Making Caregiving
More Transparent

"We have three children at home and have hired quite a few postpartum nannies and childcare providers. May is absolutely the best! She is highly skilled professionally, works especially efficiently, notices what needs to be done, and seems to have endless energy. She is not the kind of postpartum nanny who only finishes her own assigned duties; she treated our whole family like her own. What left a deep impression on me was that I am very prone to clogged milk ducts. In the middle of the night, she ran up and down helping me with ice packs, massage, and milk expression. I felt it was too hard on her and told her to go rest, but she refused and handled everything herself. With my first two babies, I went to the hospital many times because of mastitis and suffered a lot, but this time, because of May, I got through it smoothly. Her cooking is chef-level, truly worthy of someone who used to run a restaurant. Besides home-style dishes, she can also make many pastries, desserts, and more. One time, when my second child had a birthday, she proactively offered to prepare food for 30 people. I was super touched! All our friends praised how delicious it was! After more than 40 days together, our whole family was very satisfied, and my body also recovered very well. If May’s later bookings had not been full, I really would have wanted to hire her for several more months. Being able to meet her was a very lucky thing! I sincerely thank May for taking care of the baby and our family, and I hope more families can also meet such a wonderful postpartum nanny ❤️ (Adding one more note: facts have proven that being quick and efficient is so important. Other postpartum nannies I hired would spend several hours in the kitchen just cooking a meal, and I had to watch the children, which made it hard for me to rest well. But May not only works efficiently, she also arranges everything especially properly, so all I needed to do was rest. This is so important for postpartum confinement!)"

"This is a nanny who ran off. I hired her mainly because she could cooperate with us when traveling abroad to take care of the children. I had her come to our home two months early specifically so she could become familiar with the children. The first two months were okay; she was very diligent, though I did notice some strange things about her. But at least she was doing the work, and she was only a short-term nanny, so I did not ask for too much. She also knew that her most important job was to be a travel nanny, a nanny who could accompany us when we returned to our home country and went on trips. But unexpectedly, after working here for two months, when we took her with us on an overseas trip, on the second night she told me that her husband had had a myocardial infarction and that she had to return home immediately 🙄🙄🙄🙄. I really cannot accept this kind of nanny who has no morals and no sense of responsibility. From the beginning she knew, and I had explained very clearly to her, that her main job was to be an accompanying travel nanny. In the end, after I had hired her for two months, on the second day of the first trip she pulled this stunt on me. I have to share this as a warning for other moms."

"We had a positive experience with Ding Ayi as our postpartum nanny. She supported our family during an important and challenging transition, and we appreciated having her help during the early newborn weeks. She is experienced with newborn care and helped with many day-to-day tasks, including feeding support, burping, diaper changes, soothing, bathing, and keeping the baby’s routine organized. She was attentive to the baby’s needs and brought a calm, steady presence to the home, which was especially helpful as first-time parents. We also appreciated that she was proactive and open to feedback. She took initiative around the baby’s care and household routines, while also listening to our preferences and adjusting when we asked. That made it easier for us to work together and feel comfortable with the care our baby was receiving. Overall, we are grateful for Ding Ayi’s support and would recommend her to families looking for an experienced, proactive, and caring postpartum nanny."
