Night nannie for disabled new mum

You can hire night nannies, one of my sil used one for a sort of similar reason. She paid about £100-120 a night and the night nanny did all the wakings/feeding and changing in another part of the house. She employed her for about 6 months.

I think though if you feel you are a risk during the day you need to contact social services who will be able to advise you better, there maybe resources available to help you.

You can absolutely hire night nannies, they’re available in most cities.

We paid £120 a night, in London.

They slept in the same room as the baby and handled all wakes. I was breastfeeding so they’d bring him into me for every other feed, - id just wake up, feed, go back to sleep without worrying about nappies/winding etc. They did the other feeds with expressed milk.

I’m not sure how you’d access any kind of funding for that service though.

I think you need to think about what you want them to do and how would it work.

Is baby in with you? Would you expect them to sit downstairs for 7 hours with a monitor and run up for every cry and feed? You'll still be disturbed.
Could baby go into their own room and you hire someone to stay in that room as baby shouldn't be alone all night? You could possibly get a day bed and agree they can snooze.

Would you want them to stay downstairs with baby in a moses basket?

I mean you can hire someone to do anything you ask, but you seem unclear what you want or need.

What kind of job does DH have? Could he have baby untill midnight downstairs and you go to bed at 9 and then he does wake ups until 5 and you do wake ups after 5?

What did your consultant and health visitor advise? Technically you can employ anyone for however long you want... But I find it odd how you've had 9 months warning of this and haven't got anything in place?!
