Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"Sister Zhang has an easygoing personality and is very patient when caring for the baby. She handled the baby’s daily basic care very well, including feeding, burping, diaper changes, soothing to sleep, bathing, and so on. She also shared some experience and advice on caring for newborns during the process. Whenever the baby needed anything, she always took care of it right away, letting me finish my meal or finish what I was doing first. She was very serious and responsible. By the baby’s one-month mark, the baby’s routine had become more regular, nighttime sleep had gradually lengthened, and weight had increased very rapidly. During the postpartum confinement period, having Sister Zhang help share the work of caring for the baby really made things much easier overall. She also did breast massage to help with milk flow and uterine massage, which were very helpful for postpartum recovery. For food, she mainly made home-style postpartum meals and adjusted them based on my physical condition, along with the daily postpartum herbal water. Overall, it suited our taste quite well. Communication was also fairly smooth throughout our time together. We could say things directly, and she was able to cooperate with and adjust to the needs we raised. Overall, she always put the baby and the mother first. She is a fairly serious, responsible, and professional top-rated maternity matron. I recommend Sister Zhang!!"

"Thank you to Sister Sun for taking such good care of our baby during the postpartum confinement period. She was extremely attentive. Whether it was feeding, burping, bathing, infant massage, or observing the baby’s condition, she handled everything very professionally, which gave us first-time parents much more peace of mind. She was equally meticulous in caring for the mom, reminding me to rest, paying attention to my emotions, and helping relieve various postpartum discomforts so I could recover with peace of mind. Sister Sun is serious and responsible in her work, hardworking and detail-oriented. She kept the room and the baby’s supplies neatly organized, and we also felt very reassured about hygiene. What satisfied our whole family the most was that Sister Sun is an especially good cook. She can make both southern and northern Chinese dishes, with lots of variety. The buns and dumplings she made were especially delicious, and her home-style dishes were also very good. I’m from northern China, and I especially loved the sizzling fish head casserole, shredded chicken salad, and garlic vermicelli shrimp she made. We all loved them, and every day the thing we looked forward to most was mealtime. Sister Sun has a gentle personality and is also very sincere. She is easy and comfortable to communicate with. When she had free time, we would chat about all kinds of things, and the day would pass happily. She helped us get through a relaxed, reassuring, and pleasant confinement month. She helped us go from feeling completely at a loss in the beginning to now being able to care for our baby calmly and confidently. We are truly especially grateful for the help and companionship Sister Sun gave us. We feel very lucky to have met such a responsible, professional maternity nanny who is also such a great cook."

"When I was pregnant, I had booked a Taiwanese postpartum nanny (yuesao) well in advance. But just before I was due to give birth, she suddenly canceled on me… I was honestly panicking. By pure luck, I found an amazing postpartum nanny who was available to come to Mississauga. Looking back now, all I can say is: I’m so grateful for the choice I made! I was able to rest properly and only focus on breastfeeding during the day and pumping at night. When my milk supply was low, she even helped me increase it. By the time she left, I had nearly half a freezer full of stored breast milk. She took exceptional care of my baby. If any baby clothes touched the floor, she washed them immediately. Bottles and nipples were sterilized countless times every day. She handled everything professionally, from jaundice sun exposure to spit-up issues. At night, she helped with the baby’s sleep training. In less than two months, she established a great routine for my baby, and my little one was able to sleep independently in the crib. When my baby experienced gas and fussiness around two months old, she would soak the baby’s feet and apply warm compresses to the tummy every day. It really worked—my baby settled down within just a day or two. She was also an excellent cook. Her chicken breast, shrimp, and fish dishes were especially delicious—healthy, clean, and light without causing weight gain. She had a wonderful personality and was incredibly easy to get along with. She was never pushy, never nagged, and always respected my need for rest. Whenever friends or family came to visit, she would even prepare extra dishes for everyone. She made my postpartum month such a pleasant and stress-free experience. My recovery went very smoothly, and I didn’t suffer from any lingering postpartum issues. When she left, I actually experienced a bit of withdrawal. Suddenly there was no one helping to care for me and my baby, and I found it so hard to adjust. 😭 Even now, she still checks in on us regularly and asks how the baby is doing. 👶🏻💕"
