  • Experience and Qualifications

    Nannies with extensive experience, certifications (e.g., newborn care specialist), or specific training often charge higher rates.

  • Duties and Responsibilities

    Additional responsibilities, such as bottle preparation, light housekeeping, or sleep training, can increase the cost.

    Demand during peak times, like the holiday season, may drive prices higher.

    Hiring through an agency often includes placement fees or additional charges for their services, adding to the overall cost.

    Some nannies charge a flat overnight rate, while others charge hourly, which can influence costs depending on the length of the shift.

Libby Deutsch

Libby Deutsch is the co-owner of Holistic Family Doulas, a certified birth and postpartum doula and private childbirth educator. Libby is known for her grounded, steady presence and her ability to fully surrender to the person giving birth. Her care is deeply mother-led, rooted in listening, attunement and meeting each client exactly where they are. She is steady without being passive and encouraging without overpowering the moment. A core part of Libby’s work is empowering mothers through education—helping them understand what is happening in their body and brain during labor so they can trust the process and feel more confident in their decisions. Mothers often share that they feel calmer, more grounded and more trusting of themselves after time together. Her foundation in physiologic birth is informed by both training and lived experience, including birthing her own children at home. She supports all types of birth with equal respect and works seamlessly across home, birth center and hospital settings. She is especially skilled at supporting mothers navigating complex emotions, previous trauma or a desire to reclaim and rewrite their birth experience—gently reminding them of their inherent strength. Libby’s postpartum care is intentional and nurturing, centered on restoration, nourishment and emotional steadiness. Drawing from global postpartum traditions, including Malay bellybinding (trained by The Birth Matron), vaginal steaming and Ayurvedic principles, she offers slow, thoughtful care that prioritizes the mother’s recovery. Through her training in yoga and Reiki, she brings a calming presence that supports mothers as they reconnect with their bodies and trust themselves in this new season. Libby’s role is not to lead your experience, but to walk beside you—offering steadiness, encouragement and trust as you move through birth and into motherhood, reminding you of your strength every step of the way.

Me and my wife found Niaja on Bornbir, recommended by a doctor We had the pleasure of having Niaja as our overnight nanny for our twin newborns, and we couldn't be more grateful for her help. One of our twins required an oxygen machine and needed close monitoring, and Niaja handled it with such care and professionalism. She was amazing, reliable, and trustworthy, always ensuring our little one was safe and comfortable.In addition to her exceptional care, she also helped with washing and sterilizing bottles and keeping up with the baby laundry, which was a huge relief for us. Niaja truly went above and beyond, and we highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dedicated and compassionate nanny. Thank you, Niaja, for everything!

Choosing Amy as our homebirth midwife was the best decision we made for our family. From our very first consultation, I knew she was different. She doesn’t just “do midwifery” — she embodies it. She is deeply knowledgeable, confident, and grounded, but also incredibly warm and intuitive. I never once felt rushed, dismissed, or pressured. Every appointment felt like true care, not just a checkup. During labor, Amy’s presence was everything. She was calm, steady, and completely trusting of my body. She knew when to offer guidance and when to simply hold space. I felt safe, empowered, and fully supported through every wave. My birth felt sovereign, respected, and deeply sacred. Her postpartum care has been just as amazing. She checks on both mom and baby thoroughly — physically and emotionally. She genuinely cares about the whole family, not just the clinical boxes that need to be checked. If you are looking for a homebirth midwife who honors physiological birth, protects your autonomy, and brings both skill and sacredness into the room, Amy is who you want. I will forever be grateful she walked this journey with us.

Molly went above and beyond my expectations helping my family prepare and welcome our new baby. She created a safe space for me in such a vulnerable, stressful, and uncertain time of my life. Molly is reliable, trustworthy, exceptionally smart, and very in tune with her surroundings. She has a kind and comforting energy around her that requires little, if any, need for adjustment. I felt validated, listened to, and understood. Molly helped me feel capable of myself, loved and cared for, and answered to my needs without having to ask. I would not be in the same place that I am without Molly as our doula. I highly recommend her services and couldn't ask for a better person to guide me and my family.
