OVERNIGHT NEWBORN CARE


Long gone are the nights of sleep deprivation! Sleep is essential for the well-being of both parents and infants, yet it often becomes elusive with a newborn at home. Overnight newborn care allows you to get the rest you deserve so that you can focus on enjoying your new bundle(s) of joy.

OVERNIGHT CARE INCLUDES:

  • Complete care of your baby throughout the night - all feedings, diaper changes, soothing, and settling

  • If nursing, bringing baby to you for night feeds and helping you get comfortable for nursing sessions

  • Establishing healthy sleep patterns to get baby (and you!) sleeping better

  • Maintaining a safe sleep space at all times

  • Initiating a daytime schedule and nighttime routine

  • Washing/sterilizing bottles and pump parts

  • Bagging/storing breast milk and preparing formula

  • Light nursery organization and restocking essentials

  • Baby laundry if needed

Care is always responsive, developmentally appropriate and aligned with your parenting preferences. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—everything is tailored to your baby and your preferences.

  • Choose from:

    3-7 nights per week

    9-hour, 10-hour or 12-hour shifts between the hours of 7pm-7am.

    4 - 24+ weeks of support

    Shift options:

    9-hour shifts: 9pm - 6am or 10pm - 7am

    10-hour shifts: 8pm - 6am or 9pm - 7am

    12-hour shift: 7pm - 7am

    If you don't see a shift option that works for you, please contact me to see if I can accommodate your request. Please be advised that overnight care requires a 9-hour minimum shift (9pm - 6am or 10pm - 7am). Overnight shifts do not start after 10pm and do not end earlier than 6am.

    1. Submit an inquiry form
      Start by filling out the inquiry form. Once I receive your submission, I’ll be in touch to schedule a phone call or in-person meeting to learn more.

    2. Confirm dates and hours
      Following our consultation, we’ll finalize the mutually agreed-upon dates and hours for care. A formal contract will then be sent.

    3. Sign contract & submit retainer
      To secure your dates, a non-refundable retainer is required at the time of signing. Retainer amounts vary based on the length of the contract and are applied to the final weeks of service.

    4. Booking confirmed
      Once the retainer is received, your booking will be confirmed and your dates officially added to the schedule.
