Sonia Subudhi Warwick helps guide CPCQC’s infant-focused work. As the Infant Initiative Manager and Quality Improvement Lead, she leads NEST (Newborn Evidence-based Sleep Teaching), a statewide hospital-based program launching in 2026 that aims to make safe sleep education and support a routine part of newborn care while recognizing the diverse environments and experiences of Colorado families.

Drawing on her background in clinical care and public health, Sonia works to strengthen the systems that shape newborn care. She’s guided by her belief that every child deserves the chance for a healthy life from the very start. Before joining CPCQC, Sonia most recently led a perinatal nutrition initiative with the Philadelphia Department of Public Health focused on improving maternal mental health and birth outcomes by expanding access to healthy foods through community partnerships. She has also cared for infants and children as a pediatrician in both emergency and primary care settings and contributed to research examining how culture and technology can influence infant care decisions in the postpartum period.

Sonia earned her undergraduate degree in Community Health from Brown University and her medical degree from Eastern Virginia Medical School. She completed her pediatric residency at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland through the UCSF PLUS program focused on health equity and community engagement, followed by a Master of Public Health from UC Berkeley.

Outside of work, Sonia enjoys cooking, yoga, and pottery.
