Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"I am very grateful to Sister Hui for her attentive care during my postpartum recovery! She is gentle, kind, friendly, and patient. Her professional skills are very solid, and she took excellent care of the baby, observing carefully and following proper care procedures, helping the baby grow healthy and chubby. She put a great deal of thought into the postpartum meals: the flavors suited my taste, the dishes were varied and never repeated from day to day, and the nutrition was well balanced. She was especially patient and professional in caring for the baby. At the same time, she always cared about my physical condition and emotions, helped me work through my postpartum feelings, and carefully supported my postpartum recovery. She helped relieve blocked milk ducts and provided postpartum recovery care. She got along very comfortably with me and my family. She is a rare and wonderful maternity nurse, and I highly recommend her!"

"We live in a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, and after our baby was born, we hired Auntie Zou to live with us and provide care. Overall, we were very satisfied. The biggest impressions were that she is independent, proactive, and easy to rely on, and she is quite experienced with newborns. - Learns quickly and works independently. She got up to speed very quickly and had her own rhythm for childcare, cooking, and daily tidying, without needing us to assign tasks every day. This saved us a lot of energy and gave us time to handle our own matters during the postpartum period. - Attentive with the baby. She was conscientious about daily care and would arrange simple interactions and activities based on the baby’s condition, such as sun exposure, tummy time, and gas-relief exercises. She also often talked to the baby, used black-and-white cards, and sang children’s songs to interact. - Cooking was a clear bonus. Auntie is quite good at home-style dishes that were light and tasty and suited our family’s preferences. She would plan meals and shopping herself (and is very familiar with Costco ingredients), so we did not have to worry much about that. - Highly proactive. Besides caring for the baby and cooking, she would also tidy and clean when she had free time, and many things did not need to be specifically requested. - Communication was smooth. There were occasional differences between some of her childcare habits and our preferences, but after we clearly stated our requests, she generally cooperated and adjusted. - She helps parents gradually learn to take over. She offered some advice on basic care such as feeding, holding the baby, and burping. As her service period was nearing its end, she also had us do more ourselves, making it easier for us to take over afterward. Overall, if you are looking for a postpartum nanny who can organize things independently, is experienced with newborns, cooks well, and makes daily life relatively worry-free, we would recommend Auntie Zou. Note: We do not have grandparents living with us, so daily communication and coordination were relatively simple. We do not have firsthand experience to evaluate this aspect for families where grandparents live together and multiple childcare opinions need to be coordinated."

"We feel incredibly lucky to have had Yanna help our family for two months after the birth of our first baby. She took such wonderful care of our baby, and I truly wish we could keep her with us longer. As a first-time mom, I had so much to learn, and Yanna was not only an amazing nanny but also an incredible teacher. She patiently taught me how to care for a newborn and shared so much helpful knowledge about what to expect and how to care for him as he grows over the coming months. Having her guidance made me feel much more confident as a new mom. She was also such an important part of my postpartum recovery. While I rested and recovered from childbirth, she helped take care of the household and prepared so many delicious and nourishing meals for me. Being able to focus on resting, recovering, and bonding with my baby made my recovery feel much easier and faster. Her meals also helped me maintain a strong milk supply while breastfeeding. Most importantly, our baby absolutely loves her and is so comfortable with her. She helped establish a wonderful feeding and sleeping routine for him, which has made such a difference for our family. Every day she spends time talking, playing, and interacting with him, helping him learn, develop, and become stronger. It is very clear that she genuinely cares about his well-being and development, rather than simply taking care of his basic needs. Yanna has been such an important part of these first two months of our baby’s life, and we are so grateful for everything she has done for our family. I would highly recommend her to any family, especially first-time parents. We are going to miss her so much and truly wish we could keep her longer!"
