I know you haven't been through the first weeks of motherhood yet but who ever gave you the idea of having a night nurse is brilliant. I honestly do recommend though that after the first few weeks (3-4) you not bother with one. You will gain a lot more self confidence and ability by doing the nights yourself. Don't worry - we all get through it. I imagine you are working full time? You should try your OB's office. They probably have lots of names lined up! In my OB's office they always had pamphlets hanging in the washroom with names of doulas and nurses. Check when you're there next time. Also, I know it can be scary with how things will be with the first one so we get all geared up thinking the worst. Its our jobs as mothers...But be reassured that it will be okay and take it from me. I was a nervous wreck at the end of my pregnancy but once the baby is here you are a total natural. It really is amazing what we do. Good luck, hang in there, and share the great news when he or she is here - Congratulations!
