Work EnvironmentHospitals, clinics, breastfeeding support centersDaycare centers, preschools, childcare facilities
Employer & IndustryHealthcare, maternal health servicesChildcare, education services
Search & Comparison IntentFocus on infant feeding support rolesBroader childcare responsibilities

Child Care Assistants have a broader role in supervising and caring for children in daycare or preschool environments. While both roles require CPR and First Aid certifications, their work environments and specific responsibilities differ significantly.

What are some common challenges infant feeding assistants face when supporting new parents, and how can they be addressed?

Infant Feeding Assistants often encounter challenges such as helping parents manage feeding difficulties, addressing concerns about milk supply, and navigating cultural or personal feeding preferences. These challenges can be addressed by maintaining open communication, providing evidence-based guidance, and working closely with lactation consultants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals. Building trust and offering empathetic support are key to empowering parents and ensuring successful infant feeding experiences.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an infant feeding assistant, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Infant Feeding Assistant, you generally need knowledge of infant nutrition, safe feeding practices, and a relevant health or child care qualification such as a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. Familiarity with sterilization equipment, bottle preparation techniques, and food safety protocols is commonly required. Compassion, patience, and strong communication skills help build trust with parents and ensure effective support for infants. These abilities are vital for promoting infant health, meeting regulatory standards, and providing reassurance to families.

What is an infant feeding assistant?

They do not replace lactation consultants or nurses but work alongside them to enhance infant feeding experiences.

Job description

Postpartum Nurse

Our Couplet Care team provides comprehensive, family-centered care to postpartum patients and their newborns beginning after immediate recovery, when both are stable and ready for transition to the postpartum setting. We focus on supporting recovery, bonding, and education during the remainder of the hospital stay while preparing families for a safe discharge home.

Location: East Cooper Medical Center

Shift: 7pm-7am, weekend and holiday rotation required. Minimum commitment of 6 shifts/6 weeks.

Call: 1 call shift per schedule

Status: PRN

In this role, you will:

  • Assume care of stable postpartum patients and newborns following recovery, typically beginning around 2 hours of life
  • Perform ongoing maternal and newborn assessments, monitoring for changes and responding appropriately
  • Support infant feeding, including breastfeeding and formula feeding, in collaboration with lactation consultants
  • Provide education on newborn care, maternal recovery, safe sleep, and discharge readiness
  • Promote bonding and family-centered care while supporting emotional and physical recovery
  • Collaborate with OB, pediatric, and interdisciplinary teams to ensure coordinated, high-quality care

We are a team that values strong clinical judgment, clear communication, and compassionate care, helping families build confidence as they transition into life at home.

What You'll Do:

  • Check maternal vital signs, fundal tone, and lochia flow
  • Inspect surgical incisions like C-section scars or perineal repair sites
  • Administer postpartum medications, pain relief, and immunizations
  • Screen for postpartum depression and provide emotional support
  • Teach self-care, hygiene, and signs of dangerous bleeding or infection
  • Measure newborn vital signs, weight, and blood glucose levels
  • Perform complete physical assessments and check for jaundice
  • Administer newborn injections, eye ointments, and routine screening tests
  • Assist with infant bathing, diaper changing, and soothing techniques
  • Teach safe sleep practices and monitor infant feeding output

What We're Looking For:

  • Education: 4 Year / Bachelors Degree, preferred. Graduate of an accredited school of nursing required. If your RN nursing license has been inactive, retired or lapsed for five years or more and you have not been licensed in another state during the last five years, successful completion of a Board approved refresher course is required prior to reactivating or reinstating your license. In order to be considered for current licensure status, you must apply for reinstatement within one year of completing the refresher course.
  • Experience: One year relevant experience, preferred.
  • Licensure/Certification: Current RN licensure in appropriate state, required.

Why Choose Novant Health?

At Novant Health, we believe remarkable care starts with compassion for our patients, our communities, and each other. We value belonging, courage, personal growth, and teamwork, creating a space where everyone is respected, supported, and safe to show up as their full selves.
