Night Nanny & Overnight Newborn Care: What Parents Should Know

A night nanny — also called an overnight newborn care specialist — takes the night shift so you can sleep: feeds, diaper changes, soothing, and gentle sleep conditioning while you recover.

What a night nanny does

• Full overnight care, typically 8pm to 7am
• Night feeds — bottle or bringing baby for nursing
• Soothing, settling and safe-sleep routines
• Gentle sleep conditioning from the earliest weeks
• A written log of the night, every night

What it costs

Expect $40–$75 per hour in major US markets, with most families booking three to five nights per week for the first eight to twelve weeks.

Book early

The best night nannies are booked months ahead — ideally by your second trimester. Last-minute arrangements are possible but limit your options.
