Baby O and I

Sleep Consultant

Hi! I’m Jensine Casey, sleep consultant, lover of all things beach related, and mom to two handsome boys and a baby girl! I work with families of children 4 and under who are exhausted and struggling with getting their little ones to sleep for naps or at night. Through sleep consulting, your entire family's life will change. Not to sound dramatic but it’s true. But with so many methods of child rearing and sleep training it is difficult to know what works best for your particular family.

 

Becoming a sleep consultant became a dream and passion of mine after working with one myself to get my older son sleeping as I saw how life changing it was to sleep through the night and have daily naps I could rely on. I’m devoted to working with families around the world to get their lives back, just as I got mine back! Every day I work with families just like yours to provide a program and support through getting their child to be an amazing sleeper. I am proof that the support works and is trans-formative.

 

Safe sleep and sweet dreams!

Denaro Chiropractic

Chiropractor

After her personal experience with TMJ and headache relief through Chiropractic care, Dr. Denaro was inspired to pursue chiropractic as a career. She has devoted her attention to caring for pregnant women and children. “My favorite part of being a family chiropractor is watching the growth of each family and being able to provide them with nurturing chiropractic care from pre-conception to postpartum and everything in between.” Dr. Denaro’s specialization for pediatrics ranges from newborns to teenagers.  

​

Pregnancy Chiropractic care is used for comfort measures for women through all stages of pregnancy but also is essential for the growth and development of the baby. Dr. Denaro is certified in the Pregnancy Webster Technique. Utilizing this assessment and adjustment protocol, stress is taken off of the mother’s spine, muscles, and ligaments, allowing optimal room for the baby to develop, grow, and turn. Many women choose Webster Certified Chiropractors to prevent Breech pregnancies and C-sections.

​

Many parents routinely have their newborn checked by a Chiropractor. Learning to hold up their head, sit without assistance, crawling and walking are all activities that may affect a baby's spinal alignment. These important developmental stages are when a parent will have their child assessed by a Chiropractor.


Dr. Denaro uses different styles of adjusting babies and children to ensure that the adjustments are gentle, safe, and effective.

​

Denaro Chiropractic provides chiropractic for the entire family including pets.  Dr. Denaro reserves time to adjust dogs, cats, horses and farm animals as well.

Urban Suburban Kids

​Samantha Jason Lehman

samantha jason lehman

Samantha is a working mom of two littles (ages 4 and almost 3) and is the founder/creator of Urban Suburban Kids.  After becoming a mom she struggled to find answers to what seemed like basic questions regarding activities and resources that were specific to children in the area. Precious time that no parent has was spent googling “where can i find a stroller friendly trail” or “who offers dance classes for 3 year old” or “what playgrounds are fully fenced in” and “what animals are on this farm.”  Keeping track of the google searches, the facebook comments, and the friend recommendations became overwhelming and out of the chaos UrbanSuburbanKids was born. 

 

Samantha created a website and an IG account of the same name, with the goal of helping other families find the resources they needed (locally). The resource is free. The content is not sponsored. You won’t be targeted by ads. The site is constantly evolving and when she can find the time new content is added. 


Samantha also shares activities and events via the stories on the IG account for UrbanSuburbanKids. She posts family friendly weekend happenings,, playgrounds worth driving to, custom birthday cakes, and much more. Becoming a parent is hard enough, the goal with UrbanSuburbanKids was to provide a platform where parents and caregivers can find a clear, consolidated reference list that they can continue to refer back to as needed. Samantha is a full-time Realtor in the Boston and North Suburbs, she lives in Wakefield with her husband, two kids and two dogs.

Feast and Fettle 

Meals you love, without the cooking

Feast & Fettle is a fully-prepared local meal service that delivers across the Northeast. Perfect for new parents, busy families, or anyone looking for an easy solution to a nourishing dinnertime, F&F offers flexible plans and weekly-curated menus for every kind of eater.

You’ll find the meals to have a signature homey touch, thanks in large part to the fact that the service was founded not by tech entrepreneurs but a private chef. Working for local families, Maggie Mulvena Pearson noticed the difference her cooking made in the lives of her clients—especially those with kids—and how taking dinner-prep off their to-do lists gave them time to slow down and connect over a meal.

So with the help of her best friend Nikki Nix, Maggie set out to help more families simplify their mealtimes. While today F&F serves thousands, back in 2016 it was a two-woman operation delivering to just eight households. But longtime Members know that the throughline has always been satisfying meals made from real-food ingredients…and a whole lot of time earned back as a result. Now as mothers themselves, juggling evening routines with their own kids, Maggie and Nikki find that the F&F mission resonates on an even deeper level. It was never just about food; it was always about reclaiming precious family moments from the clutches of daily chaos.

Little Learners Classes for Littles 

Katelynn Sudak LMT, CEIM, ICI Baby Signs Instructor, EEC Teacher

While Katelynn was going to school to receive her Bachelor’s Degree in business management, she worked in a daycare setting with infants and toddlers and received her EEC Certified teacher certificate. She enjoyed working with infants and young toddlers as they are constantly changing and always full of curiosity. She received a license in massage therapy and realized she missed working with young children so she went on to receive her infant massage instructor certification. 

​

In 2018 Katelynn had her first child who showed some delays in speech and motor development. Through working with early intervention and speech therapists she learned how sign language can be such a valuable tool to help children express their needs and ease frustration for both parent and child. She had always wanted to become an instructor and completed her training in 2024.

​

She started Little Learners in 2024 after working at Stork Ready for many years teaching classes to families. She wanted to expand upon the few classes offered to be able to both offer learning experiences for both parents and children using all of her skillets learned over the years. Her current class offerings include infant massage, sign language, baby sensory classes and toddler sensory classes.
