FAQ

  • A Newborn Care Specialist (NBCS) and a baby nurse, while both offering essential assistance to expectant parents, differ in terms of their backgrounds and training. An NBCS is a highly trained expert with specialized knowledge in newborn care, having undergone training in areas such as infant development, feeding routines, sleep patterns, and soothing techniques. This equips them to address common concerns and guide parents comprehensively. Their expertise ensures a nurturing environment for both the baby and parents during the early stages of parenthood. Conversely, a baby nurse is an experienced nanny with practical familiarity in newborn care, gained through hands-on experience. While lacking formal training, baby nurses excel in tasks like feeding, diaper changing, and soothing techniques. They work closely with families in the initial weeks or months post-birth, delivering crucial care and support. Both NBCS professionals and baby nurses play pivotal roles in aiding expectant parents during the baby's early life, with NBCS offering specialized knowledge and baby nurses providing experienced care.
