The Baby Nurse

SCOUTED 🪩 🩷

Thrilled to be included in Volume 10, our third year being featured in and possibly our favorite color yet! These sweet boys have come a long way since their early debut last year and helping their parents adjust to life at home with 2 premature newborns was such an honor.

The best job. The best nurses. The best clients.

Thank you Columbus for your continued support!

We’ve been quiet on here, but behind the scenes have been anything but with our busiest season yet!

2025 has been all about the BOYS. In fact, we have yet to welcome a girl this year! Who will break the streak?! Until then we’ll continue snuggling these little fellas and cheering on their awesome parents.

The Scout is out!🩵❤️

We are so excited to be back this year for Volume 9 alongside so many incredible people. None of this would be possible without the BEST nurses in town and the most supportive clients. Special thanks to and .baumgardner22 for letting us use the most stunning nursery and even more beautiful baby girl for this years shoot. Little did they know when they found our company through last year that they would be featured this year.

Looking forward to another (very busy) year of snuggling babies and supporting new parents! ✨

Repeat clients are the ultimate compliment. These families turn into friends and watching these babies grow is such a blessing.

We cared for big sister last year and little brother just joined the fun! 🥰

✨CARISSA✨

I am Columbus born and raised and love the Buckeyes, Columbus Crew and CBJ. I obtained my nursing degree at Kent State University and moved back to Columbus after college.
I have been a Registered Nurse for 12 years now, 9 of which have been on the Mother Infant Unit. My passion has always been in Obstetrics and working with moms and babies. I feel very blessed to be working where I have always felt most passionate. Educating parents and being part of such a life changing experience is super rewarding. I am also grateful I get to continue to do this for families after discharge from the hospital!
In my free time, I am spending time with my husband, our husky, and our daughters who are 2 and 3. We love exploring new parks and being outside. I also love listening to music, knitting, checking out coffee shops, and anything sourdough baking!
The Baby Nurse Ohio has been such a blessing and has provided so much balance and flexibility when it comes to career and family. Because of this, I want to give back to our families that same sense of balance and ease in this new and exciting chapter!

Carissa hit the ground running this summer and has become such a wonderful asset to our team!

Is your family growing in the new year? Now is the time to plan your postpartum support! We are now booking for February 2025. Our books fill up a few months in advance and there is nothing worse than having to turn new parents away. I promise you won’t regret it when the time comes!

✨If you have used our services in the past, what is one thing you would tell those contemplating the need for postpartum support?

Meet Kara T!

One of two amazing Kara’s on our team, here is what she has to say about working for The Baby Nurse!

Here’s some facts

◦My own postpartum experience inspired me to join The Baby Nurse - I remember the sleep deprivation and feeding struggles those first few weeks! It is so rewarding giving families the support they need.

◦I have been a registered nurse for 8 years - I am also a Labor and Delivery RN.

◦I have lived in Columbus for the past several years with my husband, but I am originally from Pennsylvania.

◦I am a mom to my 1 year old son and dog mom to two golden retrievers Macie & Miles 🐶🐶

◦I love checking out local coffee shops and all things Bravo TV!

◦It is so fulfilling giving new parents a night of sleep while caring for their baby as I would my own ❤️

Our team is growing!

If you are passionate about postpartum support and enjoy flexible self scheduling (and the best snuggles) we would love to hear from you. 🤩

Say hello to GABBY!

⭐️I graduated from Miami University with my degree in Nursing.

⭐️After college, I worked & lived in Cincinnati for a while but recently moved back to Columbus-where I am originally from.

⭐️I have 2 younger siblings. Our newest family member is my one year old German Shorthair Pointer, Waylon!

⭐️I started my nursing career in Postpartum and I currently work full time as a Labor and Delivery nurse in addition to The Baby Nurse.

⭐️I love to travel, work out, and spend time with family and friends.

⭐️My favorite part about being a baby nurse is having the opportunity to be a part of each family’s support system. I love being able to be present and customize my support and care for each family’s individual needs. Nothing is more rewarding than showing them how strong they are and being able to make difference in each and everyone one of their lives. Caring for moms and babies is one of my biggest passions. 💗

Gabby’s optimism and positive attitude have been a huge asset to our team!

Next up…TRACEY

⭐️ I’m a Nana to 6 grand-kiddos 3 years and under (3 girls, 2 boys and 1- due any day!)

⭐️ My 1st career was stay-at-home Mom. I then returned to school as a non-traditional student to pursue my passion of a career in Nursing.

⭐️ I have been a nurse for 10 years now, starting in postpartum and then spending the past 8 years in the NICU.

⭐️ When I’m not loving on little ones in central Ohio, you can find me traveling to a NICU in Northern California every 6-8 weeks where I kept a position I loved after a travel RN assignment.

⭐️ I love all things family! Spending time with my 3 grown/married children and 6 (and multiplying) grand-kids! I also have an amazing Labradoodle dog named Oliver.

⭐️ I enjoy traveling especially by the beach, occasionally pier fishing or a nice relaxing day at the lake.

⭐️ My passion for family, and its importance is what I love about what I do. Coming along side families and assisting them with questions, encouragement and reinforcing confidence and safety as they welcome their little one and discover their new “normal” is a privilege I value and enjoy being a part of!

We are so lucky to have Nana Tracey and her magical snuggles on our team!
