Support Designed Around Your Family
A Newborn Care Specialist is trained specifically to support families during the newborn stage. Unlike traditional childcare, newborn care focuses on the unique needs of both baby and parents during the first weeks and months at home.
Care is personalized around your family’s routines, preferences, and level of support needed, and may include:

Helping create more consistency and ease at home
At District Sitter, we also provide overnight newborn care for families looking for additional support during the postpartum stage.

Overnight care often includes:
Overnight feedings
Diaper changes
Soothing and settling baby
Monitoring newborn sleep patterns
Bottle preparation and cleaning
Support establishing healthy overnight routines
