Our baby had an apnea issue during the first breastfeeding after delivery. Alexis was helping E with breastfeeding and saw the baby turn blue. Alexis was calm in taking the baby and bringing her back to normal color. Alexis stayed with E for the next three feedings to help E with her nerves from the event.

She always had a smile and at 3 am that's hard to have sometimes. She would see me and jump up already willing to take my baby to the nursery so I could sleep for a little bit. She is a DAISY Nurse!

Alexis went above and beyond with a great attitude the whole time she was with me. When I was pushing to have my baby I was having trouble getting her out. It was almost to the point of using a vacuum or having a C-section. Alexis suggested tug-of-war and pulled with me. Because of this technique, I was able to give birth to my baby without added intervention.
