A night nurse generally works 10-12 hours per night and arrives in the evening and leaves in the morning. Night nurses for triplets are $25-$30 an hr, ( twins charge a rate of $20- $25 an hour.Single Babies are $18 an hr. Night nurses are great if you have been going at it alone for a while, and would like a night or two to catch up on your beauty sleep, or if you'd rather not have someone in your home 24 hours a day. Night nurses generally do not do household chores . A night nurse should clean any bottles that are used during the night and help you to get ready for the next feeding (if you need it) before she leaves in the morning. A NightNurse also documents your babies progress and get them on a schedule that works for both parents.If you should need a 24hr Babynurse, I can always refer you to Nurses and if you are out of the nyc tristate area, I have a network of nurses that will travel both in the US and Internationally.

I also help with Breastfeeding and Lactation issues. My Goal is to assist you with getting your babies on a great sleep pattern which makes both parents/babies lives better. A Well rested Mom = Happy Baby and makes you enjoy your baby/babies.
Parents Every baby is different, what works for a friend may not work for you. Every baby has his/her own mind and the trick is to listen and adjust.
