Baby Nail Cutting

Using a baby Nail cutter, I accidentally cut my Baby's left hand last smallest index finger nail too deep and it cause a minor cut, and baby had say 5 to 10++ drops of minor bleeding. After cleaning the wound with tissue & Applied Aloe Vera Gel, bleeding has stop & Baby seems okay now, just that the wound feels delicate at times. Just wondering if the wound will heal say within 7 to 10 days? Is there anything I need to take note of? Feel heart pain & upset now, just reprimanded by my wife & in law even though I am not deliberate. Also wanted to ask when is a good age to help trim Baby's nails? 1 year old or older? Would trimming it when baby is asleep a better idea?

Cut when baby is sleeping and don't cut at night. Vision is blur at night very dangerous. At night cut old maid tale say baby with have nightmare.. and also their vein is tiny, a small cut to them will have big impact.
