A little bit about me

Hey Families,

I am Carol, an experienced night nanny who has been working with families and their newborns during this special time of their lives for over five years.

I understand that the beginning can be very challenging as you adjust to a new routine, and a night nanny can be very helpful. Therefore, I am here to offer my services. As a night nanny, my duties include:

- Prioritizing the infant's absolute safety above all.
- Soothing and encouraging good sleep habits.
- Feeding, which can include a combination of bringing the infant to the mother to breastfeed and preparing/giving the infant a bottle.
- Administering meds and/or following health protocols for the infant as directed by the family.
- Laundering the infant's clothing.
- Cleaning the bottles and pumping equipment.
- Keeping the nursery and baby areas organized, and restocked.
- Having a sleep-trained baby by the end of our contract.

Feel free to message me. I'd love to know you and chat more :)
