Team Nourish

Vanessa has been a Pediatric Nurse for over 20yrs. Graduated in 2004, and worked at Sick Kids  Hospital for 3yrs. Working at Sick Kids is where she  found my passion for pediatric nursing.

 Vanessa moved out West in 2007 and started her career at the Alberta Children’s Hospital. 

Vanessa is passionate about collaborating with families and supporting new parents to ensure the most positive experiences and outcomes are achieved during the wonderful adventure of parenting.'

Hi! My name is Jordan, and I’m a Registered Nurse with a big heart for little humans. I am a newer nurse that graduated early 2025 with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing through the University of Victoria, where I received my RN license, and then found a love for Pediatric nursing. 

Through my work the past year in pediatrics, I have discovered a deep passion for supporting newborns and the amazing people who care for them. I love walking alongside families during the exciting (and sometimes challenging!) transition after birth, helping them feel confident, supported, and heard.

From breastfeeding initiation to navigating those early newborn adjustments, I provide inclusive, compassionate, and client-centred care tailored to your unique goals. My aim is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel empowered every step of the way. I’m here to support you and your little one—and I can’t wait to meet you!

Danielle became a licensed practical nurse in 2018, gaining work experience at long term care facilities, Rockyview Hospital and the Alberta Children’s Hospital. After spending time in family medicine and pediatrics, she realized her true passion was in obstetrics and maternity and wanting to support women and their families through these special moments. Aside from providing postpartum support, Danielle also works at a high risk OBGYN clinic in Calgary. After becoming a mom of two, she realized how important postpartum support is and wants to bring both her clinical experience and lived understanding to helping individuals and families.

For 8 years, I worked as an LPN at the Alberta Children’s Hospital on a unit dedicated to infant care. That experience gave me extensive knowledge of newborn health, feeding, and development. Over the past 2 years, I’ve been working as a night nanny, where I’ve had the privilege of guiding families through the early days and long nights with newborns — including multiples.

I’m also a proud mom of two boys. Having breastfed and pumped for both of them, I bring both professional expertise and personal experience to feeding support. I believe every family’s feeding journey is unique, and I’m here to support you whether that means breastfeeding, pumping, formula, or a combination.

In addition, I’ve completed Safe Sleep Ambassador training, ensuring the babies I care for are always nurtured in the safest possible environment.

Above all, I love what I do. Supporting parents, easing their worries, and helping them find confidence and rest in the newborn stage is not just my work — it’s my passion.

If you’re looking for compassionate, reliable, and knowledgeable support during this precious time, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you and your family.

She is currently pursuing her goal of becoming a Nurse Practitioner, with aspirations to work in public health supporting pre- and postpartum women and their newborns.
