Before you hire. Whoever you choose for overnight newborn care, interview them first: ask about newborn experience, references, infant CPR certification, insurance, and exactly what a night looks like. Rates and availability change — always confirm directly.

Not sure what to ask on the first call? We keep the five questions that matter — experience, certification, insurance, what a night actually looks like, and rates — on the main overnight-help page, along with what good help looks like.
