About Eydie

Baby Nurse & Night Nurse with 25+ Years of Newborn Experience

For more than two decades, Eydie Ann Brathwaite has supported families through the incredible — and often overwhelming — transition of welcoming a new baby home. She brings a calm, confident presence, deep newborn expertise, and a warm sense of humor that instantly puts parents at ease.

Eydie specializes in:

  • Tongue ties, lip ties & oral motor feeding challenges

  • Breastfeeding, pumping & formula-feeding support

  • Sleep shaping & soothing techniques for newborns

  • Twins & multiples

  • Surviving those first few weeks with grace and rest

She has worked with families throughout the tri-state area — New York, New Jersey, Connecticut — and regularly travels for short-term newborn care in nearby regions including Long Island and Pennsylvania.

Flexible Support That Fits Your Family

Every baby — and every home — is different. Eydie adapts easily to:

  • Cozy Manhattan apartments

  • Suburban homes with a dedicated nursery

  • Overnight shifts sleeping on the couch so you can take the bedroom

  • Longer-term travel assignments with room provided

Her goal is always the same: make sure parents wake up rested, confident, and supported.

Experience From Newborn Through School Age

While her focus is overnight newborn care, Eydie has also nannied children from their first days through preschool and beyond. She understands child development at every stage, and brings that knowledge into her newborn care — helping families establish healthy routines from the start.
