About Alycea

Hi parents! I’m Alycea, a senior nursing student completing my BSN, offering dedicated overnight infant care and postpartum care support for growing families. Bringing a newborn home is one of life’s sweetest milestones, but it also brings real recovery demands and sleep deprivation. My mission is simple: to provide calm, high-level clinical reassurance and gentle newborn care so you can rest, recover, and feel completely supported during the postpartum period. Why Parents Choose My Care: Clinical Foundation: Having completed dedicated maternal and newborn clinical rotations, I bring clinical assessment awareness, strict hygiene protocols, and evidence-based safety knowledge into your home. Comprehensive Night & Day Support: Whether you need overnight sleep coverage (10 PM to 6 AM shifts), feed management, or daytime postpartum assistance, I tailor my routine to fit your family’s goals. Holistic Postpartum Care: I support the whole family unit—from safe sleep setups, soothing, and bottle-feeding/pump sanitization to ensuring mom prioritizes her own hydration, nutrition, and rest. As a nursing student, I am naturally detail-oriented, punctual, and calm under pressure. I respect every family’s unique parenting philosophy and aim to be a seamless, grounding presence in your home!

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with breastfed/chestfed babies as a night nanny?

Yes! For nursing parents, I will handle soothing, diaper changes, and pre-feed prep, bring baby to you to feed in bed, and then take baby back for burping and settling so you can go straight back to sleep.

What is your cancellation or scheduling policy?

Because I coordinate shifts around my clinical and academic schedule, I maintain clear, written agreements with set, guaranteed hours so families always know when to expect me.

Do you offer formal medical care or act as a private pediatric nurse?

While I apply my clinical nursing training (such as assessment awareness, infection control, BLS certification, and evidence-based safe sleep protocols) to every shift, my services on Bornbir are provided as non-medical postpartum and newborn care support. I do not diagnose conditions, administer prescription medications, or replace your family's pediatrician.

How do overnight shifts work if I am breastfeeding?

Night shifts are tailored around your specific feeding goals! For nursing mothers, I can manage all pre-feed prep, diaper changes, and soothing. When it is time to feed, I bring your baby directly to you in bed. Once nursing is finished, I can take baby back to handle burping, swaddling, settling, and sanitizing pump parts so you can go right back to sleep.

Do you provide sleep training?

During the newborn period (the first 12 weeks), formal sleep training is not age-appropriate. Instead, I focus on building healthy sleep foundations following the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) safe sleep guidelines. I help your infant distinguish between day and night, establish gentle soothing routines, and recognize early hunger and sleep cues.

How do we communicate what happens during the night?

You will never have to guess how the night went! I maintain a detailed digital or paper (family preference) overnight log documenting exact feeding times, ounces/nursing duration, wet and dirty diaper counts, and sleep windows. We will do a brief verbal handoff at the end of every "shift."

How far in advance should we book your services?

Because I balance shifts around my academic and hospital clinical schedule, I recommend reaching out during your second or third trimester to reserve guaranteed dates on my calendar. However, I also accept last-minute openings for families already home with a newborn whenever my schedule allows.

What safety standards do you follow in our home?

Infant safety is my highest priority. I hold active Basic Life Support (BLS/CPR) credentials, maintain up-to-date vaccinations (including Tdap and flu), practice strict hand hygiene, and strictly enforce AAP safe sleep practices (ABC: alone, on their back, in a clear crib or bassinet).
