A Baby Nurse is an infant specialist. The backgrounds of Baby Nurses vary. Baby Nurses have backgrounds as licensed nurses, certified nurse’s aides, doulas, nannies and paraprofessionals who have many years of experience. The focus of their job is caring for the newborn baby and assisting the new mother in her recovery. Assignments last between two weeks and six months. Baby Nurses are predominately available for hire on a shift basis. Baby Nurses work night shifts or day shifts. A Baby Nurse can live-in on a 24 hour basis but very few work 24 hour shifts due to the physical demands and loss of sleep. Some baby nurses specialize in the care of multiples.
