    In short

    What a night arrangement covers

    A night arrangement covers the hours when families struggle most: overnight observation, feeds, settling and a written handover each morning, so parents can rest. The assessment decides whether you need a postnatal nurse, a newborn care professional or both. For daytime and general newborn help, see newborn care at home.


    Who this is for

    • New parents needing overnight support
    • Mothers recovering after birth
    • Families establishing feeding routines
    • Newborns needing professional observation

    One-off, before care starts

    The home assessment

    ₦35,000

    A care coordinator visits once, before any care begins, to understand the needs and the home and agree the care plan with you. It is separate from the price of the care itself.


    Step by step

    How this works

    1. 1Postnatal care and Omugwo

      The assessment separates clinical mother-and-baby care from broader Omugwo, night, meal and household support.

    2. 2The home assessment

      An assessor reviews the person’s needs, home, routines and risks, then confirms the care plan, professionals and hours required.

    3. 3What is recorded during care

      Managed care is recorded against the care plan and reviewed when needs, risks or circumstances change.

    4. 4Shifts, handover and supervision

      A rostered team covers the agreed hours, records each shift and gives a structured handover to the next professional.
