Hello Everyone!
My name is Ivanna Cortese, a certified pediatric sleep consultant and parenting coach⎯ Helping families achieve a good night's rest and enjoy every step of the parenting journey.
About
Hey everyone! I’m Ivanna Cortese, a certified sleep consultant, parenting coach, & Newborn Care Specialist. I have been guiding and coaching families for over a decade. After working as a nanny and family assistant for high profile families I decided I wanted to share my knowledge and experience with as many parents as possible.
I took the initiative to create Family Hive to help families overcome challenges without being pulled left and right by the endless vague information out there. I wanted to create a place that felt like a true second home where you will not be judged or laughed at for your parenting choices. A place where you can learn and grow!
Family hive is dedicated to helping you become a parent who is a confident leader. Not all children are the same. They have their own individuality that makes them special and unique. Not every child can be raised the same way with the same techniques used on other kids. As a parent/caretaker you are also unique and come with your own opinions and ideas. Having someone hold your hand and guide you during times where one can feel lost comes handy. It helps avoid many bumps along the way so you CAN enjoy parenting and not lose yourself in the process. Starting with a solid parenting foundation sets you up for success long term and puts your whole family ahead of the game.
While working alongside CEOs, Law Partners, Surgeons, and Presidents of big corporations I understood just how important it is to have a clear idea of where you want to be and what your starting point is. Managing a home with children plus keeping your sanity is not easy. Throughout the years I developed techniques and rhythms that worked for each individual family to avoid running into bigger deeper problems in the future. When you set yourself up for success you are also setting up your children for success. The sleep deprivation, cranky babies, temper tantrums, talk back, hitting, spitting, yelling can be resolved or avoided all together. My passion is helping parents become strong leaders who raise strong, well-rounded, emotionally stable children who will one day be a functioning member of society. If you’re ready to feel rejuvenated, in control, and confident, I am ready to help you with personalized plans to fit your unique needs.
