baby wrangler

On-set infant supervisor

A baby wrangler is someone who manages infants on film or television sets, ensuring the child's safety, keeping them calm between takes, and coordinating with parents and crew.

The term borrows from wrangler's sense of managing animals, applied humorously to the unpredictable nature of working with babies: We need the baby wrangler—she's fussing again.
