I’m a night nanny (or an NCS as we are called- Newborn Care Specialist) and I’m currently holding a little 9 day old while her parents sleep tonight. I mainly work in an area on the East Coasg comparable to DC, and 30-35$ is about the average if you are not using an agency. Agencies tend to charge a bit more so they get their cut and the NCS gets theirs.

No one needs an “actual nurse “ to care for a baby properly and lovingly. Sorry to break it to you.

Lots of wonderful loving capable people out there without a degree that can care for a newborn.

OKay then, why are we calling these women "nurses" ? Why aren't we calling them babysitters or nannies? Why are we diminishing an entire profession that now requires a 4-yr degree, state licensure, and a national board exam - by calling random females "nurses" ?

If I need guy to just mow my lawn, I don't ask DCUM for "arborist" recommendations. We don't say we want to hire a veterinarian if what we really want is in-home pet care.

Because I agree with you -- unless your newborn is apneic, you don't need a registered RN to burp your baby so you can avoid waking up in the night.

For the same reason we nurse our infants, put them to sleep in a nursery, etc.

It’s colloquial. No one is diminished.
