Welcome to The Maternity Group
We are a London-based maternity nursing agency dedicated to placing experienced, trusted professionals with families across the UK and internationally. Whether you’re looking for live-in, 24-hour support or a few days or nights of expert care each week, we take the stress out of finding the right maternity nurse or newborn care specialist for your family’s unique needs, lifestyle and preferences.
Every nurse we work with undergoes thorough background checks and personal interviews, allowing us to make confident, considered placements that feel like a perfect fit.

A maternity nurse is a highly experienced newborn care specialist who supports families during the precious but often overwhelming early days after birth. Whether you’re welcoming your first baby or adding to your growing family, a maternity nurse offers gentle, expert guidance—ensuring both baby and parents feel supported, rested, and confident.
Working on a live-in or daily/nightly basis, maternity nurses provide hands-on assistance with everything from feeding and sleep routines to postnatal recovery, bottle sterilisation, nappy changes, and soothing techniques. They’re not medical staff, but many have backgrounds in midwifery, paediatrics, or professional childcare, and bring years of experience in newborn care into your home.
At our agency, every maternity nurse we place is thoroughly vetted and chosen not just for their qualifications, but for their warmth, professionalism, and ability to blend seamlessly into your family life.
Whether you need 24-hour support or just a few nights a week, a maternity nurse helps you rest, bond with your baby, and start this new chapter with calm and confidence.
