Nurture & Nourish

05/01/2026

Nurture & Nourish is undergoing some big changes this month!

As a military spouse-owned business, one of the hardest parts of this journey is moving to a new place and leaving behind the clients, families, and connections that have meant so much along the way.

This May, my family is saying “Goodbye, Colorado!” and beginning our next chapter in Texas. While it is bittersweet to leave the Colorado Springs community that has supported Nurture & Nourish so wholeheartedly, I am so grateful for every family who trusted me to be part of their breastfeeding and postpartum journey.

The good news—Nurture & Nourish is not going anywhere! Danielle will continue serving Colorado Springs families with the same compassionate, evidence-based lactation support you know and trust. I know she will continue to care for our clients with the same heart and dedication.

As we say “Howdy, Texas!” I’m excited for the opportunity to expand Nurture & Nourish and support even more families while still staying connected to the amazing community we’ve built here in Colorado.

Thank you for allowing me to be part of such special seasons in your lives. Supporting mothers and babies has always been more than a job to me—it’s truly an honor.

Colorado, thank you. Texas, we’re ready ❤️

The Childbirth and Breastfeeding Support Demonstration for Tricare beneficiaries has been extended an additional 5 years!

The Demonstration was originally set to end at the end of this year. Extending it is GREAT, but becoming a permanent benefit would be even better.

They are currently taking public comment for this to become a standard benefit. If you've been able to take advantage of either Birth Doula or Lactation services through the CBSD, let them know! If you missed out on this opportunity because it didnt include MTFs, or you would have benefited from more than 6 hours of Lactation support, let them know!

It's okay to not want visitors straight away ♥️

Visitors often mean well, but they can quickly become overwhelming in the early days. As you and your baby recover and learn to feed together, extra company can make it harder to notice cues and find your rhythm.
It’s okay to wait on visitors until you feel more settled, and it’s okay to set boundaries around who visits, when, and for how long.

Did you set rules for visitors in those early days? If so, what did you find most helpful in balancing the desire of others to help and your need for space?

PSA! There are so SO many unsafe products out there

Just because it’s on the shelf doesn’t mean it’s suitable for sleep. 🤔

Baby sleep products aren’t always designed with safer sleep in mind, even if they’re marketed that way.

When it comes to your baby’s sleep space, keep it simple to keep it safe. You don’t need to buy lots of products or spend money on expensive items.

The safest place for a baby to sleep is on their back in their own clear, flat, firm sleep space.

There are just a few items that we recommend – the baby necessities:

- Cot or Moses basket
- Portable sleep space such as a travel cot, carry cot or Moses basket
- Firm, flat, waterproof mattress
- Sleeping bag or sheets and a lightweight blanket
- Room thermometer
- Car seat – this is not intended for sleeping when not travelling, but is essential for safer travel.

Ni**le Shields are meant to be a temporary tool while problems are actively being solved, it is NOT a forever solution.
