Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"Auntie Liu worked at my home for more than a month and is the most meticulous maternity nanny I have ever met. We interviewed several candidates at first and ultimately chose her because her answers were especially specific and never vague. Over these more than forty days, she completely confirmed my first impression. Let’s start with meals. During my postpartum recovery, I had little appetite, but Auntie Liu never cut corners. Every meal started with three dishes and a soup, with attention to both nutrition and color. For the roujiamo she made, she baked the bread herself. When cut open, it was filled to the brim with diced meat, chopped red and green peppers, and cilantro. The red and green colors alone made it appetizing. The peanuts were served separately in a small dish with star anise and fried crisp, with the heat controlled perfectly—not one was burnt. The greens were drizzled with sauce, the cold dish was sliced into fine shreds, and everything was plated neatly and cleanly. What impressed me even more was her attention to detail. Grilled fish fillets came with lemon slices to remove any fishy smell, and a whole fish was topped with fine red and white shreds for color; the okra was cut into uniform lengths and arranged neatly in sauce; the pumpkin pieces were evenly sized and stewed until soft and glutinous without falling apart. Her stir-fried broccoli stayed bright green, the tomato-and-egg dish had a rich red sauce that was perfect with rice, and the vegetables and scallion sections in the noodles were cut to even thicknesses. Even for an ordinary soup, she would add Chinese cabbage, winter melon, and meatballs, then finish it with a few goji berries and chopped scallions. When she served it, she even set out the soup spoon. None of these were elaborate dishes, but every detail showed the care she put in. There is another habit of hers that I especially appreciate: after cooking, she always cleans the kitchen thoroughly, wiping down the stove, sink, and floor and putting all the pots, bowls, and utensils back in place. After we finish eating, she quietly clears the table again. Now my kitchen is cleaner than it was before she came. She was equally meticulous with the baby. She kept a small notebook and recorded feeding times, milk amounts, number of bowel movements and urinations, and sleep duration every day, all very clearly, so I could understand it whenever I looked through it. When changing diapers, bathing the baby, and doing baby massage, she was gentle but efficient. She never missed twice-daily umbilical-cord care. If the baby showed even a slight abnormality, she told us immediately and never made decisions on her own. Whenever I got up at night, she could always hear me and would come over right away to help. Auntie Liu is not very talkative, but she always notices what needs to be done. She washed and hung up changed clothes the same day, aired out and organized the room daily, never played on her phone, and never asked about our private family matters. She had an excellent sense of boundaries. Honestly, when hiring a maternity nanny, the biggest fear is someone who looks busy but is not actually doing what matters. Auntie Liu is exactly the opposite. You can see the results of everything she does, and she is always a little more thorough than you expect. I recovered very well this past month, and the baby has grown strong too. We truly could not have done without her care. I strongly recommend her to families who need help."

"We highly recommend Shaoli! She is an experienced, caring, and reliable nanny who truly loves children. She is patient, attentive, and very knowledgeable about infant care and child development. Our baby was always happy and well cared for in her hands. She made our lives so much easier and gave us complete peace of mind. Any family would be lucky to have her!"

"I wholeheartedly recommend Auntie Xiang! ❤️ The maternity nanny we had originally booked cancelled on us at the last minute. Our baby had just been born, and as first-time parents we were truly very anxious. We were so fortunate to meet Auntie Xiang at short notice; she happened to have an opening and was able to come help. Looking back now, we really feel incredibly lucky! Auntie Xiang is very loving and patient with the baby. She is especially attentive in her daily care—she gently talks and sings to the baby and soothes the baby to sleep. She also places great importance on cleanliness and hygiene. We feel completely at ease leaving our baby with her. In addition to caring for the baby, Auntie Xiang took very thoughtful care of me as well. Right after giving birth, I was not very mobile, and she helped wipe me down, helped stimulate milk production and relieve blocked milk ducts, and helped me through the most hectic period after delivery. One thing I especially want to praise about Auntie Xiang is that she is truly proactive, works efficiently, and gets things done quickly! We never had to worry or remind her. When the baby was asleep, she would make the most of the time to cook, prepare ingredients, clean, and organize, keeping all the big and small household matters in perfect order. It felt like she made especially good use of every day, taking wonderful care of the baby while also making sure we ate well and rested well. For us as first-time parents, Auntie Xiang not only greatly reduced our burden, but also gave us a strong sense of security when we needed help most. With her here, we could finally rest with peace of mind instead of worrying about the baby every moment. We are truly reluctant to see her leave when her assignment ends. We are so glad we met her by chance in the first place. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family in need!"
