About Kim Morgan Smart

Experience shaped by motherhood, professionalism, and calling.

As the proud mother of two incredible boys and the founder of Ambiance Sleep Newborn Care Services, I feel deeply grateful to have discovered my life's true calling: caring for newborns and supporting families during one of the most transformative seasons of their lives.

Early Beginnings

Where the calling began.

My journey began on the beautiful Grenadines island of Mustique in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, where my love for babies first took root. Long before Ambiance Sleep existed, I knew there was something special about caring for children and supporting families in meaningful, lasting ways.

A Personal Journey That Deepened My Purpose

A sacred understanding of the early days.

At twenty-three, doctors told me it might not be possible for me to have children because of a medical condition. Five years later, I miraculously gave birth to my first son.

The delivery was intense and filled with serious complications, but the moment I held him for the first time, I knew with absolute certainty that caring for babies was where my heart truly belonged.

That experience deepened my understanding of how sacred, emotional, and vulnerable the early days of parenthood can be. It also strengthened my desire to support families with compassion, skill, and care that truly makes a difference.

Professional Experience

More than 25 years of newborn and infant care.

01

Hands-on Experience

For more than 25 years, I have dedicated my life to supporting families through the earliest and most delicate stages of parenthood.

02

Ongoing Education

Through extensive hands-on experience and continued professional development, I remain committed to staying current with evidence-based best practices in newborn and infant care.

03

Whole-Family Support

I support parents through feeding, sleep foundations, newborn development, and the emotional adjustment that comes with bringing home a new baby.

Why I Founded Ambiance Sleep

Professional, compassionate support from the start.

My desire to support families in a deeper, more intentional way led to the creation of Ambiance Sleep Newborn Care Services.

Ambiance Sleep was built on the belief that families deserve more than basic help. They deserve knowledgeable, professional, compassionate support that creates calm, builds confidence, and helps establish healthy foundations from the start.

Based in New York City and available for travel, I provide daytime, overnight, and 24-hour newborn care support for families seeking a thoughtful and personalized experience.

Beyond My Work

Motherhood remains one of the greatest gifts of my life.

When I am not supporting families, you can often find me exploring New York City or traveling with my two sons, whom I affectionately call my M + M Chocolates.

Motherhood remains one of the greatest gifts of my life, and it continues to shape the empathy, perspective, and commitment I bring into my work every day.
