Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"We sincerely recommend our postpartum nanny, Auntie Wan! She is a senior infant care specialist formally trained by a professional agency, and her professionalism is truly beyond question. • Lifesaver for breastfeeding: Our baby was born on 3/25. I had originally been determined to breastfeed, but because my own situation made it more difficult, 4–5 nurses and lactation consultants at the hospital tried to help, and after all that, the baby still couldn’t latch onto the nipple. Then on the very day we were discharged and got home, Auntie Wan arrived, finished her personal hygiene routine, and immediately took over. In just a few minutes, she got the baby to successfully drink breast milk! Now the baby is 20 days old and already works super well with mom, and can latch smoothly without Auntie’s help. I’m truly so grateful. • Childcare expert: Auntie is extremely professional in caring for the baby. Every day she washes the baby’s face, cleans the baby’s bottom, does baby exercises, gas-relief exercises, shows black-and-white cards, and does hearing training. She is also very skilled in caring for jaundice, burping, and gas. Under her care, the baby has never had diaper rash or any body rashes, and is smiling happily every day. • God-tier cooking: Auntie’s cooking is basically restaurant quality! I normally don’t eat breakfast, but every day she came up with different dishes (braised lion’s head meatballs, roujiamo, egg pancakes), and even handmade pork floss bread and pumpkin bread were no challenge for her. Before she left, she thoughtfully made a big batch of dumplings, wontons, and scallion pancakes and stuffed the freezer full, worried that we’d be too busy taking care of the baby to have time to cook afterward. Auntie Wan helped our whole family get through a very pleasant and professional postpartum month, and we highly recommend her to expectant parents who are looking for a postpartum nanny!"

"Auntie Zhong has a background in early childhood education and is very capable of caring for children independently. In our home: From the time she started caring for our younger child, she systematically helped the baby establish a good routine, successfully weaned night feeds, and gradually built the ability to fall asleep independently and naturally. During this time, the baby made very noticeable progress in social skills, frustration tolerance, language expression, and other areas, which is inseparable from Auntie’s day-by-day thoughtful guidance. Outside of work, she has consistently continued taking childcare courses online. She is able to adjust her interaction methods in a timely way according to the child’s developmental characteristics at different stages. We really admire her professionalism and commitment to continuous learning. Every day she gave us detailed updates about the baby, and when issues came up, she proactively communicated with us and reached agreement before moving forward, which made us feel especially reassured. What moved us most was that she was very understanding of our difficulties. She also took the initiative to help coordinate care for our older child, not only helping us improve the older child’s behavior and habits, but also strengthening the bond between the siblings, who now get along harmoniously and lovingly. She helped relieve a great deal of pressure on our family. Auntie works efficiently, loves cleanliness, and is organized. She treated us like family. Now, because our child is going to school, we have no choice but to end our arrangement with her, and we feel extremely reluctant to part. Such a professional, responsible, and caring auntie truly deserves to be recommended to more families! Auntie Zhong will need to start a new job in May. 💙Expected compensation: 💜Commute: starting at $35/hour for 4 hours 💙Live-in: no co-sleeping or separate-room co-sleeping (when the time is right), daily rate $250–280/day, with 11 paid statutory holidays (double pay for overtime) 💜Qualifications for starting work: 1️⃣ Early education and Montessori early education certificate 2️⃣ Family education guidance certificate 3️⃣ Health manager certificate 4️⃣ Psychological counselor certificate Auntie lives in Silicon Valley 95129 WeChat: Z1072813600"

"This was our first time hiring Sister Hua to come to our home as a postpartum nanny, and both my spouse and I were very satisfied. We also feel very fortunate to have met such a professional and responsible ayi. Sister Hua was especially patient with our baby, careful and conscientious in everything she did, and very experienced in caring for children, which gave us great peace of mind. She is also very skilled at cooking—the food was delicious and nutritious, and the home-style dishes suited our taste very well. She was always very efficient in her work, hardworking and quick, never lazy, and she would proactively do whatever needed to be done when she saw it. She was also very willing to communicate and had a great personality, so it was very comfortable getting along with her, and we could promptly discuss anything that came up. When friends occasionally came over, she was also willing to help cook a big table of dishes, without finding it troublesome or being afraid of hard work. What moved us the most was that before she left, she even helped us do a thorough cleaning and cleaned the whole house inside and out until it was spotless. Up to now, both my spouse and I have been very happy and very satisfied. If we have a second child in the future, we will definitely hire her again."
