Because rested parents raise happier babies

Space is limited to protect care quality
The first weeks home can be challenging, but we make home feel like home.
So…what does a night care nanny do?
We’re like the mother-in-law you’re excited to have help:
Assisted breast feedings or bottle feedings, diaper changes, swaddling, soothing, and more - we take chores off your plate to promote rest and recovery
Parental transition guidance specific to your baby - don’t waste money on resources made for someone else’s baby
Consistent, organized, and expert care to ensure a seamless transition into parenthood
Why Cozy Penguin Works
The Cozy Penguin Care difference combines a best-in-class Night Care Nanny experience with the support you deserve
From education to more sleep - we have you covered.
Sleep Tonight, Not “Eventually”
Our caregivers arrive ready with a night-by-night plan so you can hand off, rest, and wake to a detailed baby log.
Specialists, Not Sitters
Every night nanny in our network is thoroughly trained in newborn care, with a strong foundation in safe sleep, feeding routines, infant soothing techniques, and postpartum family support
Setting the Standards and Expectations
Before a night care nanny steps foot in your house, Cozy Penguin has resources to prepare your family and your night care nanny for care expectations, preferences, and organization.
Shared App for Tracking Purposes
Track feedings, diapers, and caregiver notes from your phone—updated before sunrise.
Knowledge Library
We’ve transformed those complicated care guides written by experts into something that’s short, sweet, and easy to understand. Perfect for new parents or for those looking to brush up on their skills!
Partners In Care
We collaborate with parents to establish a care plan that works for their unique family.
Our experiences with night care nannies.
The Stewart Family
“Our night care nanny saved our sanity. Twins were a crazy experience - it’s not 2x as hard, it’s more like 10x as hard. If we didn’t do a night care nanny, I’m not sure how we would have survived.”
The Copper Family
“Our night care nanny Tyler was a game changer. As new parents, you really don’t know what to expect and she gave us so much confidence and knowledge that we wouldn’t have had on our own. We’re better parents because of Tyler.”

Given that our night care nannies are taking care of two children at a time, the cost may be higher than the listed price for a single child. We’re happy to provide more information during the introductory consultation.
