Baby Nurse or Mother's Helper?

Which would you rather have - a baby nurse at night or a mother's helper during the day?

eta: I will have a 2yo and a newborn.

Mother's helper. They can entertain the 2 yo and you can chill out with the newborn. The baby nurse won't help you during the day with the older kid.

Mother's helper.

It was really nice to let her take the newborn for a few hours while I had alone time with DS.

It made the adjustment much, much easier and I definitely think it is part of the reason we had very little jealousy issues with DS and DD.

She also entertained/occupied DS while I was nursing/pumping.
