Empowering families through intuitive, evidence-based newborn care. Transforming insecurities into confidence.

Who we are

The Minimalist Baby helps new parents replace confusion with clarity through simple, intuitive and sustainable newborn routines. Led by Ulisses Nunes—pediatric and neonatal registered nurse, newborn care specialist, maternity nurse and lactation consultant—we bring hospital-level expertise, empirical knowledge and intuitive, family-centered care into your home.


Using the Ulisses Method, we blend evidence-based nursing, holistic newborn care, gentle sleep support, and minimalist parenting practices tailored to your baby. The result: better sleep, smoother feeding, and a home that feels quieter, kinder, and deeply connected. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, we support families from day one through the fourth trimester—guiding your journey into parenthood with expertise, compassion, and confidence. Less noise. More knowing. Enjoy the beginning.

Medical expertise meets conscious, evidence-based newborn care

After years in high-acuity NICU and CVICU units, travel-nurse assignments, and private-home care, we saw how easily new parents become overwhelmed by information and noise. The Minimalist Baby was created to help families navigate the journey of parenthood with clarity, confidence, and calm—offering expert newborn guidance that simplifies care and strengthens intuition.

How we empower families

We guide families toward sustainable sleep and feeding rhythms through evidence-based newborn care—bringing intuition back to the heart of parenthood and turning insecurities into confidence.
