A Night Nanny, now known as a Newborn Care Specialist,

A night nanny, now known as a newborn care specialist, is a professional caregiver who specializes in providing overnight care for newborns and their parents. Their primary role is to help new parents get the rest they need by taking care of the baby during the night.

They  typically work with families for the first few weeks or months after the baby is born, usually up to 4 months although some families may choose to hire them for longer periods of time. They are trained and experienced in caring for newborns,  and can provide a range of services to help parents adjust to life with a new baby.

 

Some of the services that a night nanny or newborn care specialist, may provide include:

 

1. Feeding: Night nannies can help with feeding the baby, whether it's through breastfeeding or bottle-feeding. They can also help with burping and soothing the baby back to sleep.

 

2. Nappy Changing : Night nannies can change the baby's nappy  as needed throughout the night, helping to keep the baby clean and comfortable.

 

3. Sleep training: Night nannies can help parents establish a sleep routine for their baby, which can help the baby sleep through the night more quickly.

 

4. Light housekeeping: Night nannies may also help with light housekeeping tasks, such as washing bottles or doing the  laundry of the newborn.

 

5. Emotional support: Night nannies can provide emotional support to new parents, helping them adjust to the challenges of parenthood and providing guidance and advice as needed.

 

Overall, the role of a night nanny  also known as a newborn care specialist, is to provide support and care to new parents during the challenging early weeks and months of their baby's life. By taking care of the baby during the night, they can help parents get the rest they need to be able to care for their baby during the day.
