Night Nannies & Night Nurses Near Me in Yonkers, NY

After having a pregnancy that was not like my first for reasons other than health, I received a postpartum herbal bath from Alexandra. The experience was truly exceptional as the way in which she took her time to curate a bath that was specific to me and my needs was barely the pinnacle of my experience. In moments of uncertainty as a mother, whether it is your first or your third, the care you receive matters. Receiving care from Alexandra is an experience within itself that can only be described within a feeling, one that is sweetened with care and someone who is committed to carrying you to the other of your vulnerability. I recommend her services to others as she is an exceptional individual who is serious about her craft and the care of the children in which she assisted in coming into this world. Again, I can not fully put into words what it is like as you would have to experience her services to understand. I can say within a day I was up and walking, and the aches and pain had vanished seemingly overnight after the bath. Simply plain and put she is passionate and dedicated and will show up for you.

Breaganae was an amazing newborn care provider for our family. She was caring, patient, dependable, and very attentive to our baby’s needs. We always felt comfortable knowing our baby was in her care. She was great at creating a calm environment and helping with our baby’s nighttime routine. She handled feedings, diaper changes, soothing, and settling our baby back to sleep with so much patience. She was also respectful of our preferences as parents and communicated with us about how the baby did throughout the night. Breaganae has a very nurturing and gentle approach with newborns, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about our baby’s comfort and well-being. Having her support gave us peace of mind and allowed us to get some much-needed rest. We would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and compassionate newborn care provider.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Wis!!! Though she wasn’t physically in my delivery room, she played a big part in my birth. She provided so much information that was not only interesting but very useful. She helped me a lot when it came to advocating for myself as a high risk mom. I had a few situations where I felt uncomfortable about the circumstances around how my child was born but Wis prayed with me and provided valuable resources so that I could make informed decisions about my care. Choosing Wis to be your doula would never be a mistake. The love, the care, and dedication she puts into this is beyond a job. I’ve gotten to know and seen her on a personal level and the fact that she’s back in school so she can continue to learn how to support women and families through such a precious time attest to her passion and professionalism around birth work.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Cheryl and the support she provided throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience. From the beginning, Cheryl and I connected so well, and I immediately felt comfortable with her. As a first-time mom, that was so important to me. I was in a new city, delivering at a new hospital, and trusting a care team I had never worked with before, so having someone in my corner who I genuinely trusted made such a difference. One of the things I appreciated most was how much Cheryl prepared both my husband and I before I went into labor. She helped us create our birth plan, taught us different exercises, positions, and circuits I could use to prepare for labor and during labor, and most importantly, taught us how to advocate for ourselves and communicate what I wanted during my birth experience. That preparation gave us so much more confidence going into the hospital. Her support continued immediately after I gave birth. Cheryl helped me navigate those first moments of postpartum, including helping my baby latch for breastfeeding, which meant so much to me as a first-time mom. She made sure I felt supported, comfortable, and cared for during such a new and vulnerable moment. What makes Cheryl even more amazing is that her care didn’t stop after I gave birth. Five months postpartum, she STILL checks in, not only to see how I’m doing and adjusting to motherhood, but also to ask about my baby and my husband. She remembers our names, asks about each of us, and genuinely cares about how we’re doing as a family. She has also made it a priority to hear and understand my experience as a first-time Black mother, which has been incredibly meaningful to me. Her support has never felt like simply providing a service and moving on once the baby was born. The connection we built is genuine, and it’s clear that Cheryl truly cares about the mother, the baby, and the family as a whole. I’m so grateful that Cheryl was part of such an important chapter in our lives. She made me feel heard, prepared, cared for, and supported during one of the biggest transitions of my life. If you’re looking for a doula who is knowledgeable and compassionate but also someone who will genuinely get to know you and care about your family beyond your delivery day, I HIGHLY recommend Cheryl. ❤️

Taylor was my birth doula, and I truly feel it was divine intervention that she came into my life—especially since my son was born on her birthday. From the very beginning, she was incredibly attentive, informative, and intentional in supporting both me and my husband. She created a detailed binder for us with guides on what to expect, postpartum care, exercises, and nutritious foods that were safe for both me and my baby. The information was so thorough that I never felt the need to search elsewhere. One moment that deeply stood out to me was when I shared that I wanted to play Surahs during my labor and delivery. At our next visit, Taylor had printed out different Surahs along with explanations of their purposes, making it easier for me to choose what I wanted to hear. That level of thoughtfulness meant so much to me. I also appreciated her honesty and professionalism. If she didn’t know something, she would say so—then either refer me to my midwives or research and follow up with me. During labor and delivery, she was calm, knowledgeable, and attentive. She impressed the medical staff, made me feel safe and advocated for, and ensured my husband felt supported and confident asking questions. Taylor made a huge impact on my first delivery, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better doula. Even now, she continues to send monthly emails with updates on my son’s development and what to expect as I heal. Taylor is amazing, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about what she does.

Karen has watched all three of my babies, and I recommend her highly. She just “gets” babies. When I was a first-time mom, I learned so much just from watching her. I have seen her soothe my screaming babies and calm them like magic. She is very detail oriented and meticulous with directions. I always slept better knowing she was taking care of my children. If your baby is slightly older, she also cooks fresh baby food. As a bonus, she will always leave your house as clean (or much cleaner) than when she came in!

Elizabeth supported me throughout my pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Throughout my pregnancy it was so helpful to have her just a text or phone call away if I had any questions, anxiety, or someone to vent to. As a first time mom, I had a lot of questions (e.g. "is XYZ normal??") and put a lot of pressure on myself to become educated on pregnancy and labor/birth. Elizabeth always provided empathetic and evidenced-based responses which helped me make informed decisions. It was a blessing that I didn't need to go down Google rabitholes. She proactively checked in on me, helped me prepare for doctor appointments, and supported me during any complications that arose during my pregnancy. She educated my husband and me on what to expect during labor, how he could support me, and how we could advocate for the care we wanted. She helped us develop a birth plan and stick to it. My labor and birth went better than I could have hoped for, and without her, I don't think that would have been the case. To anyone considering doula, I highly recommend working with Elizabeth!

Christina was an absolute godsend for our family after our daughter was born. She was our night nurse for about two months, starting when our daughter was just two days old. Thanks to her, I was able to get the rest I desperately needed during those early postpartum weeks, which made an enormous difference in both my recovery and my mental health. Cookie was incredibly gentle, patient, and loving with our daughter. It was obvious from the very beginning that she truly adores babies and has a gift for caring for them. I'll always remember how sweet she was as she helped me give my daughter her very first bath. As a first time mom with very little baby experience, I learned so much from her. She taught me how to burp our daughter, how much to feed her, which bottle nipples worked best, how to recognize her sleepy cues, and how to soothe and rock her effectively. She was also an invaluable source of support as I learned to breastfeed and pump, while helping us thoughtfully decide when supplementing with formula was the right choice to ensure our daughter was getting what she needed. More than anything, Cookie gave me confidence. She provided so much reassurance during a time that felt completely new and overwhelming. I trusted her wholeheartedly and slept peacefully knowing my daughter was in such capable, loving hands. Beyond being an exceptional caregiver, Cookie is simply a joy to be around. She's warm, funny, and full of stories, and I genuinely enjoyed the positive energy she brought into our home. She even surprised us by bringing Guyanese food from one of her favorite restaurants for us to try, which was such a thoughtful gesture. At the same time, she was always respectful of our home, our routines, and the moments when our family needed quiet time together. We are incredibly grateful for the care, guidance, and kindness Cookie gave our family during one of the most important seasons of our lives. I would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for an experienced, compassionate, and trustworthy newborn care specialist.

Without Shelly, I don’t know how I would have gotten through it. She was such a strong support system during my labor, and the messages and techniques she used while I was having contractions helped manage the pain so much—they made it far more tolerable. Even after childbirth, she continued to be there for me, helping with anything I needed. I know that if I ever have any questions or need support, she will always be there to assist me. I feel truly blessed to have had such an amazing doula throughout my pregnancy journey.

I cannot say enough good things about Simone as our night doula and lactation consultant. From the moment she entered our home, she brought a sense of calm, compassion, and expertise that made an immediate difference in our postpartum experience. As a second-time mom navigating recovery, sleep deprivation, and feeding challenges, her presence was nothing short of a gift. She supported our entire family with such gentleness and professionalism. Her overnight care allowed us to get desperately needed rest, knowing our baby was in kind, capable hands. Her lactation guidance was equally invaluable. She offered evidence-based support with zero judgment—troubleshooting tummy issues, providing reassurance, and giving practical tools that worked. Thanks to her help, I went from overwhelmed and in pain to confident and empowered. I did not feel a bit of judgment when I chose to go from breastfeeding to formula due to my baby's tummy issues. She listened deeply, responded thoughtfully, and truly respected our parenting values. She didn’t just care for our baby—she cared for us. If you're looking for someone who is not only highly skilled but also emotionally attuned and reliable, I wholeheartedly recommend Simone. She’s an absolute gem and a vital part of our early parenting story.

Kesha was our family's night doula during the first few months of life for our son. She fundamentally changed the way we approached care during this time, and I question if we could have made it without her! Professionalism aside, Kesha became a part of our little family, and treated our son as if he were her own. She has a genuine care for children that is obvious the moment you meet her. The care goes beyond the baby though, as she assisted my wife through the early stages of breastfeeding as well. Trying to understand childcare through the internet is a daunting task and leads to more confusion than clarity - Kesha cleared 100% of that confusion up and set us on a path we wouldn't have found without her. We should have another baby just so we can spend more time with her!!

My husband and I are so thankful to have worked with Jen through my first pregnancy. She worked with us through a series of educational sessions in our home which really worked for us. We were looking to get a hands-on learning experience to walk us through everything to expect for labor & delivery but really we got so much more. Yes, you will get insights on pregnancy, birth and postpartum but Jen gives you undivided support and care - it really feels like a personal journey. I felt comfortable being myself and sharing with her about my life and preferences which was crucial in creating my birth plan. Her sessions were so impactful. I recalled a lot of her key notes while I was in labor and was able to make decisions that felt right for me in the moment. Outside of this, my husband felt really confident and empowered in his role for me as well. I also found that everything she taught us on partner advocacy has gone beyond the delivery room and strengthened our relationship overall which has been a huge plus! It was amazing to have had her support and wealth of knowledge in preparation for the birth of my son. I highly recommend working with her if you’re looking to experience an informed, supported, and empowered journey!
