This episode features Brittany Drew, the 2025 INA Nanny of the Year, whose career reflects what it looks like to build a life in this work with intention, consistency, and integrity.

Brittany is a CPR-certified Newborn Care Specialist, holistic sleep consultant, agency owner, and the founder of the United Nanny Society. With more than twelve years in the field, her journey is not defined by chasing recognition, but by showing up fully for families, children, and the profession itself.

In this conversation, Allison and Brittany explore what families never see but always feel, the internal confidence that shapes great caregivers, the quiet moments that turn a job into a calling, and what recognition really represents when it comes from depth rather than performance.

This episode is especially for nannies who:
• Have questioned whether they are “enough”
• Care deeply and stay longer than required
• Want growth without losing their identity
• Believe this profession deserves dignity and respect

This is not a conversation about awards.
It is a conversation about trust, longevity, and leadership built quietly over time.

This episode of the Pink Table Podcast is a conversation for nannies who have ever wondered if this work could truly become a respected, long-term profession.

Hosted by Allison Goren, Founder and CEO of Pink Nannies, this episode features Brittany Drew, the 2025 INA Nanny of the Year, whose career reflects what it looks like to build a life in this work with intention, consistency, and integrity.

In this episode, Allison Goren, Founder and CEO of Pink Nannies, sits down with Tonya Sakowicz, a foundational leader in the newborn care profession whose work helped shape the industry long before it had structure, credentials, or formal recognition.

Allison has known Tonya for over eighteen years, dating back to the earliest days of professional newborn care. This conversation traces the evolution from hands-on caregiving to education, leadership, and the creation of lasting standards that protect families, mothers, and caregivers alike.

Tonya is the founder of Newborn Care Solutions, the creator of the only CACHE-accredited newborn care training program in the United States, and a longtime leader within the International Nanny Association. Her work has influenced how families hire, how agencies place, and how newborn care specialists understand the responsibility of the role they step into.

Together, they discuss calling versus passion, what mothers carry silently in the early weeks, why education in newborn care is about stewardship rather than hierarchy, and how thoughtful caregiving changes the experience of motherhood itself.

This episode is for newborn care specialists, nannies, and families who want to understand what truly exceptional newborn support looks like and why leadership in this field begins long before titles or recognition.
