Boboto Care is a growing Ontario-based perinatal care collective providing exceptional overnight newborn care, postpartum support, night nanny services and newborn education to families across Toronto, Vaughan, York Region and the Greater Toronto Area.

We have built a close-knit collective of nurses, doulas, newborn care specialists and experienced infant-care professionals who genuinely enjoy working together.

If you love newborn care but want the flexibility to choose work that fits around your career, studies, family or existing clients, Boboto Care may be a great fit.

Why Practitioners Join Boboto Care

Flexible overnight hours

Choose availability that works for you. Most shifts are 8–10 hours and commonly run 10 PM–6 AM or 8 PM–6 AM. Practitioners can take recurring clients or select opportunities that fit their schedules.

Highly competitive GTA compensation

We believe experienced newborn professionals should be compensated accordingly. Our rates are designed to attract highly skilled practitioners and reflect the level of care our families expect.

Recurring client opportunities

Many families book several nights per week for multiple weeks or months, giving practitioners the opportunity to build consistent schedules.

Thoughtfully vetted families

Safety goes both ways. Boboto Care screens and communicates with families before placements and maintains clear service agreements, expectations and support systems to help protect our practitioners.

Thoughtful matching

We consider your experience, personality, availability, preferred travel area and comfort level when introducing you to families.

A genuinely close-knit team

You are joining a collective, not simply being sent a client address. Our practitioners have access to mentorship, qualified support and a community of experienced newborn and postpartum professionals.

Wonderful families

We are intentional about the clients we work with and aim to create respectful, professional relationships where practitioners feel valued for their expertise.

Professional growth

Build additional newborn and postpartum experience while learning alongside doulas, nurses, lactation professionals, newborn care specialists and other perinatal professionals.
