A maternity nurse provides support on an almost 24-hour basis (with some time during the day to rest) and is there to help establish routines and enable mum to rest and recuperate.
A night nanny provides support from evening until morning and enables parents to rest while teaching baby good sleeping habits. If you’re breastfeeding, your night nanny can bring the baby to mum for a feed and then settle the baby back to sleep.
Often, first, time-parents will hire a maternity nurse, and for any later babies, they will hire a night nanny.
