount of time. There is no certification required to become a night nanny in Tampa, FL. However, some night nannies choose to become newborn care specialists, and undergo NCS training.

There are some families that try to compare the concept of a “night nanny” to an “overnight babysitter.” The main difference here involves the level of commitment that a night nanny has to a newborn, versus a babysitter that may only have to provide minimal care to a newborn or child.

A babysitter is often not responsible for actually creating/fixing meals for newborns, washing their baby bottles, or doing their laundry. While a babysitter might monitor a newborn or make sure that they are safe – a nanny might spend time soothing a newborn, swaddling them, or taking care of their meals and clothes. A nanny has more obligations than a babysitter, and are considered more of an “extension” of the parents.
