As a certified newborn care specialist, I provide a range of services designed to support families during the first few months of their baby’s life. My core services include overnight care, where I manage all of the baby’s nighttime needs, allowing parents to get much-needed rest. This includes feeding, diaper changes, and comforting the baby during sleep disturbances. I also offer customized sleep training to help establish healthy sleep patterns, tailored to the specific needs and temperament of your newborn. In addition to hands-on care, I provide guidance for new parents, sharing valuable knowledge on newborn feeding, establishing daily routines, and addressing common concerns such as soothing techniques and developmental milestones. Whether you’re looking for occasional night support or more frequent care, I adapt my services to meet your family’s needs, ensuring that you feel confident and supported during this beautiful and sometimes challenging transition into parenthood.
We hired Shamar as a night nurse a few nights a week for the first 8 weeks of our daughter's life. Shamar was calm, warm, supportive, professional, and helped us build foundational sleep habits with our baby. We are so grateful for her support and expertise!

Shamar was a night nurse for my son and was incredible. She did feedings, diaper changes, bathing, monitoring of his sleep, and generally making sure he was safe and healthy. We trusted her entirely and she took amazing care of our son. She was incredibly punctual and reliable — she never cancelled on us. She’s very pleasant to be around, proactive, and has excellent judgment. She never hesitated to ask a question but was also very self sufficient. Shamar has a wealth of knowledge and experience with newborns and I highly recommend her.
