overnight sitter
Sleepover child minder
An overnight sitter is someone hired to stay through the night caring for children, elderly people, or pets while the primary caregiver is away.
Unlike a daytime sitter who leaves after a few hours, an overnight sitter sleeps at the location: We hired an overnight sitter so we could attend the wedding out of state.
The term often implies care that extends beyond simple supervision—feeding, bedtime routines, or monitoring someone who shouldn't be left alone.
