A Nod To Night Nannies
You know you're sleep deprived after the birth of your newborn when you walk down the hall cradling a pillow in your arms while your bundle of joy cries in the nursery. There's a great deal of emotion and anxiety tied into those sleepless nights, especially if this is your first baby. Of course you want to be a good parent! Unfortunately, your desire to be a good parent prevents you from getting a good night's sleep. Never mind the frequent night feedings, it's every little burp and gurgle that keeps you awake. If you're at the point where your baby monitor is picking up the voices of other parents in the neighborhood, but you think the monitor is actually talking to you, it's time to consider hiring a night nanny!
A night nanny is someone who stays at your home during the nights and into the wee hours of the morning, providing back-up part time nanny care. Generally, a night nanny is someone specially trained to work with newborns. She may have a nursing background, but it isn't a necessity. All you need is the peace of mind in knowing that your baby is being cared for so that you can sleep peacefully through the night. After all, you want to be known as a loving parent, not a hallucinating one!
