Today we’d like to introduce you to Julia Mitchell.
Julia, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
I started my career almost ten years ago ob accident. I’ve always loved kids, teaching & being a role model to them. My grandmother was a well-known artist, and on weekends I would work with her teaching art classes to children all around Los Angeles. She would always tell everyone my resume was just as long as hers (from the age of 2!). I originally went to college to become a fashion designer (later I changed my major to Child Development). My first year in college a friend of mine recommended me to a friend of hers who just had a baby, and was looking for a nanny. I fell in love, and from there my professional career started. Within the first six years, I had worked with families with children ranging from newborn-teen. My work has allowed me to travel the world, but five years ago I realized I really loved working with newborns, and educating parents. From there my focus grew from long term travel nanny to exclusively providing newborn care services.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Not at all! This journey has had many bumps in the road. I’ve sacrificed a lot to be where I am today and I feel like I am just breaking the surface honestly, but I am grateful I have gone through those things. It’s made me stronger, and my business has grown from it.
Please tell us about Mitchell Newborn Care.
I specialize in Newborn Care & Parent Education based in both Texas and California. I work with many families from first-time to seasoned parents during their postpartum phase. Each family has different needs, but I am usually contracted for three to six months providing overnight care. I have families who contract me to travel during this time, and sometimes I relocate for my contracted time. I help families create a day and night time schedules. In addition to those core services I offer Sleep Coaching for babies four months to a year old and Nanny Matchmaking services connecting families with highly qualified nannies.
