[quote=Anonymous]I’m due with my 2nd child in April 2017 and after a difficult experience with my first and severe sleep deprivation, am considering a ‘night nanny’ or ‘night nurse’ or whatever the correct term is and hire someone come to my home 3-4 nights a week and help feed the baby, change him and settle him back to bed so that my husband and I can get some much-needed rest at least a few nights a week. Can anyone recommend someone that can do the above? And, most importantly, what costs are associated? This is an important factor for us as we weigh our options. Ideally, we would like to have someone 3-4 nights/week starting when the baby is 6 weeks old. I’d prefer not to start before then, I will be breast feeding the first 6 weeks and keeping the baby in a bassinet in my room. However at 6 weeks, my hope is to move him into his crib in his own room and have someone come in, and bottle feed the baby (with formula or pumped breastmilk), change him and hopefully get him into a sleep schedule that we can follow on the nights where it’s just us. Ideally looking to pay $20/hour for 4 nights/week (M,T,W,Th) or $25/hour for 3 nights/week (M,T,W) from 10pm-6am. [/quote]
