Find Night Nanny & Night Nurse Jobs in Norwalk, CT

Looking for postpartum help. I plan to give birth at Garnet Hospital in Middletown NY.

Hospital birth Budget: 2500-5000 Birth plan TBD still early Certifications required 5+ years experience

I am a first time mom due November 8th. We live in Kinnelon and are looking for postpartum doula support likely 3-4 nights a week to start with a handful of days for education. We have two mature cats in the home and my parents live downstairs. I am planning to breastfeed. We are looking for someone with lactation certification and at least 3-5 years experience. We want someone who can help us rest while also giving us the skills we need to care for our baby. We want to get baby into good habits early around sleep, feeding, etc.

I want to gift my sister a Night Nanny service for her first baby. She lives in West Orange New Jersey. Looking for someone who specializes in Night Nanny care, who takes detailed notes, and is certified. Hoping for hours of 8pm - 6am. Of high importance to me is a nurse certified in safe sleep practices to reduce risk of SIDS, middle of the night breastfeeding support like bringing the baby to mom and then handling everything afterwards (burping, holding upright, swaddling etc), washing of bottle and pump parts as well as milk collection, labeling and storage methods.

We are having a hard time figuring out how to get our 6 month old to sleep through the night. On average he wakes up 2-3 times per night with some nights as difficult as every few hours however he has also had some nights where he slept through the night. We can't seem to find a routine that works consistently. Since we are both working, we are considering a night nanny for Monday & Tuesday nights to help with the beginning of the week. We are unsure if this is even in our budget and just beginning to explore options... thank you
