Frequently asked questions
What is your minimum commitment for overnight care?
To ensure your family gets meaningful rest and consistent routine building, I require a minimum of 8 hours per night.
What actually happens during an Overnight Support shift?
I handle everything so you can sleep. I soothe, change, and monitor your baby. For bottle feeding, I manage it entirely. For breastfeeding, I bring the baby to you and handle all the burping, soothing, and clean-up afterward.
What is included in the "Nursery Prep" for overnights?
Before my shift ends, I wash and sterilize all bottles and pump parts used overnight, restock the diaper station, and leave the nursery organized for your day.
What exactly do we do during the 3-Hour In-Home Transition visit?
We physically practice swaddling and soothing techniques, audit your nursery setup for optimal safe sleep, organize your feeding stations, and map out a realistic daily routine.
How does the 48-hour text support work for the Virtual Consult?
After our 90-minute video call, you can text me any follow-up questions for the next 2 days. It is perfect for those "wait, how did we say to do this?" moments.
What happens if my baby arrives early or late?
Don't worry! I keep a flexible window around your due date or expected NICU discharge. We will stay in close contact to adjust your official start date.
