Sleep: the rarest newborn luxury
New parents often joke about living on coffee. But chronic sleep deprivation isn’t funny it impacts physical health, emotional wellbeing, and relationships. That’s why many families in South Florida are turning to night nurses (also called newborn care specialists) for help.
What a night nurse does
- Overnight newborn care → Feeding, burping, diaper changes, soothing
- Parental rest → Gives parents a solid block of uninterrupted sleep
- Education & support → Teaches safe sleep practices, feeding techniques, and soothing tricks
- Transition help → Supports parents until baby sleeps longer stretches
Why families love them
- Healthier recovery → Parents heal faster with real rest
- Lower stress → Confidence that baby is in expert hands
- Better bonding → Well-rested parents are more present and patient
South Florida spotlight 🌴
Night nurse services are in high demand across Miami, Broward, and Palm Beach. Many doulas and postpartum care collectives now offer overnight packages, especially for families without extended family nearby.
