We had
the opportunity to chat with Julie McCaffrey, the owner of BabyNav Baby Planners.
She has some great ideas about how everyone could benefit from a little extra
help with preparing for their new arrival.

Q and A:
Tell visitors a little about you. Why they should contact
you?
I founded BabyNav after being a full time working mom in a
demanding environment through both my pregnancies (including one set of twins)
and experiencing the overwhelming load that can bring. My previous career had
been based on research, organization and project management and when I applied
those qualities to my pregnancies I felt much more at ease and prepared. Being
able to take those qualities and apply them to baby planning and to helping new
parents is a dream come true and fuels me to learn more and provide better
service to each family that I have the pleasure of working with. At BabyNav we
have a true love and passion for everything maternity and baby related and have
becomes experts in the field of baby gear. We look forward to sharing our
knowledge, experience and unbiased expertise with expecting and new parents
while they navigate their journey.
Why would I want a Baby Planner when I have friends and family
and strangers giving advice?
Friends and family are a great start
for support but the world of baby is a fast changing one. Also, those loved
ones don’t have the same home that you do, don’t have the same budget, may have
had other children or pets, could have been either a working or stay at home
mom, lived a more or less active lifestyle than you live or have a different
design aesthetic. I pride myself in getting to know a family and understanding
their lifestyle and the goals they have for their family. Before any of my
services begin I offer a free 30 minute consultation so I get the chance to
meet and get-to know each family. Once that takes place, every service that I
provide to them is 100% customized and personalized. There are no 2 baby
registries or tummy timelines that look the same because each one is created
with that family in mind.
What is your most-requested service?
My most
requested service is for baby gear and registry consulting. It can be truly
overwhelming for parents to walk into a baby store and stop in any section to
see there are sometimes hundreds of options to choose from in one category. At
BabyNav, we have the most up to date information on available baby products,
safety ratings and recalls, trends and new products to help expecting parents
make those decisions. After getting to know parents, we can provide
recommendations on baby products and baby gear that will work best for their
family and lifestyle.
How much does a baby planner cost? Can I afford one when
babies are already so expensive?
Yes! Using a baby planner can save you not only time and
headaches but can actually save you money by steering you clear of gear that
you might have purchased that your family simply doesn’t need.
There's so much information out there!
Where do I start?
Many expecting parents today struggle to keep up with all
of the magazines, blogs, big box stores, boutique stores, baby expos, Facebook
posts, Tweets and Pinterest pins that are all telling them what is best for their baby. Each service provided by a
baby planner is designed to reduce stress, reduce the amount of time parents
need to spend researching and making decisions and allowing both expecting moms
and dads to enjoy the journey of pregnancy and being a parent to a beautiful
new baby.
How do I know if a baby planner is right for me?
If you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed, a baby
planner can be the perfect resource to get your family on track to feeling more
confident. Whether it is baby gear consulting, personal shopping, nursery
organization, multiples preparation or childcare consulting my goal is to
always take the stress out of the pregnancy. I want to ensure that expecting
moms can focus on a healthy pregnancy and enjoying this amazing time in their
life! Many expecting parents today
simply feel overwhelmed and after working with them they are left feeling
comforted and ready to focus on their birth experience and welcoming their baby
into their world.
How do I choose a baby planner?
Look for someone who is confident, experienced, trusting,
organized and you can easily communicate with! Using resources like www.findababyplanner.com or www.internationalbabyplanners.com can get you started with who is available in your area.
You can also start out by calling BabyNav to see if our Skype and email
services will fit your needs.
