About Dereka

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have over 10 years of experience working with primary school children and infants. I am CPR and NRP certified. I am also trained in sleep hygiene, lactation and newborn care. I am a Birth and Postpartum Doula, Mom of four, Student Midwife and have expanded my services to Newborn Care Specialist and Night Nanny because I am all about the babies. As a Newborn Care Specialist it only made sense to also offer Night Nanny Services - what better way to continue to get your postpartum care than in the comfort of your own home. Do you have a newborn who thinks 3 a.m. is their prime social time and you need to begin getting ready for the day at 8am? I encourage infant sleep hygiene, begin sleep conditioning and can assist with lactation and infant schedules. Schedule an interview to discuss how I can help you and your newborn transition to the "4th trimester" life. **** Located in DFW not Lubbock

Dereka is a loving and attentive caregiver. She's the "Baby Whisperer"! The way she instinctively knew what my baby's needs were and provided prompt attention and care was such a relief during the sleep deprivation days of having a newborn. Being able to get some much needed rest while knowing my baby was well taken care of Made recovery so much easier this time around.
