Obviously he doesn’t have a real job.
Good morning and good night is more than enough
Once per day is all I would tolerate.

If he has all that time to call every single hour then he can come get this child he needs to stop playing

As her parent, he has every right to call and speak to his child at any time, unless you have legal issues like an OP or something in a custody agreement.
Also, you don’t have to answer every call. You can call back later at a more convenient time for you and your child.
It’s called harassment!
I had this issue with my ex husband with our kids. He was showing off for the new girlfriend, he was involved, he called… 8 times a day. No. It got so bad I had to get a mediator from the court to put into motion a modification of our decree saying I would keep a phone or tablet available once a day for FaceTime or calling. It’s basically like our “home phone”. It stays plugged in and on the counter. He doesn’t have my phone number. If he needs me, or for custody exchange, he calls or leaves a voicemail/ text on the device that’s designated for him, and it’s still considered my “phone/ contact information” per the court. He doesn’t need my personal cell, people worked out custody drop off and related issues over a phone that wasn’t mobile for generations. Works for me and the 3 children we have. Good luck.
Charge him for your personal assistant skills.
I mean you could have the complete opposite and her dad be out of the picture. I promise you don’t want that.

Honestly yes it’s a bit much, talk with him and set up a 15 to 30mins (depending on her attention spawn) in the morning and and night that works with her sleep schedule and both yours and his life. As she gets a little older and has more of an attention span tell him they can video call and watch a cartoons together every day, or something. Heck tell him he can read her a bedtime story if he wants. I’d come at it gently though, while some people are saying it’s sounds like he’s trying to keep tabs or control you, which yeah that could be it, but it could also be he loves his kid and finds himself shut out of a lot of her life and experiences because of what happened between the two of you. If things had worked out beteen ya’ll he’d be there for all sorts of things and he may be one of the what seems like very few that realizes what he’s missing with his kid. I think if you set up a time for them to watch a short cartoon and then walked away, after a few times he’d drop it if it’s him trying to control you, no one not interested in their kid is going to continously watch sesame street or other child program when all their wanting is to fuck with your life, by setting up the call and walking away to even pretend clean, I’m not saying leave your kid alone with a cell phone lol that’s how crazy bills happen, but just show him your life doesn’t stop when he’s talking with the kid and you’ll quickly find out I think if he’s genuinely calling to bond with his kiddo.
