FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can't find your question? Call or text Lisa anytime. She's happy to help.
How much does overnight newborn care cost?
Overnight care starts at $50 per hour for one baby and $60 per hour for twins. Triplets and additional multiples are priced individually. Shifts are a minimum of 8 hours, so a typical night for one baby is $400.
When should we book?
As early as possible. Many families book during pregnancy, because providers are booked on a first-come, first-served basis. We're also happy to help if your baby has already arrived.
What happens during a night?
Your provider focuses on your baby's safety and wellbeing: feeding, diaper changes, soothing, and building healthy sleep habits. We also help with light baby-related housework such as cleaning bottles and pump parts and doing baby laundry. And we keep you informed, because communication is key.
Can we meet our provider before care begins?
Yes. After your free consultation, Lisa suggests the best match, and you can meet and interview potential providers before making a decision.
Are your providers background-checked and insured?
Yes. Every Bloom provider is background-checked and insured.
Are your providers vaccinated?
If specific vaccinations are important to your family, such as Tdap or the flu shot, just let us know during your consultation. Lisa will make sure your provider has them.
Is there a minimum number of nights?
No. Every contract is personalized to your family. Each shift is a minimum of 8 hours and starts no later than 10:30 PM.
How does the retainer work?
A retainer equal to one week of scheduled care secures your booking. It is non-refundable once your contract is signed and your provider is reserved.
