Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"Auntie Ying worked in my home for 40 days, and I feel especially lucky to have met such an amazing postpartum nanny. Auntie Ying knows a great deal of professional, science-based infant care knowledge. She is good at observing a baby’s condition and quickly determining and meeting the baby’s needs. At first, my baby lost too much birth weight, and the pediatrician was somewhat concerned. She was also a high-needs baby who could not be away from people and had some gas and bloating. Auntie held the baby day and night, burped her, did gas-relief exercises, fed probiotics, used all kinds of methods to soothe her to sleep, and adjusted the baby’s feeding and schedule. Under her attentive care, the baby grew very quickly and soon caught up with the growth curve. Auntie especially loves children. She often talked and interacted with the baby, and the baby also seemed amazingly able to understand what Auntie was saying and often responded. Whenever the baby cried, whether day or night, Auntie would appear by her side within three seconds. Auntie also gave me many very good suggestions for breastfeeding, helped me adjust the feeding pattern to meet the baby’s changing needs at each stage, and at the same time ensured that I could rest. Auntie is an excellent cook. Every day she made a variety of nutritious dishes, cooked postpartum drinks, and thanks to Auntie’s care, I recovered quickly after giving birth and my milk supply was also maintained. Auntie is especially hardworking. While caring for the baby, she also fit in all kinds of housework, cleaning the rooms, doing laundry and folding clothes, washing bottles and breast-pump parts, and after cleaning she would put everything back in place for me. Before leaving the job, Auntie also made an entire freezer drawer full of dumplings and cleaned the whole home thoroughly, so that our transition period could be a little easier. In addition, Auntie’s work attitude is very professional. In our daily communication, she focused on the baby and postpartum mother’s care, never asked about our personal matters, did not take photos of our home or baby, and kept detailed records of the baby’s eating, drinking, pooping, and sleeping, sending them to me regularly. I felt very comfortable getting along with Auntie and trusted her very much. When my friends and relatives came to see the baby and saw Auntie working in our home, they all praised her highly and asked me for her contact information. It was a rare stroke of fate to meet Auntie Ying the first time I hired a postpartum nanny. I am very grateful for her care of me and my baby. I highly recommend Auntie Ying to all the moms I know."

"As a 42-year-old single mother raising a baby on my own, I am very satisfied to have found such an ideal postpartum nanny. My baby was born three weeks early, so many things caught me completely off guard, and I was also very anxious at the same time. But after Miranda started working in my home, she not only handled all kinds of issues with the baby in an orderly way, but also carefully observed and recorded the baby's condition, including milk intake, sleep time, bowel movements and urination, mood changes, and so on, making the baby's growth status clear to me at a glance. These detailed records were truly precious for a new mother like me who did not have much parenting experience, and they also gave me more confidence to continue caring for the baby after she left. She was especially patient when the baby was fussy. Every time she fed the baby, burped the baby, bathed the baby, and soothed the baby to sleep, she was very gentle. She would also arrange to take the baby to nearby library baby activities. Under her care, my baby's routine became more and more regular, and the baby also developed a strong sense of security. All of this requires a very experienced postpartum nanny who truly loves her work. In addition to caring for the baby, she also patiently taught me a lot of parenting knowledge and shared her own experience with me without holding anything back. When I was anxious or overwhelmed, she always patiently taught me step by step, helping me slowly build confidence in caring for my baby from being a mother whose hands shook whenever I held the baby. For a single mother, Miranda was not only a postpartum nanny caring for the baby; she was also someone who provided support and proper guidance when the mother needed help the most."

"Auntie Ye really likes babies, and when she takes care of the baby you can see her love. Auntie is very experienced in every aspect. She is very detail oriented and she knows exactly what to do in different situations. Within the first 5 mins of her arrival, she knew right away that baby was not getting enough milk because she saw pink pee in his diaper, and she communicated her concerns right away and instructed us to call the doctor. When the baby had just come back from the hospital, he didn’t cry or fuss and we also didn’t know how to feed him milk. Fortunately, Auntie patiently fed him little by little, and his weight gradually recovered and his jaundice gradually came down. Auntie taught me how to pump milk and made me lactation-boosting soup to drink. In less than 10 days, the baby was drinking entirely breast milk. She also helped me create a feeding, pumping, and sleeping schedule that suited us. Auntie also taught us how to interact with the baby, showing him black-and-white cards, massaging him, singing to him, and doing tummy time. She also gave us a lot of tips on how to change diapers, when and how to apply diaper cream, how to wash his butt to avoid diaper rash, and how to shower. The food Auntie made was also especially delicious; every time my white husband wanted to lick the plate. I feel very lucky to have had Auntie Ye help me during my postpartum confinement period, taking very good care of the baby, me, and the dad. She chatted with me every day, and we will miss Auntie very much. I highly recommend Auntie Ye!"
