Pictured is Candice Kinsela – The Village Night Nurse.
The Village Night Nurse, a unique in-home overnight infant care service supporting families throughout the Parkes and Forbes region and surrounding communities.
Candice Kinsela, Founder of The Village Night Nurse said “Essentially, I come into a family’s home overnight and take care of their little one, allowing parents to get some much-needed uninterrupted rest. This might mean settling and resettling the baby, nappy changes, bottle feeding, supporting breastfeeding mums, preparing bottles, washing and sterilising feeding equipment and generally taking care of the baby’s overnight needs.”
It’s about much more than simply looking after a baby for a few hours. Candice wants parents to wake up feeling like they’ve had a chance to recharge, rather than feeling as though they’ve spent another night running on empty.
Based in the Parkes and Forbes area, servicing families within approximately an hour’s drive of home, including surrounding regional communities. Candice is also happy to consider locations a little further afield on a case-by-case basis.
Offering both one-off overnight bookings and ongoing support packages, depending on what works best for each family.
Candice said “I’m currently taking enquiries and bookings, with availability across the coming months including some weekends. I understand that babies don’t necessarily arrive or settle into a routine according to a schedule, so I try to be as flexible as possible.”
Candice is a Registered Nurse with 20 years of nursing experience, along with the experience of being a mum herself.
