What is a Newborn Care Specialist (NCS)?
Newborn Care Specialist (NCS), noun
(also known as a baby nurse or infant care specialist)
- A professional who specializes in providing expert newborn care for children during their first few weeks or months of life, assisting parents in the care and development of their newborns.
What does an NCS do?
- Provide care in the first weeks of a baby’s life that are often the most turbulent, allowing you to properly recover, sleep well, and be happy.
- Establish a routine and schedule that will have your baby sleeping through the night sooner and getting through those rough patches in the early stages of development.
- Provide wisdom and guidance to new parents about nutrition, sleep, postpartum recovery, lactation, and proper newborn care, giving you the peace of mind you deserve.
Schedule Options:
Day or Night Time Care
Night time hours are typically 7pm to 7am or similar. Day time hours are similar, 7am to 7pm. It is standard for the Newborn Care Specialist to work 10-13 hour shifts.
24 Hour Care
Typically, families will have 2-3 NCSs who rotate between days and nights. Rarely, a team will rotate a schedule of 24hr shifts. This is not the most common schedule for families.
