“As new parents, we were looking for trustworthy, kind, and compassionate childcare. We trust Sej with our little one and highly recommend them. As someone with experience in early childhood education, and especially someone who has already raised two kind “big kid” boys, we are glad to be able to call on Sej!” ~R, client 2021-2026

“Sej is like the punk Mary Poppins!” -L, past client
I believe parents do the best they can with the support and information they have available. I’m here to help you with both.
"I later realized what you were trying to tell me about the importance of physical contact with babies (and that there's no such thing as spoiling a baby)... I even quote you. You've been a lifesaver." -R, 2023 client
"There is no way to be the perfect mother, but a million ways to be a good one." - Jill Churchill
Sej Violet Jorgensen, she/they, Early Childhood Specialist
I completed my Early Childhood teacher training in 2001, and Birth & Postpartum Doula training in 2011 and 2026. I have a Waldorf background and a theater degree, as well as two older teens and a small dog. I enjoy fiber arts, trees and plants, and playing violin in an orchestra.
My Postpartum service focuses on caring for new parent and child, and I can also provide light housekeeping, cooking and basic baking, pet care, help with other children, virtual support, listening, and brainstorming.
My Nanny/childcare service often includes bottle prep and cleaning, child meal prep, baby/child dishes and laundry in addition to songs, stories, games, walks and nature appreciation within a gentle schedule.
In addition to offering physical and emotional support, I also help parents explore and solidify their own caretaking style. I'm available to work days and overnights, and am up to date on my infant, child and adult CPR training as well as COVID, flu & Tdap vaccines.
I'm excited to hear from you and learn about your dreams for your family.
