Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"I highly recommend postpartum nanny Zhenzhen! Zhenzhen is truly exceptionally professional when caring for babies. She comes from a top-tier postpartum nanny background in China and later specialized in training postpartum nannies, so her professional skills are beyond question. Even more rare, she keeps her caregiving knowledge up to date and is able to integrate Chinese and international parenting approaches very well in practice—scientific yet practical and especially reliable. She has made us first-time parents feel very reassured. Our baby was initially very fussy at night, but now, as we are nearly at the end of the postpartum confinement period, the baby's routine has been adjusted very well! Her postpartum meals were another wonderful surprise! Postpartum meals are supposed to be light, but she can truly make so many different dishes. The nutrition is well balanced, and she adjusts the menu based on my recovery and taste preferences. I used to love spicy food and never imagined I would come to love postpartum meals—or even postpartum herbal water, haha. She also helped wash my hair and gave massages. During that emotionally up-and-down postpartum period, she steadily supported me; it was truly so comforting. What moved me most was that so many small details showed that she genuinely loves children, which was the most reassuring thing of all. When soothing the baby, she sings children’s songs and does finger-play gestures, and every so often she cannot help smiling at the baby—this kind of love cannot be hidden. We are truly so lucky to have had Zhenzhen for my postpartum confinement period!"

"I’m a mom who went to the U.S. to give birth. After returning home, I’d been busy moving and dealing with company matters for months, and only today found time to write Auntie Qian a positive review. My baby had gone through three postpartum nannies; the shortest one stayed only two days. It’s not that they were bad people, but they had that kind of perfunctory attitude where their bodies were present but their hearts were not: when the baby cried, they would pick the baby up, pat them a couple of times, and put them down; when the baby developed heat rash, they would say, “It’s fine, all babies get this”; after the baby pooped, they would not even wash the baby’s bottom, leaving it red. During those days, I was alone, holding my baby covered in red rash and crying until my voice was hoarse. I can’t describe how heartbroken I was 💔 I was so overwhelmed that I wanted to buy a plane ticket home immediately. (But the baby’s documents were not ready yet.) It wasn’t until Auntie Qian arrived that my tightly wound nerves finally relaxed! As soon as Auntie Qian came in and put down her suitcase, before even taking a sip of water, she immediately went to the bathroom, took a shower, changed into clean pajamas, and went to see the baby. She gently turned the baby over, unwrapped the swaddle, touched the baby’s back, and frowned: the baby was wearing too much, and the extra swaddling had caused heat rash. That was when I realized that the previous postpartum nannies had been afraid the baby would “catch a cold,” so even with the heat on indoors, they wrapped the baby in two layers of swaddles. Auntie Qian immediately adjusted the room temperature, reduced the baby’s clothing layers, and began her care routine... The red spots were fewer the next day, started fading on the third day, and by the fifth day, my baby’s skin finally felt smooth again. Watching the patches of heat rash gradually disappear made my eyes well up; my heart felt so warm. The baby’s bottom had been so red that some of the skin was broken, and I was terribly worried. But with Auntie Qian’s attentive care, the diaper rash was taken care of in less than two days. I am truly grateful to Auntie Qian! But what touched me most about Auntie Qian was not these skills—it was that she truly treated the baby like a precious little one. She sang nursery rhymes to the baby every day. While changing diapers, she would tell the baby, “You pooped. Let’s wash your little bottom and put on a clean diaper so you’ll feel comfortable,” and then recite three-character nursery rhymes. She also communicated with the baby while burping them. During everyday interactions, she would sing many English children’s songs to the baby, and even I thought the English songs sounded lovely. When my husband flew over from China and saw this, he was stunned and said, “How is this a postpartum nanny? She’s like the baby’s own grandmother.” She is very good at communicating with the baby. When changing clothes, she says, “Let’s lift your little hand now,” and during baths, “The water temperature is just right, don’t be afraid.” She was not talking to herself; she was truly communicating with the baby. Later I learned that this is early language development—this is how a baby’s sense of security and feel for language build up little by little. Auntie Qian never takes credit and never says, “See how great I am,” but I remember every change I saw in my baby. On the day she left, I walked her to the door. The baby was quietly resting in her arms, and tears fell from my eyes. She handed the baby back to me, patted me, and said, “You’ve done very well. All mothers go through this.” Also, Auntie Qian’s cooking is on the lighter side, and I really like it. If you are also looking for a postpartum nanny, I sincerely recommend Auntie Qian! Her attentiveness, patience, and sense of responsibility truly touched me. She not only helped my baby develop a nice round head while sleeping, but also raised my baby into a little angel who loves to babble and smile (by “loves to talk,” I mean baby babbling) ❤️"

"We were truly so lucky to meet such a wonderful postpartum nanny ❤️ I’m grateful that our first impression brought us together 🤗 She was patient and responsible with the baby. Whenever it was mealtime, Sister Zhang would always feed the baby and soothe the baby to sleep first; only after the baby was settled would she think about eating herself. In addition to caring for the baby, Sister Zhang took wonderful care of my husband and me. Not only did she prepare three meals and snacks every day (including snacks for my husband too—so touching!), but she also used her free time to make buns, pancakes, and steamed bread to freeze in advance, thinking that after she finished working with us, we could eat them anytime when we were too busy caring for the baby ourselves. She truly gave it her all 🥹 It was so heartwarming 🥰 This brought tremendous convenience to us, since we did not have parents here to help us! She also regularly cleaned, helped fold clothes, and was hardworking and attentive. Most precious of all, she treated my husband and me like her own children, always thinking of us in every way. She was sincerely caring for this family. She could have used the time when the baby was sleeping to relax more, take it easy, and rest, but as the baby’s one-month celebration approached, Sister Zhang instead hand-made all kinds of decorative steamed buns every night, giving the baby abundant blessings for the one-month celebration and, and a strong sense of ceremony from such a young age 🥳 Having Sister Zhang was truly reassuring and moving. She was not only professional and responsible, but also an especially caring person. We sincerely thank her for everything she did during this time and strongly recommend her to parents across the United States who need help ❤️"
