Newborn Care Packages.

Transparent pricing. RN-led care. Three packages plus Bespoke for families who need something different.

Every Nurture Haven package is built around three principles: protected sleep for parents, evidence-based care for newborns, and matching the right caregiver to your specific family. Our packages range from a focused 4-week recovery window to a 12-week deep-support engagement — and for families navigating twins, NICU graduations, or specialty needs, our Bespoke option is built to order. All packages include matching with an NHNC™-certified, W-2 caregiver, full agency oversight, written feed/diaper/sleep logs each morning, and direct access to our RN founder.

Pricing Structure

How our pricing works.

Our rates are transparent and built on three simple variables: regional base rates, shifts per week, and duration.

1. Regional base rate per night

Region Base $/night
MetroWest $620
Central Massachusetts $560
Western Massachusetts $500

*These rates reflect local caregiver wages, drive times, and cost-of-care realities — not Boston-by-extension premiums.

2. Nights per week

Nights/week Premium
5 nights Base rate
4 nights +5% per night
3 nights (minimum) +12% per night
6 nights (Bespoke only) +5% per night
7 nights (Bespoke only) +10% per night

*The premium for fewer nights covers the higher cost of fitting a caregiver's schedule to a part-week engagement.

3. Package duration

Standard packages run 4, 8, or 12 weeks. Bespoke is custom-designed.

Minimum engagement: 2 weeks at 3 nights per week. Settling In (4 weeks) is our shortest package; engagements between 2 and 4 weeks are custom-quoted using the same regional base rates. We don't take overnight bookings shorter than 2 weeks or less frequent than 3 nights per week.

Operational minimum: 2 weeks at 3 nights/week. Below this floor, we refer out — overnight care under this threshold isn't viable for caregiver scheduling or cumulative sleep recovery.

Our Process

From inquiry to first night.

1

Free 15-Minute Consultation

We'll talk through your due date, your recovery plan, and the package that fits. No commitment. No scripted upsell.

2

Written Proposal

Within 48 hours, we send a complete proposal: package, schedule, regional pricing, and the contract details for review.

3

$150 Matching Fee

A non-refundable matching fee secures our caregiver-matching process. We present 2-3 caregiver candidates from our W-2 team for your review.

4

25% Deposit

A 25% deposit on the engagement total secures your due-date window (typically 4-8 weeks before your estimated start date).

5

Caregiver Meet

You meet your matched caregiver — in person or by video — before service begins. You have full veto power. We'll match again if the fit isn't right.

6

Weekly Billing During Service

The remaining balance is billed weekly during the engagement via Stripe. No surprise charges, no end-of-engagement balloon payments.

Cancellation Policy

We know babies arrive on their own schedule. Our policy is built around that reality:

Notice before scheduled start Refund of paid deposit/fees
60+ days 100% refund (less $150 matching fee)
30-59 days 50% refund
14-29 days 25% refund
Less than 14 days 0% refund

Note on adjustments: Once service has begun, weekly billing stops with 2 weeks' written notice. Unused weeks are not refunded retroactively.

For early arrivals, NICU stays, or complications: contact us directly. We handle these case by case and have never charged a family for circumstances outside their control.

The Nurture Haven Standard

What makes Nurture Haven different.

RN-led, not RN-delivered.

Our founder is a Registered Nurse and NAPS-certified Night Doula. Her RN credential shapes our caregiver training curriculum, safety standards, and screening process. Every caregiver is NHNC™-certified (Nurture Haven Newborn Care — our in-house 14-module program covering safe sleep, infant CPR, feeding support, swaddling, soothing, and parent handoff) and W-2 employed. Tier 2 caregivers additionally hold a NAPS Night Doula Certificate. We do not provide clinical nursing in client homes — caregivers operate as overnight doulas under RN-designed safety protocols, not as bedside nurses delivering clinical care.

W-2 employees (not 1099)

Every caregiver is an employee of our agency. We handle workers' compensation, payroll taxes, liability, and insurance. This is not the cheapest model — it is the right one for families.

Transparent pricing

All packages and regional pricing rates are published publicly on this page. No query screens, no mystery quotes, no surprises.

Regional, not Boston-only

Based in Hopkinton, serving MetroWest, Central, and Western MA as primary areas. Western MA families do not pay travel premiums, and Central MA families do not get bumped for Boston bookings.

90-day satisfaction commitment

If within the first 90 days of an engagement the caregiver match isn't working, we re-match your family to a new caregiver at no additional fee.

Common Questions

Package & booking inquiries.

Can I do fewer than 3 nights per week?

Not as an overnight package engagement. Our overnight minimum is 2 weeks at 3 nights per week ($3,360 Western / $3,763 Central / $4,166 MetroWest) — that's where cumulative protected sleep starts to support parent recovery. For event-based childcare, see HavenEvents™. For overnight needs below this floor, contact us directly — we'll refer you to a trusted overnight doula colleague.

What's the shortest package you offer?

Our published packages start at 4 weeks (Settling In). The true operational minimum is 2 weeks at 3 nights/week — available as a custom short engagement at $3,360 Western / $3,763 Central / $4,166 MetroWest (region × 3 nights × 2 weeks × 1.12 short-engagement premium). Below this, we refer to a trusted overnight doula colleague. We don't take overnight bookings shorter than 2 weeks or less frequent than 3 nights/week.

What if my baby arrives early or late?

Our engagements include a 2-3 week flex window around your estimated due date at no additional cost. If delivery falls outside that window, we work with you on adjusted start dates — which is why we recommend booking 4-6 months in advance.

What if I need to extend my package?

Extensions are usually possible if your primary caregiver has availability. We bill extensions at the same regional rate, weekly, with 2 weeks' notice required to add additional weeks.

Do you offer payment plans?

Standard payment is the $150 matching fee, 25% deposit, and then weekly billing during service. We do not offer multi-month installment plans, but weekly billing spreads the remaining 75% balance across the duration of your care.

What if my caregiver gets sick?

Every engagement includes agency backup coverage. If your primary caregiver is unavailable, we coordinate a secondary caregiver from our W-2 team — typically with 24 hours' notice when possible, same-night when not.

Every engagement includes agency backup coverage. If your primary caregiver is unavailable due to illness or an emergency, we coordinate a backup caregiver from our W-2 team — typically with 24 hours' notice when possible, same-night when not.

Will I have one caregiver or a team?

It depends on your schedule. For a 3 nights/week schedule, you will have a single named caregiver with backup coverage on standby. For schedules of 4 or more nights/week, we establish a built-in two-caregiver rotation by design. This rotation is a premium design feature: it protects our caregivers against burnout, ensures they are fully rested and alert for every shift, and keeps your care highly consistent and reliable without depending on a single person.

Are package sponsorships available?

Yes. See our dedicated Sponsor a Package page — useful for baby showers, grandparent gifts, or corporate sponsorships.

Can corporate benefits be used for these packages?

Possibly. Some employers offer concierge or family benefits programs that can be applied. Contact us with your benefit details and we will let you know what's eligible.

What if I'm past 32 weeks pregnant and just starting to plan?

Don't panic. While most families book 4-6 months ahead, we keep a small portion of our capacity available for short-notice bookings. Reach out — we'll be honest about availability for your due-date window.

Do you serve outside MetroWest, Central, and Western MA?

We serve our three primary regions consistently. For families just outside (Boston-proper, North Shore, South Shore, Cape Cod), we may be able to help on a Bespoke basis with a travel adjustment. Ask us directly.

What's your relationship with corporate backup care benefits like Bright Horizons?

Our founder has direct experience as a Bright Horizons vendor. Our overnight newborn care is planned and package-based. Backup care, including through Bright Horizons, is available only when caregivers are available. Same-day and last-minute requests are accepted when a vetted caregiver is available, but are never guaranteed.
