The Maternity Nurse
Karen Carter NNEB
What Can I Provide for You & Your Baby?
​
My practice is focused on professional, structured maternity nurse placements for newborns from birth, offering both live-in and long-term night support for families requiring a high level of expertise, discretion, and continuity of care.
I specialise in sole-charge newborn care within private households, working with families who value an experienced, qualified maternity nurse to guide them confidently through the early weeks and months.
Scope of Care
I provide dedicated overnight or live-in maternity nurse support, typically covering:
-
Newborn care from birth
-
Feeding guidance (breast, expressed, or formula)
-
Establishing gentle routines and sleep foundations
-
Monitoring wellbeing of both mother and baby
-
Professional guidance on early developmental needs
-
Full support within a private home environment
For night support, your baby may sleep in my room during working hours to ensure uninterrupted rest for parents, while maintaining attentive, responsive care throughout the night
​
Booking Structure
My services are not offered on an ad hoc or occasional basis.
I accept:
-
Live-in placements
-
Longer-term night bookings (minimum 8 weeks)
-
Structured contracts with a minimum of 3 nights per week
This ensures consistency of care, optimal outcomes for your baby, and a calm, well-supported environment for the family.
​
Professional Positioning
I work with families who require:
-
A highly experienced, qualified maternity nurse
-
Discretion and professionalism within private households
-
Continuity of care, rather than short-term or occasional support
-
A structured, expert-led approach to newborn care
