Are you an experienced Registered Nurse who still loves caring for newborns but no longer wants the demands of full-time hospital bedside nursing?
Happy Baby Night Nurses is seeking experienced RNs throughout the St Johns/Jacksonville areas to provide private, non-medical overnight newborn care for families in their homes.
This is an excellent opportunity for experienced, semi-retired, former bedside, or PRN nurses who want to continue using their nursing background in a calm, meaningful environment without returning to a traditional hospital schedule.

About the Role
Happy Baby Night Nurses provides families with overnight newborn support exclusively from Registered Nurses.
You will work one-on-one with a newborn and family in their private home, helping parents rest and recover while providing attentive overnight newborn care.

- Light infant laundry when needed
- Maintaining an overnight newborn activity log

- Providing general newborn education and reassurance within the scope of our non-medical service
- Communicating important observations to parents
- Maintaining a calm, safe and professional environment throughout the night
