You’re a natural-born nurturer. Just ask the Chia Pet that flourished in your college dorm room.

But tending to newborns is a bigger challenge. Let parenting and sleep consultant Janeen Hayward of Swellbeing help. The licensed clinical counselor just expanded her business from New York to Chicago, helping local families live happily with baby.

Through home visits, phone calls, and e-mail, Hayward tackles issues like feeding, bonding, potty training, and separation anxiety. Her specialty? Finding sleep solutions that fit your parenting philosophy (she’s spoken about it at Giggle, East Bank Club, and Bloom Yoga Studio).

That’s all swell and good.
