If you are breastfeeding, we would set up a plan you are comfortable with. For some moms overnight this means receiving an alert when it’s time to breastfeed, and you’d join us in the nursery. For other moms this means setting alarms to pump at certain times during the night.

You then would leave the pump parts outside of your bedroom door for me to clean and I would store and organize the breast milk in the refrigerator. I can even bring you a water and a snack. What’s important is allowing you to get as much sleep as possible so that you feel more capable to handle baby the next day!

• Overnight care for newborn

• 24 hour care for newborn

• Assistance with the postpartum period

• Care for siblings when necessary

• Education for the parents

For an overnight – I’d begin by arriving at 7:00pm, or a time of your choice. I would be able to listen to a run down of the day, and also address any concerns you may have. I would also be able to help you with setting up a bedtime routine that works for your family.

Once everyone is asleep for the night I would begin other duties by helping wash, sanitize and store bottle parts. I would also be able to organize and store pumped milk.

I would be helping fold the large amounts of newborn laundry.

If 24 hour care is desired, I am happy to help with light housekeeping tasks, provide opportunities for self care, and plan for and make nourishing meals for your family. I also would be able to help with siblings. My goal is to have everyone well integrated to new baby life.
