Benefits of Hiring a Night Nurse
Bringing home a baby is such a tender and beautiful season. The days (and nights) are full of firsts—those sleepy snuggles, soft newborn sighs, and heart-melting little stretches. But this season is also a big shift. Between learning your baby’s cues, healing from birth, and navigating the swirl of emotions and exhaustion that come with it all, it’s easy to feel like you’re running on empty.
The truth? You weren’t meant to do this alone. And you don’t have to.
At Choose Joy Nursing, our team of experienced registered nurses is here to bring expert, heart-centered care into your home during those overnight hours—so you can rest, heal, and ease into motherhood with confidence and support.
What We Do While You Sleep
Our in-home night nurses care for your baby throughout the night while you sleep nearby, knowing your little one is in trusted, professional hands. From 9 PM to 7 AM (or adjusted to fit your family’s needs), we tend to every diaper, feeding, burp, and soothing snuggle—gently and attentively.
If you're breastfeeding, we bring your baby to you and take care of everything afterward so you can go straight back to sleep. If you're pumping or using bottles, we handle all feedings and even clean and store bottles and pump parts. We also offer guidance with safe sleep, swaddling, upright holding, and gentle sleep habit foundations—starting from day one.
But our care goes beyond baby—we’re here for you, too. Whether you’re recovering from birth, navigating the early days emotionally, or simply needing a full night of uninterrupted sleep, we’re here to wrap around your whole family with thoughtful support.
Why Sleep Really Matters
Rest isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Especially during the postpartum season, sleep directly impacts how you heal, how you feel, and how you're able to show up for your baby.
You are your baby’s coregulator. Your energy, calm, and presence set the tone for your little one. Taking care of yourself is one of the most powerful ways you can take care of your baby.
When parents are able to sleep:
They heal faster
Think more clearly
Feel more grounded and confident
When moms are well-rested, the chances of postpartum anxiety and mood disorders significantly decrease. And when families feel supported from the start, they’re set up for success not just in the newborn days—but for the long run.
Who Benefits from a Night Nurse?
This kind of care is a game-changer for so many types of families, especially those who are:
Wanting expert newborn care overnight so they can get restorative sleep
Recovering from delivery and in need of extra support for healing and rest
Healing from C-sections or complicated births and need added nighttime help
Navigating the fourth trimester without nearby family or support
First-time parents feeling overwhelmed by middle-of-the-night feedings and care
Parents of multiples who need an extra set (or two) of hands
Breastfeeding moms looking for support with latching, positioning, and overnight routines
Families hoping to gently establish healthy sleep habits from the start
Anyone wanting peace of mind knowing a trusted professional is watching over their baby while they rest
If any of these resonate—you’re not alone, and we’re here for you.
