Steady newborn support. Clear communication. More time for parents to rest and recover.
The first weeks with a newborn can feel nonstop. Feeding, diaper changes, soothing, recovery, and broken sleep often continue through every part of the day and night.
Rock A Bye Baby LLC provides non-medical, in-home 24/7 newborn care in Washington, DC. Care can be arranged across daytime and overnight shifts, based on your baby’s needs, family routine, requested schedule, and caregiver availability.
24/7 newborn care provides organized support across daytime and overnight hours. It may help families manage frequent feeding, diapering, soothing, sleep periods, and newborn-related household tasks.
Coverage is planned around agreed shifts. One caregiver is not expected to work continuously for 24 hours. Depending on the schedule, care may involve coordinated caregivers and clear handoffs between shifts.
| Feeding Support Based on Your Plan | The caregiver follows your approved feeding routine throughout daytime and overnight shifts. Support may include bringing the baby to a breastfeeding parent, offering prepared bottles, burping, and recording feeding details. Feeding changes and medical decisions remain with parents and healthcare providers. |
| Diapering, Soothing, and Settling | Care may include diaper changes, wet diaper tracking, rocking, swaddling when appropriate, and soothing after each wake-up. The caregiver follows your routine and returns the baby to the approved sleep space. |
| Bottle and Pump-Part Care | When included in the plan, the caregiver may wash bottles, clean pump parts, restock feeding supplies, complete light baby laundry, and organize newborn essentials. These tasks keep the care area prepared between shifts. |
| Support for Twins or Multiples | Structured care may help manage overlapping feeds, diaper changes, soothing needs, and sleep periods for more than one baby. Separate care notes can be maintained for each newborn. |
| Clear Shift Records and Handoffs | Care notes may include feeding times, bottle amounts, diaper changes, sleep periods, and relevant non-medical observations. Clear handoffs help parents and incoming caregivers understand how each shift progressed. |
Care begins with a review of the schedule, feeding instructions, sleep arrangements, caregiver duties, and communication preferences.
During each shift, the caregiver follows the agreed care plan and records important details about feeds, diapers, sleep, soothing, and supplies.
Clear handoffs keep parents and incoming caregivers informed throughout the day and night.
Confirm schedules, routines, duties, access, and family instructions.
Support feeding, diapering, soothing, settling, and care tracking.
Share clear updates about the baby’s care, sleep, and supplies.

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!Posted on Google Eliza IrwinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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!Posted on Google Lauren Culbertson GriecoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our night nurse was lovely, experienced, and wonderful with our daughter. She helped us find our footing during those exhausting early weeks and we're so grateful for the support. Highly recommend this agency to any new parents!Posted on Google Sofia RosenbergTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.Posted on Google Meg MinklerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have been so happy to use the rock a bye baby newborn care team for all 3 of our children! Nicky's team is truly the best and i cannot Recommend them enough! They are so flexible and accommodating to your families needs and schedule as well. It was truly a wonderful feeling to have them help with each child. Love rock a bye baby!Posted on Google Annie WolfTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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!Posted on Google Natallie ZaritskyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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!
