In short
The short answer
Hire a postnatal nurse or midwife when mother or baby needs clinical observations, wound checks or professional feeding support. A newborn nanny provides childcare and routine support; professional Omugwo is a broader paid mother-and-baby arrangement that may combine care, night support, meals and household help.
How to decide
- Separate clinical mother-and-baby needs from childcare and household support.
- Decide whether overnight support is required.
- Record feeding, sleep, safeguarding and authorised-contact arrangements.

Step by step
How this works
1Postnatal care and Omugwo
The assessment separates clinical mother-and-baby care from broader Omugwo, night, meal and household support.
2Childcare and safeguarding
Childcare duties, specialist support, safeguarding and authorised collection arrangements are agreed in writing before support begins.
3The home assessment
An assessor reviews the person’s needs, home, routines and risks, then confirms the care plan, professionals and hours required.
4How pricing works
The assessment is fixed-price; defined services use published prices, live-in care has a from price, and other ongoing and package care is quoted after assessment.
