Troubleshooting maternity nurse needed in SW London

Looking for recommendations for a maternity nurse or night nanny to come in and sort dd out for me. She is a little monkey who refuses to drink her milk during the day, she eats tiny amounts of food and then wakes twice during the night for big bottles of milk.
I know that I could battle away and try and do it myself because I had to do controlled crying with ds. However, I just can't face it - I've got alot on my plate at the moment and she has the most terrifying, piercing shriek which wakes and frightens ds (frightens me too).
So any recommendations?

There's a great agency that two of my friends have used and the nannies were brilliant - specialise in night time nannies/maternity nurses. Both found them incredibly hepful. I'll find the details.

We had this and I started diluting the night time milk bit by bit with water so that DS would be hungrier during the day. I don't know if you've tried this but it worked and he no longer wakes up for it.
