When Nighttime Care Starts Affecting the Next Day

Broken sleep can make work, appointments, recovery, and caring for older children harder to manage.
The pressure often grows when one parent handles most night care, or twins have overlapping feeds and settling needs. Overnight newborn care helps share routine nighttime tasks so the next day feels more manageable.

What Overnight Newborn Care Can Include

Night Feeding Support

Care follows your feeding plan and parent instructions. Support may include bringing the baby for breastfeeding, offering prepared bottles, burping, and recording feeds.

Diapering, Soothing, and Settling

Overnight care may include diaper changes, wet diaper tracking, rocking, soothing, and helping the baby settle after wake-ups.

Bottle and Pump-Part Care

When included, the caregiver may wash bottles, clean pump parts, organize feeding supplies, and restock newborn essentials.

Clear Overnight Notes

Parents may receive notes on feeding times, bottle amounts, diaper changes, sleep periods, and relevant non-medical observations.

Catherine had been an incredible night nurse for our family. She is caring, compassionate, and easy to schedule on short notice. We very much appreciated her help in caring for our newborn during the early weeks. I would highly recommend using her for all your childcare needs! Thank you!

We had the most fantastic experience with Kiesha providing overnight care for our newborn. Kiesha is professional, nurturing, kind, and we felt she really took the time to get to know our sweet baby. We also loved working with Nicky during our search for a good match for our family. Nicky and Kiesha have made a difference in our lives!

I loved my experience with them! As a first time mom who had a c-section, having Aggie over for the first week allowed me to rest and recover while knowing my baby was cared for. Aggie is so lovely, warm and knowledgeable and I am so grateful for her! Would highly recommend.

I worked with rock-a-bye-baby for night nannying when both of my children were born and highly recommend Nicky, Dahlia and their team. From the first communication with Nicky, I felt comfortable and supported. She check-in on us in the lead up to the birth and was very flexible with our evolving schedule and needs before and after our babies arrived. We most recently had the pleasure of working with Dahlia, who cared for our daughter from the time she was a few days old until she was a few months old. Dahlia has decades of experience caring for newborns and she not only helped us get much needed sleep in the early days but also worked to instill great sleep habits in our daughter. Dahlia's style centered around what worked best for our baby as opposed to a one-sized-fits-all approach and always communicated the different technics she used to ensure it worked for us as well. The gentle conditioning set our family up for success, with our daughter sleeping through the night when she was around 2 months old and providing my husband and I with the tools to work through any future sleep challenges. I am incredibly thankful to rock-a-bye-baby for helping us and our babies sleep!

A truly wonderful experience with Rock A Bye Baby!! Incredibly knowledgeable, kind and experienced. At a time when you need the most support, the team was there. Excellent communication prior, during and after. We used Nicky for our 2nd newborn and months later when we needed additional overnight support. This truly helped with my physical and mental recovery. Highly recommend!
