Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"I highly recommend my maternity nanny, Auntie Wang! She has an outgoing, humorous personality and is especially easy to get along with. On the day she arrived, she immediately got into the role: she organized everything in the kitchen, sorted the ingredients, and then began caring for the baby. Auntie Wang is healthy and has even more energy than us young people. Because she loves children and is very professional, I felt completely at ease leaving the baby with her—we did not have to worry about anything. Our baby was premature, so I was especially concerned about feeding. Auntie Wang paid close attention to the baby’s feeding, helped the baby catch up in weight, and provided careful care. Whenever the baby cried or stirred, she woke up right away to check on the baby. The baby’s diaper rash also recovered quickly under her attentive care. During the period of colic in February, she gave the baby foot baths and did gas-relief exercises, which helped a lot. Before she finished her assignment with us, we took the baby for a checkup, and the baby was growing very well in every respect and had caught up with full-term babies. At the same time, she also established great routines for the baby, and the baby did not have the problem of waking up as soon as they were put down. Because we trusted Auntie Wang to take good care of the baby, we adults were able to rest well at night and recover ourselves. Auntie Wang is also a professional chef. She can make buns, dumplings, cakes, bread, jianbing guozi, and youtiao by hand for us. Other dishes, such as big-plate chicken, braised beef ribs, and sweet-and-sour crispy pork, also come naturally to her. We never had to worry about what to eat; every day, rich and delicious dishes were served on the table. It truly made us feel so happy! Hiring Auntie Wang was absolutely the right choice. Before she left, she even made dumplings, buns, sesame flatbreads, youtiao, and all kinds of food for us to stock up on because she was worried we would not take good care of ourselves. When she left, our whole family was extremely reluctant to say goodbye—we really cried our eyes out! I hope we have a chance to see each other again in the future~! Take care of yourself, Auntie Wang! (If we have a second child, we will hire you again, haha.)"

"Sister Ying was responsible for caring for our baby boy born through surrogacy during his newborn confinement period. She was professional, attentive, and very caring. She was familiar with key newborn-care practices and scientifically cared for the baby’s feeding, burping, soothing to sleep, and umbilical-cord care. She closely monitored the baby’s jaundice, temperature, and bowel movements and promptly updated us on his condition. She was skilled at soothing newborn crying, helped the baby establish a regular routine, and also took time to teach us, as new parents, basic newborn-care techniques and how to understand the signals in the baby’s cries. We benefited greatly. She also kept the mother-and-baby environment clean and disinfected and carefully managed the baby’s clothing and supplies. She was organized, communicated promptly, respected our parenting preferences, and patiently explained newborn-care knowledge. She had a calm, gentle personality and was kind and patient with the baby. Under her attentive care, the baby developed steadily. She was highly responsible, professional, and reliable—a childcare helper we could truly feel at ease with. We sincerely recommend her."

"We really felt that we were meant to meet Auntie Du. At first, we got to know Auntie Du and really wanted to hire her, but our schedules did not line up, so we found another maternity nanny instead. Unexpectedly, the original maternity nanny had to leave early because something came up, and she happened to recommend Auntie Du to us. After all the twists and turns, Auntie Du ended up coming to our home. All I can say is that it truly felt like a special kind of fate. From the perspective of a new dad, I am extremely satisfied with Auntie Du. She is very efficient, organized, and good at planning. She arranges many things in advance, so we hardly have to worry about things at home. She is also professional and attentive in caring for the baby. She is experienced with feeding, sleep routines, and daily care, and we have always felt at ease leaving the baby with her. As a new dad, I think that besides whether the baby is well cared for, another especially important standard for evaluating a maternity nanny is whether the mother herself is happy and feels comfortable getting along with her. Auntie Du did especially well in this regard too. My wife was in a very good mood throughout her postpartum confinement period and was also very satisfied with Auntie Du. The two of them got along naturally and could communicate directly about anything. Seeing my wife able to rest peacefully and enjoy her meals, while the baby was also so well cared for, was, to me, the most important part of hiring a good maternity nanny. I also have to especially praise Auntie Du’s cooking—it was truly delicious, especially her various flour-based dishes. She made buns, dumplings, and noodles in different ways, with very little repetition from day to day. Before Auntie Du left, she was still thinking about how busy we would be caring for the baby on our own afterward, so she specifically made many dumplings and buns and put them in the freezer for us to eat gradually later. This small detail really made us feel especially touched and warm. After spending this time together, we feel that Auntie Du is not only professional, but also very thoughtful, sincere, and easy to get along with. If friends around me ask for a maternity nanny recommendation in the future, Auntie Du will be the first person I recommend. We are also very grateful to her for taking care of our baby, my wife, and our whole family during this time. We are truly happy to have met her."
