| We are looking for a night nurse to work in DC in early December for a couple of weeks. Any recommendations? Closer to $20-25 would be great. Thanks! |

| Are you in need of a nurse, who is an RN, or a Newborn Care Specialist? Or are you seeking a night nanny who has newborn experience? The pay rates are very different for the 3 options, so you’ll have better luck getting suggestions if you clarify your needs. |

For that price range. You’ll probably get a night nanny
Night nurse (someone with a nursing degree) NCS (someone certified as a newborn specialist) Night nanny (someone to come and just feed baby no sleep training or other things done. Just to let you sleep ) |

| Try Let Mommy Sleep. They were great and you could pick the level of care you needed (i.e. RN, LPN, etc.) |

| Doula Care of Maryland and Metropolitan Doulas both have certified overnight postpartum doulas. |

| Call Allison at +1 (571) 420-6799, she’s a NCS and Doula, and you won’t have to pay agency fees on top of her hourly rate. |

| Balanced Bellies has PostPartum Doulas and Newborn Care Specialists in that range. They were so helpful with both of our children. |

I love my night nurse, Kumba

I also love a Kumba! She’s the best, and made having a newborn as stress-free as possible at night. She’s a true baby professional and our son is so happy around her.

| Be prepared to pay $30+. Or look for a doula. Still will be more expensive than you think. |
