Introduction: The Holistic Nanny Specialist course is a unique offering designed to equip caregivers with the knowledge and skills to provide natural, non-medical support to newborns and their families. As awareness of holistic health grows, the importance of integrating natural care practices for newborns becomes increasingly significant. This course incorporates homeopathy, herbal remedies, essential oils, acupressure, and other home remedies, empowering you to offer suggestions for natural health solutions that clients can discuss with their healthcare providers.

Course Content: This course expands upon the Basic NCS/NN course by including comprehensive modules on natural modalities. While you are not a medical consultant, the holistic approach taught in this course will enable you to provide valuable insights that clients may prefer over traditional medications.

Instructor Credentials: Nancy Hamm, with over 19 years of experience in training newborn care specialists, leads this course. Her extensive background and practical knowledge make her an invaluable resource for navigating non-medical newborn care situations. Students from diverse backgrounds have successfully trained under Ms. Hamm.

Enrollment: By enrolling in our Holistic Newborn Care Specialist/Newborn Nanny courses, you join a community of dedicated newborn care professionals. The course includes interactive materials such as demonstration videos, charts, personal experiences, and scientific facts, all presented with a touch of humor to make learning enjoyable and engaging.

Certification: Upon completing the course, submitting your homework, and passing a quiz, you will receive a completion certificate. You can further your credentials by completing certification through the NCSA.

Additional Information: Nancy Hamm brings over 33 years of experience with newborns, providing insights into practical care giving, being your own boss, finding employment, and achieving success as a newborn caregiver. Our courses cater to different age groups, with the Holistic Newborn Care Specialist course focusing on ages 0-12 weeks and the Nanny Course covering ages 4 months to 4 years.
