I wonder how many 'moms' would rather sleep when a small child has a fever severe enough to require a bath...

Any mother who knows that her husband is as capable as she is of giving the child the care it needs, and realizes that in order to meet the continuing needs of that child, she has to take care of herself, which means getting some sleep.

All sensible parents take shifts when caring for a sick child. It's the only way to do it, for practical reasons which non-parents may have a hard time understanding.

I realize that this may be difficult for you to accept, but families exist where the father provides the majority of the childcare, and does a better job of it than the mother. The nurturing instinct is by no means exclusive to the female gender.
