Experienced nannies are our speciality- day and night. Our night nannies (known as night nurses in some parts of the country) are experienced, carefully vetted, caregivers who specialize in overnight shifts caring for newborns and infants (many are trained Newborn Care Specialists and registered nurses).
Their primary role is to tend to your baby’s every need – feeding, diapering and soothing them back to sleep – at night. They’ll also work along side you to create healthy sleep habits (including sleep training), assist with baby-related household chores, and ensure you’re able to recharge for the daytime demands of parenting.
From the moment you arrive home from the hospital until your baby is sleeping through the night, you can rest easy knowing we’ve got you covered
Newborn Care Specialists (NCS) – formerly called “baby nurses” or “maternity nurses” – are highly trained professionals who specialize in newborn care. They provide hands-on, nurturing care to for your new baby, day or night, as well as non-judgmental support for parents navigating infancy.
NCS’s are well-versed in infant safety, healthy sleep patterns, sleep routines, feeding food allergies/intolerances, as well as infant soothing techniques. Many of our NCS’s also have experience caring for preemies, multiples, medically fragile babies.
Whether you need a NCS 2-7 nights a week for the first few months, 15-20 hours per week of daytime support until you go back to work, or round-the-clock live-in care during your baby’s first few months of life – we can help.
They say it takes a village to raise a child – consider a Postpartum Doula (PPD) or Registered Nurse (RN) to part of your village. With a focus on maternal care and parental guidance, our PPDs will rally around you while you bond with newborn.
They provide flexible, customized support for postpartum families, typically during daytime hours (4-6 hour shifts). These trained professionals offer evidence-based guidance on newborn care and postpartum health, breastfeeding support, parenting strategies, assistance with light household chores and they’ll even provide care for older siblings while you rest.
By nurturing new parents, and empowering them with information, our PPDs and RNs will help you navigate early parenthood with confidence.
Sleep is vital for a child’s development, growth, and overall well-being. Hiring a sleep consultant (aka sleep trainer) can be a game-changer for parents.
With a sleep consultant’s expert guidance and non-judgmental support, you’ll say goodbye to frustrating bedtime battles and restless nights. They’ll work closely with you to understand your child/children’s sleep challenges, analyze sleep patterns, assess sleep regressions, create a personalized sleep plan, and share strategies for ongoing success.
Investing in a sleep consultant can lead to a happier, healthier child and a more relaxed, well-rested parent. It’s time for you and your little one(s) get a good nights’ rest.

“Night nurse” is an outdated term for an experienced nanny who specializes in overnight childcare. Unfortunately, it’s often quite deceptive as the vast majority of “night nurses” have no medical training, and are not LPNs nor RNs. Thus, about a decade ago, the industry term was changed to “night nanny.”
Night nannies who are looking specialize even further can take an intensive corse to learn even more about newborn care, including feeding and diaper techniques, safe sleep practices and soothing techniques, infant developmental milestones and how to support new parents in their postpartum journey. Upon completion, these individuals will be certified as Newborn Care Specialists.
Yes! We have providers who specialize in providing round-the-clock, comprehensive care for families welcoming home a new baby or even multiples. These Newborn Care Specialists (formerly called night nurses) live in the home, with your family, for the first 2-6 months after the birth of your baby/babies. They are responsible for your newborn’s every need 18-20 hours per day, with a 4-6 hour break typically provided in the afternoon.
First and foremost, the safety of your newborn. They will come in and mTheir top priority is the safety, health and well-being of your newborn. They’re responsible for taking care of your baby throughout the night including feeding (nursing support or formula fed), changing diapers, bathing (upon request), gently establishing healthy sleep routines, and soothing your newborn(s) back to sleep. They will also clean and disinfect bottles and breast pump parts, tidy up the nursery, and assist with the baby’s laundry (upon request).
Once their tasks are complete, they will lightly sleep while your baby is sleeping. Typically, in the same room on a mattress, bed or recliner.
sure your baby feeds (whether you are nursing or using formula), chanarts. Some will also do baby laundry if requested
We suggest you schedule care based on your needs and your budget.
Our newborn care providers are available 8-12 hours/night, 2-7 nights per week, and some even provide 24/7 coverage for up to 6 months.
Families typically hire newborn support for their little one(s) for the first 3-6 months of their life – sometimes less, sometimes longer. The number of nights you schedule care is up to you; some families prefer help 2-3 nights per week while others need 5-7 nights a week.
If your baby/babies are not sleeping through the night at the end of your contract with your night nanny or Newborn Care Specialist, you may be able to extend your contract with the same provider or schedule another provider for additional time.
Our three decades of success stems from a multi-faceted approach to candidate recruitment, including our growing Newborn Care service. While we leverage every recruiting resource available to us, a remarkable 60+% of our annual placements consist of repeat providers – on their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th+ placement – and word-of-mouth referrals from other great night nannies, NCS, and infant care experts.
We truly value our strong bond with the NCS community. We host educational seminars, actively participate in NCS conferences, and maintain close ties with agency owners nationwide. These connections have allowed ABC to cultivate a comprehensive, curated candidate network of newborn care providers – the best of the best, and nothing less.
By fostering trust and delivering unparalleled service, we’ve become the go-to agency for individuals seeking the pinnacle of newborn care staffing expertise.
Yes – ABSOLUTELY! Vetting and identifying great candidates is about so much more than checking a few references and running a background check. Our rigorous applicant screening process, refined over three decades, is designed to identify individuals who have the passion, character, and experience needed to do the job well and weed out the rest. Less than 10% of applicants make the cut.

While it’s advisable to start your search for newborn care earlier rather than later, 3-6+ month lead time is acceptable. Beginning your search early allows us ample time to hand-pick providers specifically for your family, and ensures you have plenty of time to interview potential matches and make a well-informed decision without feeling rushed.
But if you’re short on time, don’t worry! We can help you too. We often have providers who have breaks in their schedules who can assist. Call us and we’re happy to discuss your needs specifically.
Unlike daytime nannies, who are employees of the families they work for, most newborn care providers are considered independent contractors (1099 vs W2) under the law. They set their own rates, provide their own contracts, and have their own small businesses set up to handle payment professionally.
Each individual’s rate of pay is set based on their area of expertise, experience, certifications, and education. The typically pay ranges we see in this market are:
– Night nannies: $30 – $40+ per hour
– Newborn Care Specialists: $35 – $45+ per hour
– Postpartum doulas: $40 – $50 per hour
– Sleep Consultants/Trainers: $45 – $55 per hour
