What is a night nanny?
Night nannies are specialized caregivers that take care of your newborn in your home overnight while you get some sleep. They are usually responsible for feeding your baby, changing their diaper and getting them to fall back to sleep. Many night nurses can also help to sleep train newborns until they learn to self-sooth back to sleep. Hiring a night nanny can be an amazing help for exhausted new parents suffering from sleep deprivation.
How can I find a night nanny for my newborn?
Care.com has a wide number of night nannies available for you to contact. You can narrow down these results to show night nannies in your area and compare each person by their hourly rate, their availability and the experience they have with newborns. You can also read reviews from other parents who have previously hired a night nanny to care for their newborn and see if they would be a good candidate to bring in for an interview.
Does a night nanny sleep on the job?
Some night nannies sleep while the children they are looking after are asleep and some will stay awake during those hours and may be happy to tackle additional tasks during that time. You can compare night nanny profiles to see what responsibilities they’re willing to take on.
