A little bit about us

Hi there!

We’re a family of four with two little ones, one starting kindergarten and one starting pre-K this fall, plus a friendly orange cat who is part of the crew too. We live in Novi.

I’m a nurse and just moved into a new role with a rotating schedule, so our routine looks a little different than most families. I work 12-hour shifts, some days (7am-7:30pm) and some nights (7pm-7:30am), scheduled in 4-week blocks, roughly half days and half nights, plus a couple weekend shifts each month.

On the days I’m working days, I need help getting the kids up, fed, and out the door to school, then picked up and looked after until I’m home for dinner. On the days I’m working nights, I need someone to come around 5:30pm to help with dinner, baths, and bedtime, then stay overnight, and on school mornings get the kids ready (maybe even drop them off) until I get home from my shift. On my scheduled weekend shifts I’d need someone for the full day or overnight, depending which one it is.

There’s also some light pet care involved (treats, pets).

Because of the schedule, we really need someone serious about committing long term, not just looking for something short term or flexible on their end. We’re also hoping to find someone active and engaged with the kids: playing, crafts, outside time, reading, that kind of thing, rather than a lot of screen time. Reliability and genuinely wanting to be part of their day matters a lot to us.

What Are Night Nanny Jobs?

Night nanny jobs are overnight positions caring for children while their parents sleep, often for a newborn. These jobs suit nannies who prefer working nights, have newborn care experience, or want a schedule that leaves the daytime free.

Types of Night Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities

Duties include overnight feeds, diaper changes, soothing, and sleep logs, and for older children, overnight supervision. Some jobs are a few nights a week, and others are full-time for the first months of a baby's life. Check the nights, the shift hours, and whether you are expected to stay awake or can sleep when the child does.

How to Interview for Night Nanny Jobs

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:

  • Which nights and hours do you need, and how long will the job last?
  • Will I be awake all night, or can I sleep when the baby does?
  • Where will I stay, and what is provided?
  • How will feeding be handled, breast or bottle?
  • How is overnight pay handled, and is there a written agreement?

Beyond asking these questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
