About This Service

What does an overnight nanny do?

An overnight nanny stays in your home overnight, typically from around 8pm to 8am, to care for your children while you sleep or while you're away. For newborns and young babies, overnight nannies handle night feeds, nappy changes, and sleep settling — allowing exhausted parents to rest. For older children, overnight nannies provide security and care when parents are travelling. Some overnight nannies also specialise in sleep training support.

After having twins, we were completely overwhelmed. Our overnight nanny from Nannvo was incredible — calm, experienced with newborns, and so reassuring. We finally got some sleep and could face the days properly. Worth every penny.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Have a question not listed here? Contact our team — we're happy to help.

Overnight nanny rates in the UK typically range from £150 to £250 per night, depending on the hours covered, the experience of the nanny, and your location. For ongoing overnight arrangements (e.g. three nights per week), a weekly rate is usually negotiated. Nannvo can advise on typical rates in your area.
A night nanny is an overnight nanny who specialises in newborn care. They typically work from around 10pm to 7am, handling night feeds, nappy changes, and settling routines so parents can sleep. Night nannies are often experienced maternity nurses or nannies with significant newborn experience.
This varies widely. New parents often start with 2-5 nights per week for the first few months. Families using overnight nannies for travel cover may only need occasional nights. Nannvo can help you find a nanny whose availability matches your specific needs, whether regular or ad hoc.
Some overnight nannies are happy to provide daytime support as well, but this depends on their availability and your requirements. If you need combined day-night coverage, a live-in nanny arrangement might be more appropriate. Contact us and we'll advise on the best solution for your family.
