What you can expect:
Our goal is to provide you with a service that is specifically catered to meet the needs of your new family. We understand that each situation is unique and we strive to satisfy your individual needs. We aim to provide you with peace of mind allowing you the recuperative rest you require in order to heal, ease the transition of a new baby, and allow you to a better, well rested parent.
Our ultimate goal is to encourage your baby to learn to sleep through the night by increasing the duration between nightly feedings.
We will work with you throughout our duration with you to teach you our techniques so that you may carry them over.
In addition to sleep training, Blue Moon Nannies will:
- Feed babies or bring to mom to breast feed
- Change diapers
- Swaddle babies
- Sterilize bottles and pumping equipment as needed
- Empty diaper bins
- Run and fold baby laundry
- Prepare formula for the day if required
- Organize and restock the nursery
- Run and unload the dishwasher
Don't be alarmed if you find a Blue Moon Nanny resting . We have a "mother's ear" and permit our nannies to cat-nap while the babies are sleeping.
Additional Services:
Lactation Counseling
We are pleased to offer lactation counseling in conjunction with our overnight services. If you are a breastfeeding new mom in need of some advice and assistance, we've got you covered. Our certified lactation counselors (CLC) are here to help you through. Lactation counseling is included for all of your overnight services. We also offer one time services or continued scheduled services during the day time hours for families who do not require overnight assistance and are in need of professional breastfeeding advice. Please contact us for rates and to schedule your 1 hour CLC home visit(s).
Home Stays
We understand that situations arise whereby you are required to be away from home and taking the babies with you may not be ideal or feasible. Home stays include care of your babies, pets and home 24 hours/day for as long as you require. You can rest assured that your home and family are cared for by insured professionals, giving you peace of mind when taking the babies with you is not an option.

Midwifery
is an age-old tradition of women caring for each other as they become
mothers. The midwifery model of care considers birth and pregnancy to
be natural
occurrences, best supported by a knowledgeable and experienced woman
with faith in the process. Since ancient times, midwives have
been responsible for safely and compassionately seeing other women
through childbirth. Along with this age-old wisdom, modern
midwives are trained in medical skills and technologies. They
blend traditional trust with modern knowledge, and are able to offer
comprehensive maternity care. They provide holistic care that
minimizes intervention. Midwives are the experts in normal pregnancy
and birth, and they are known for their patience and compassion. Meet our favorite Midwife at Mother Root Midwifery.
Service Area
We cover the Boston area, Middlesex, and Central Massachusetts.
