Why do I need a Night Nanny?
There are many reasons. First and foremost, to be sure that the well being of Mom and Dad are cared for. Once this happens, the infant(s) can be made a priority with positive and quality parenting. Second, to decrease sleep deprivation. Third, the absence of extended family has put more demands on parents with less support. We offer parents the support and peace of mind they need.
Can I afford a Night Nanny?

What's the difference between a Night Nanny, Baby Nurse or Maternity Nurse?
The main difference is that a Night Nanny will work a specific overnight shift, and then go home in the morning. A Baby Nurse or Maternity Nurse will typically provide temporary live-in care. Both positions offer care directly following the birth. Both positions also offer extensive knowledge with basic infant care, and postpartum care.
What are the responsibilities of the Night Nanny?
The Night Nanny will provide all basic infant care including, but not limited to, bottle-feeding, burping, changing diapers, cleaning a circumcision and/or umbilical cord, and change the diaper pal. Upon agreement, a Night Nanny will also wipe down kitchen counters, and load/unload a dishwasher.
Does the Night Nanny sleep?
Yes. A Night Nanny is there to provide an environment conducive to what the home would be like without her there. It is necessary that she does not stimulate the infant(s) with music, television or light.
