Sleep Is Not a Luxury. It's How You Show Up for Your Baby.
Bringing a newborn home is one of the most beautiful, overwhelming, exhausting things a family can experience. The love is immediate and enormous. So is the fatigue. Those first weeks at home are relentless: the 2 a.m. feedings, the endless soothing, the fog that settles in before you've had a chance to recover. Even the most prepared parents can find themselves running on empty.
At First Day Lancaster, we believe every family deserves support during those first days at home. Our Night Nanny personal care service in Lancaster, PA provides professional, compassionate overnight newborn care so you can rest, recover, and wake up ready to be the parent you want to be.
What Is a Night Nanny?
A night nanny is an experienced caregiver who comes to your home in the evening and takes overnight responsibility for your newborn. While you sleep, your night nanny handles feedings, diaper changes, soothing, and settling, all while keeping careful notes on your baby's patterns and progress.
Every caregiver we place is thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and trained in newborn care, safe sleep practices, and infant CPR. They come into your home not just with clinical preparation, but with a genuine investment in your family's well-being and a deep understanding of what these first weeks ask of you. By the time they arrive for their first shift, you will already know who they are and feel confident in the care they provide.
What's Included
Every Night Nanny shift is 8 to 12 hours of overnight coverage, tailored to your family's needs and your baby's routine. Services include:
