Chinese Nanny & Confinement Nanny (月嫂) Reviews — 30 Most Recent

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.

I highly recommend this amazing postpartum nanny, Sister Meilian! She is professional, patient, and gentle. Our baby is one month old now, and with her by our side this past month, both my baby and I got through it especially smoothly. Sister Meilian has a wonderful personality and is cheerful every day, bringing so much positive energy. She is especially easy to communicate with and very respectful of our parenting ideas. She is patient, and adjusting to each other was very easy and smooth. She is extremely gentle and attentive with the baby. Every day, she handles feeding, diaper changes, bathing, baby massage, and soothing the baby to sleep in an organized way. Our baby feels very secure in her care! Her postpartum meals are not only nutritionally balanced, but also perfectly seasoned. They are light yet very flavorful, with different dishes every day, and every dish is delicious!

Looking back on the two months of my postpartum confinement, the thing I feel most fortunate about was hiring Auntie Yang through a friend’s recommendation who had used her before. From the day I came home after being discharged from the hospital, Auntie Yang used her professionalism, attentiveness, and wholehearted care to create a comfortable, reassuring “postpartum dream” for me. As a first-time mother, all the anxiety and helplessness I once felt disappeared with Auntie Yang by my side. Auntie Yang is absolutely a “hidden culinary master”—her cooking truly earned endless praise! Over these two months, we enjoyed the exquisite dumplings she made by hand, golden and tempting pan-fried cakes, steamed dumplings with thin wrappers and generous fillings, as well as colorful, flavorful home-style dishes: fragrant crayfish, rich braised chicken pieces, refreshing stir-fried vegetables, tender shrimp steamed egg, braised fish pieces, and roasted chicken wings... Every dish not only looked wonderful but also took a postpartum mother’s nutritional needs into account. She adjusted my meals according to my constitution and breastfeeding situation, keeping them light yet delicious. During my confinement, I had an abundant milk supply and also successfully controlled my weight. Eating and drinking well every day was my greatest happiness. When it came to baby care, Auntie Yang was highly skilled. Diaper changes, burping, bathing, infant massage, and gas-relief exercises all flowed smoothly one after another. Our baby had mild jaundice shortly after birth and bloating midway through the month. Auntie Yang patiently recorded bowel movements, urination, and weight every day, and used professional gas-relief exercises and gentle hugs to help the baby sleep peacefully. By the one-month mark, our baby had grown into a sturdy, fair, chubby little sweetheart. She was equally attentive to me as the mother: every day she helped wipe down my body, monitored postpartum discharge, and provided breast care. When I was uncomfortable from engorgement, her gentle, professional lactation massage helped relieve me, allowing me to successfully breastfeed exclusively. Auntie Yang held the baby with a kind, warm smile. Our agreement stated that from 2:00 to 4:00 each afternoon was her personal rest time. When we wanted to bring the baby into our room, she worried that we would not get enough rest and said, “Leave the baby with me. If you take the baby away, I won’t be able to sleep either!” That heartfelt care and sense of responsibility made our whole family feel deeply reassured. She has a cheerful, easygoing personality. Caring for the baby at night was hard, yet during the day she was still full of energy while preparing three meals, never slacking off. She also shared lots of parenting experience, helped me build confidence in scientific parenting, and drove away the shadows of postpartum depression. Words cannot fully express our gratitude for meeting her. Auntie Yang was not only a top-notch maternity nanny, but also the steady anchor of our family during this special time. If you are also looking for a maternity nanny who cooks well, is highly professional, and is caring, Auntie Yang is absolutely the best choice! I strongly recommend her and hope more families can experience Auntie Yang’s warmth and professionalism!

Huahua is an amazing postpartum nanny. We feel so fortunate to have found her! My baby boy was born a month prematurely. When Huahua learned of the news, she immediately adjusted her schedule to come to help us. With Huahua's care, our son grew from a premature baby to a healthy and happy two-month old. Every day, she would tirelessly feed him on demand, lovingly play with him during wake windows, and patiently rock him to sleep. No matter how little sleep she got or how fussy our son was, Huahua was always incredibly patient and loving to him. She would always have a big smile on her face when she talked to him and, now, at 2 month old, he smiles back whenever he sees her. Huahua also took wonderful care of my husband and me. From cantonese soups to grilled meats to dim sum, the meals she prepared are tasty, nourishing, and seamlessly catered to my husband's and my taste. She is also incredibly efficient and would find time to prepare meals and clean up while the baby is sleeping. Perhaps most importantly, Huahua's cheerful and outgoing personality helped to relieve my anxiety as a first time mom and constantly filled our home with laughter and joy. Time flew by and I cannot believe that it is already Huahua's last evening with us. She has become like family to us because she treated our son and us like her own family. We will miss her a lot and will definitely hire her back for our next child!

During the time Auntie Yang cared for me, she truly gave me tremendous peace of mind. She is a very proactive and attentive person. It seemed that she could anticipate many of my needs before I even voiced them. In the first few days after I came home, I was still very weak, and she always reminded me to avoid going up and down the stairs as much as possible. Once meals were ready, she would bring them right to my bedside. She even quietly kept an eye on the water in my cup and never let me drink cold water. Sometimes when an afternoon snack coincided with me breastfeeding, she would even sit beside me and feed me bite by bite. In the days after my surgery, she specially prepared easy-to-digest meals for me and helped stimulate my milk supply and relieve blocked ducts. She thought of many things before I did. Auntie Yang was also very professional with postpartum care. She understood the properties and combinations of different ingredients well and prepared varied meals for me every day. She would boil mugwort water for me to wash my hair and bathe in, and she reminded me which habits to pay attention to during postpartum recovery and how to better protect my body. She cared about my health like family, without being overly nagging. Auntie Yang’s care for the baby was even more meticulous. Whether monitoring jaundice, caring for the umbilical cord, doing baby massage, or passive exercises, she handled everything very skillfully. She also placed great importance on the baby’s gross motor development, helping the baby practice lifting their head, and she was very experienced with early interaction and stimulation for newborns. Our baby tended to cry a lot, especially during the difficult “two-month fussiness” phase, when the baby was truly hard to care for. Whenever the baby cried, no matter where Sister Yang was or what she was doing, she would basically put everything down and come right away. The baby always felt especially secure in her arms, and she patiently observed whether the baby was hungry, sleepy, uncomfortable, or had gas. When the baby had gas, she would do gas-relief exercises and massage the baby’s tummy to help the baby feel more comfortable. Her nighttime care was also especially attentive. If the baby kept crying, she would hold the baby and walk around continuously, patiently soothing the baby to sleep, so that my husband and I could sleep and rest peacefully and my body could recover more quickly. For a new mother who had just given birth and was exhausted every day, the feeling that “someone is watching over your baby at night so you can truly sleep without worry” was incredibly precious. I could clearly feel that Auntie Yang genuinely loves this work and truly likes children. When she talked to the baby, she was always very patient in soothing the baby, and she was very understanding of a young baby’s emotions and needs. Before finishing her placement with us, she also taught my husband and me step by step how to care for the baby. Later, we extended her stay for a while. To be honest, I really wished she could have kept caring for us. I truly felt completely at ease leaving the baby with her. In short, our whole family was very reluctant to say goodbye to Sister Yang. The only thing I regret now is not hiring her for a longer period sooner. If you are looking for a postpartum nanny, I highly recommend Auntie Yang. She is professional, attentive, patient, and has a strong sense of boundaries. More importantly, she truly puts her heart into caring for both mothers and babies. I hope more new mothers can meet a postpartum nanny like Auntie Yang, who brings such peace of mind, and I wish Sister Yang all the best in her future work and that she meets more families who appreciate her!

I strongly recommend the amazing postpartum nanny in our home, Auntie Chen Yu. It has been several months since I finished my postpartum confinement period. I had been so busy that I only just remembered to add this review. Looking back on those dozens of days and nights, the person I most want to thank is our postpartum nanny—Auntie Chen. When we were choosing a postpartum nanny from among so many people online, I was honestly very nervous. But now, I just want to say: this was absolutely one of the best decisions I have ever made. I am grateful for fate bringing us such a wonderful and kind Auntie Chen. What I admire most about Auntie Chen is her truly exceptional professional ability. She helped raise both of my babies. Whether it was the careful attention she gave our older child or the loving care she gave our younger child, she did everything to the utmost. With her guidance, both babies developed very regular routines. Our younger baby’s sleep in particular was adjusted wonderfully by Auntie Chen: falling asleep and feeding at set times every day. This orderly rhythm gave me, a first-time mother, much less to worry about. Besides caring for the babies, Auntie Chen’s cooking is good enough for her to open a private kitchen! Every day she made different postpartum meals for me, all beautiful, delicious, and full of flavor. Even more thoughtfully, she prepared different nourishing postpartum teas for me every day, and used mugwort herbal packs for washing my hair and soaking my feet to dispel cold and dampness. Auntie Chen’s most impressive skill is lactation support and relieving blocked milk ducts. Her technique was professional and effective. It was with her help that both of my babies were able to continue exclusive breastfeeding; no one could replace her contribution. Auntie Chen is also highly skilled in postpartum recovery. She consistently gave me postpartum recovery treatments every day, and the results were truly obvious. Now my figure has basically returned to how it was before. This regained confidence would not have been possible without Auntie Chen’s hard work. Of course, what Auntie Chen brought our family was not only physical recovery, but also emotional comfort. She has a gentle and kind personality. She had to get up every two or three hours every night to feed the baby, which was very hard, but she never complained. She would always smile and tell us, “The baby will slowly grow up and get better day by day.” Whenever I felt irritable or emotionally up and down during my confinement period, she could always notice it sensitively and comfort and encourage me with warm words. She helped me get through this special period feeling relaxed and happy. Even the most difficult period of the baby’s “two-month fussiness” passed smoothly with her soothing care. Now our older child wants to be with Auntie Chen every day, and our younger child sleeps sweetly in her arms. A thousand words can be summed up in one sentence: Auntie Chen, thank you! With your professionalism, love, and smile, you have protected the happiness of our whole family. We also found Auntie Chen online, and we feel lucky to have met such a wonderful and kind auntie. We are grateful for this fate.

We feel incredibly grateful and fortunate to have hired Auntie Li to care for our newborn baby. Auntie Li not only has extensive experience and professional knowledge in newborn care, but she was also very attentive to the baby’s feeding, schedule, and daily care. She also gave me a great deal of care and support during my postpartum recovery, allowing me to rest and recover with peace of mind. Auntie Li is a very loving, patient, and responsible person. She is passionate about her work, genuinely loves babies, and cares for them wholeheartedly. During the 45 days we spent with her, I experienced her professionalism and warmth, and she made me, as a new mother, feel much more at ease. Now that the 45 days have passed, I feel that my body has recovered very well, and the baby has developed a regular routine, making daily care much easier. None of this would have been possible without Auntie Li’s devoted care and help during this time. We really do not want to say goodbye to Auntie Li, and we will definitely miss her! We are deeply grateful for everything she gave and for her companionship with my daughter and me over these 45 days. Meeting such a professional, loving, and responsible postpartum nanny has been incredibly fortunate for us. We wholeheartedly recommend Auntie Li! ❤️

This experience of hiring a maternity nanny was very good. I’m very grateful to Sister Yan for taking care of both my baby and me during this time. I felt very comfortable getting along with her. Sister Yan was very patient and especially attentive in caring for the baby. She handled feeding, burping, diaper changes, bathing, and soothing the baby to sleep very conscientiously. She also took the initiative to observe the baby’s condition and communicated with us promptly if there were any issues. She also took very thoughtful care of me as a postpartum mother, preparing meals every day according to my condition, with a fairly balanced mix of meat and vegetables, and adjusting the flavor as much as possible to suit my preferences. Recovering postpartum was physically tiring, and Sister Yan helped us a great deal during this period, allowing me to get more rest and reducing our stress. She was also quite efficient in her work and paid attention to keeping the baby’s belongings clean and organized by category. Whenever something came up, we were able to communicate and resolve it well. For first-time parents caring for a baby, having an experienced and responsible maternity nanny really provides a lot of peace of mind. Sister Yan worked very hard during this time, and we are also very grateful for her attentive care of the baby. Overall, we were very satisfied and recommend her to mothers who need this kind of help!

Sister Xu came to our home and helped care for me and my baby for 45 days. During that time, she took very good care of both of us and helped me get through the special postpartum period comfortably. She was a great help to my recovery during my confinement period. In our daily interactions, Sister Xu was sincere and generous, with a lively and cheerful personality. She communicated well, and we had no communication barriers. When caring for the baby, I could feel that she genuinely likes children and was patient and loving with my baby. At the same time, she was very caring toward me as well, often reminding me to keep warm, such as not letting my knees and feet get cold. Also worth mentioning is that Sister Xu’s lactation massage technique was very professional. With her help, I never experienced blocked milk ducts or mastitis during my confinement period. Thank you, Sister Xu!

We feel incredibly, incredibly fortunate to have met Auntie Liu. I’m grateful for her care, which helped me recover to my pre-pregnancy condition sooner despite being older and having had a C-section. Auntie Liu has extensive experience caring for babies and can help first-time parents anticipate many situations with a baby, such as jaundice, baby acne, and gas. Under Auntie Liu’s care, our baby smoothly got through common newborn issues. With her help, I was also able to establish milk production successfully, and my supply exceeded expectations. Auntie Liu planned meals according to my physical condition, and they were delicious—so delicious that I finished everything before having time to take photos. The postpartum confinement period went by too quickly. I really wish we could have kept Auntie Liu longer. I also hope she can help more first-time parents.

We had the honor of having Liang Jie in our home in June 2026 for 36 days to care for me and our daughter. Her service is hands down the best investment we’ve ever made. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a yuesao. Liang Jie is warm, kind, optimistic, organized, caring, and professional. She integrated herself into our home so naturally and perfectly. When I was still in the hospital waiting to be discharged, she came to our home and immediately took charge. My husband told me that she assessed the fridge, pantry, freezer, and sauces, making a mental inventory of what we had and what we needed. He drove her to the grocery stores, and she did all the shopping without needing to ask a single question. She stayed up all night preparing the food, so when I came home from the hospital, everything was ready for me. Liang Jie is an incredible cook. She genuinely loves cooking, and every meal she made was both nourishing and delicious. My husband is not Chinese, and she even took the time to learn how to make lasagna for him because it’s his favorite dish. She is also so qingkuai and was always baking fresh bread and cookies for me and my daughter. Liang Jie treated our newborn like she was her own. It was so sweet to watch her interact with and love our baby with all her heart. I knew I could completely trust her because of her extensive experience in this field—she has been doing this work for over 15 years! She helped me with breastfeeding, bathed the baby, changed every diaper, and even gave her little massages. We also have an older daughter, and Liang Jie made sure she felt included and special throughout the entire experience. Because I chose to breastfeed, Liang Jie would help me at night with getting the baby to latch. After I finished feeding, she would take the baby, burp her, change her diaper, and put her back to bed so I could get some sleep. I couldn’t believe the level of care and service she provided. We all cried when she left—not because of the help she provided, but because of the lessons she taught us and, most of all, because it felt like we were saying goodbye to a family member. We still keep in touch with her, and I truly could not recommend her enough to anyone looking for a yuesao. She is an incredible person, and we feel so lucky to have had her care for our family.

I highly recommend Sister Wen. She is young, capable, energetic, efficient, and conscientious. Overall, she comes across as dependable and worry-free—she is not very talkative but takes action readily. During her time with our family, she quickly adapted to the new environment and our lifestyle habits. When problems arose, she proactively found solutions and handled things in an organized way, which gave us great peace of mind. She cared for our baby in a very knowledgeable, attentive, and patient way. She carefully observed the baby’s condition and needs and adjusted her care flexibly according to the baby’s routine and situation, rather than rigidly following a fixed method. She took the baby out for walks every day so the baby could experience the outdoors and get some sunshine. She was also very thorough with the baby’s daily care and very patient with the baby. We could clearly feel that she was genuinely caring for the baby wholeheartedly. In addition, she cooks very well! She adjusted dishes and flavors according to our tastes and preferences, and the meals were fairly well balanced nutritionally. She did not need us to repeatedly explain what needed to be done; she proactively arranged many things herself and truly helped reduce a lot of our burden. One thing we especially liked about her was that she has great energy, a stable temperament, and is not overly talkative. She did not excessively interrupt our family life, but she carefully completed everything that needed to be done. For first-time parents, having someone dependable, attentive, and able to proactively solve problems by your side is truly very important. Overall, she is a young postpartum nanny who is experienced, responsible, adaptable, and especially easy to have around. We are very grateful for the care she gave our baby and our whole family during this time, and we sincerely recommend her!

Sister Cao is conscientious and responsible in her work. She took thoughtful care of both the baby and me as the new mother. Being able to find a maternity nanny like Sister Cao while living abroad gave our whole family much greater peace of mind. The baby had no gas or diaper rash throughout, and stayed safe and healthy. Sister Cao cared for the baby as if the baby were her own, and the baby also really liked and depended on her. She communicated very well with me, and even when postpartum hormones made me irritable, Sister Cao was 100% understanding. In every way, she helped me through a pleasant postpartum confinement period. Finding a worry-free maternity nanny and maintaining a comfortable mood during confinement are crucial to postpartum recovery. Even a high-needs baby can be very well cared for in Sister Cao’s hands. Thank you, Sister Cao, for your companionship and care all the way through.

We had a wonderful time with our nanny and were extremely satisfied with her work. If I had to describe her in one sentence, both my husband and I would say: she is simply our “Chinese version of Mary Poppins”! When we first came home from the hospital, the two of us were honestly a little overwhelmed. As first-time parents facing a newborn, there were so many things we did not know how to do. As soon as the nanny arrived, she very naturally took charge of the household rhythm. She immediately began caring for the baby, and also carefully went through the baby supplies, care products, and items in the kitchen. She quickly learned our habits and familiarized herself with our home, which gave us so much peace of mind. She is extremely organized and methodical. Whether she is caring for the baby, preparing meals, or handling household matters, she plans ahead and approaches everything systematically, keeping our whole home in a very comfortable and stable state. What touched us most was her patience and attentiveness with our baby. She observes the baby very carefully and is even more patient than we are as new parents. She notices every small change in the baby and promptly tells us how to handle it. She is also a fast learner: whenever we have new requests or parenting approaches, she studies them seriously and masters them quickly. She was also very willing to teach us hands-on how to care for the baby. From feeding, burping, diaper changes, and bathing, to holding and soothing the baby, as well as how to play and interact with the baby day to day, she patiently demonstrated everything for us. We went from being completely flustered at the beginning to gradually becoming more and more confident. One thing we especially appreciated was that she always spoke to and communicated with the baby very gently and patiently. She was not simply caring for the baby in a task-completion way; she was truly observing, understanding, and accompanying the baby. As parents, we were genuinely moved when we saw her interacting with our baby. She also handled newborn issues such as jaundice and eczema with great care and experience, which eased a lot of our anxiety. She observed the baby’s condition promptly and told us what to watch for, giving us first-time parents much greater peace of mind. In addition, she is an excellent cook! Every day, she prepared different meals based on our tastes and my postpartum recovery needs. The food was nutritious, light, and delicious, allowing us to eat well and rest well while caring for the baby. Looking back on this postpartum confinement period, we truly feel so lucky to have met her. She was not only helping us care for our baby, but also helping two completely inexperienced new parents grow. She gave us a great deal of practical help as well as a tremendous sense of security. We are deeply grateful for all of her hard work and companionship during this time. Even a five-star review is not enough to express how satisfied we are! If any friends need a postpartum nanny in the future, we will absolutely recommend her. ❤️

We have been very happy with Xia Mei and the care she has provided for our son. She has been with our family from when he was 8 months old through 12 months, which was such an important period of growth and development, and she has been wonderful throughout. Xia Mei is very caring, joyful, and responsible. She pays close attention to his needs and is especially conscientious about safety and cleanliness. She is also someone who takes initiative when she notices a potential issue. For example, when our son was teething, he would often bite on the protective foam pads we had around the house. Xia Mei was concerned that he might bite pieces off and ingest them, so she actually hand-sewed fabric covers over the foam to make them safer. It was a small thing, but it really showed us how attentive she is and how seriously she takes his safety. She has also been wonderful at supporting his development and milestones. She is very engaged with him throughout the day and encourages him to explore, learn, and develop new skills. We have really appreciated having someone who is so attentive to both his day-to-day needs and his overall development. Xia Mei is also very responsive to us as parents. If we have a particular request or preference, she is always accommodating and respectful of what we want. At the same time, she has a lot of experience and has given us helpful advice and suggestions when she thinks something might work well for our son. I really appreciate that she shares her perspective without being pushy — she always respects our decisions and ultimately follows our wishes as parents. Beyond being a great nanny, Xia Mei is a genuinely lovely person to have in the home. She has a warm and joyful personality, communicates very well, and has been easy and pleasant to live with. Since she has been part of our household every day, this has been very important to us. We have really enjoyed having her around. Most importantly, I have been very pleased with the way she treats our son. She is affectionate, attentive, patient, and genuinely cares about him. We have felt very comfortable leaving him in her care and have been grateful for the support she has given our family. We would be very happy to recommend Xia Mei to another family.

Auntie Chen is a highly experienced and very caring postpartum nanny. She helped me through my confinement month, and I feel deeply grateful to her. After having an unsuccessful confinement experience with my first child, I came to understand the true value of a good postpartum nanny—Auntie Chen is one of those rare, exceptional ones. She truly loves babies. Every night, as soon as the baby cried, she would immediately get up to check on the baby. The baby felt very secure with her and even became quite dependent on her. She has extensive experience caring for babies: when the baby first came home, she monitored the baby’s jaundice every day; before the umbilical cord fell off, she carefully folded the diaper down to avoid the cord; and every time we went to see the pediatrician, she came along and provided the doctor with updates. Whenever the baby cried hard and we had no idea what to do, she was like an anchor that gave us peace of mind. Her care for me as a new mother was also meticulous and thoughtful. On the day she arrived, she began helping me with breast massage to clear blocked milk ducts. After they were cleared, I felt much more energized overall. My mother also said that my complexion looked much better. With my first child, because of improper diet and breast care, I had to keep going to a lactation consultant for blocked ducts. She boiled mugwort water every night for me to soak my feet in, and later in my confinement period, she also helped wipe my body with mugwort water. Every day, she also made different delicious meals for me. Thanks to her, our southern Chinese family got to eat freshly made dumplings and steamed buns. The confinement period is the most vulnerable time in a woman’s life. I hope everyone will have the good fortune to meet a wonderful postpartum nanny like Auntie Chen.

We are very grateful to Sister Liang for helping us care for our baby during this time. She has extensive experience caring for babies and is very skilled at feeding, burping, changing diapers, bathing, and soothing the baby to sleep. She knows how to comfort a baby and handle all kinds of situations. When she was with us, we always felt reassured and at ease. After she left, it has been very difficult for us to find a maternity nanny of the same caliber. We would also often discuss with Sister Liang the various issues that commonly came up with other babies in moms’ groups. Sister Liang could always suggest solutions, and our own baby never had these problems, thanks to Sister Liang’s excellent care. In addition, Sister Liang is also a very good cook, especially when it comes to flour-based foods. Her steamed rolls, meat pies, and fried flatbreads are all especially delicious. My husband likes them very much. Wishing Sister Liang all the best in life and work! We hope to hire Sister Liang again when we have our second child!

We have really loved having Nancy with us. For starters, we do not speak the same language but she was willing to work with us and talk us through everything that was going on with our baby and plan out our days so that there were no surprises. Any stress that might have come due to the language barrier was alleviated due to her careful explanations and resolve to ensure we all understood each other. She has been so wonderful and patient with our newborn who wants to be held at all times. She is attentive to our newborn's needs, and takes good care of our baby. She plays with the baby and chats with her all day long. She is careful about the clothes that the baby wears, making sure they are soft without too many buttons and Nancy cuts out any rough tags. She even made special pillows for our baby so that the baby can be comfortable. Nancy is a wonderful cook and has adjusted dishes to our preferences. She makes amazing ribs and braised pork and fish. Her dumplings are incredible, steamed or pan-fried. She makes multiple different fresh dishes every day for all our meals - our entire family loves to eat Nancy's cooking. She is also in tune to what we enjoy and makes sure to cook more of that, such as noodles and vegetables. She also makes alot of hearty porridges and soups to help in my wife's recovery. It's been great having Nancy here and I would highly recommend her to any family.

We are very grateful to the maternity nanny for taking such attentive care of our baby during this time! Auntie Ye was very patient and meticulous, and she was always gentle and loving with our baby. She took her work seriously, carefully observed our baby’s condition and needs, and helped us as first-time parents feel reassured and less anxious. In addition to daily feeding, soothing the baby to sleep, and infant care, she also gave the baby massages, baths, and other care. She was extremely patient with the baby and took excellent care of every detail. Our baby liked her very much and was always happy to see her. After spending this time together, we truly feel that she is responsible and dedicated, and she gave us a great deal of help and support. We are very thankful for her care of our baby! We hope we will have the opportunity to work with Auntie Ye again.

Auntie Zhou is a professional postpartum nanny with love in her heart and an eye for work. She promptly notices and keeps clean areas with many folds on the baby, such as the groin, underarms, and neck. She is focused and consistent when feeding the baby, cares for the baby very attentively, patiently soothes the baby to sleep, and thoughtfully helps the new mother relieve breast engorgement. At the same time, she is very hardworking, finding time to clean and promptly tidy the kitchen and bathroom. She is also an excellent cook who pays attention to balanced nutrition. She can make stir-fried and steamed dishes, meat and fish, as well as many kinds of dough-based foods such as dumplings, wontons, flatbreads, and wheat cakes, all of which taste delicious. She is also easy to communicate with. After we explain in advance the things we want her to pay attention to, she follows our requirements.

Ladies, before giving birth I was so anxious I couldn’t sleep. I was afraid a bad postpartum confinement would ruin my life, afraid I wouldn’t have enough milk, would get depressed, or wouldn’t eat well… Looking back now, my biggest blessing was hiring Auntie Yang 🙏 Just look at the photos! She made all of these meals as part of her daily routine—they are not staged! Purple rice, stir-fried kidney, sautéed loofah, cold shredded kelp salad, corn and mushroom soup… She changed things up every day, with balanced meat and vegetables and no repeated dishes. The key is that it was delicious and I didn’t gain weight! By the end of my confinement, I was actually 3 jin lighter than before giving birth, and my milk supply was especially abundant. Auntie Yang truly understands postpartum nutrition. Her soups helped promote lactation without being greasy, and even someone like me with no appetite could eat two big bowls of rice 🍚 Her care skills go without saying. She was even more nervous than I was about the baby’s baths, massage, and umbilical-cord care. Her hands were so gentle, and with her taking care of the baby, the little one slept soundly and smelled lovely every day 😂 She also patiently taught me all kinds of newborn-care knowledge, and I went from being completely flustered to being able to handle things myself later on. As for me, her breast-unblocking technique was professional and painless. She would get up whenever called at night, letting me sleep through the night, and my postpartum emotions stayed very stable. Auntie Yang also has a wonderful personality. She smiles a lot and doesn’t nitpick, always notices what needs doing, and keeps the home spotless. Talking with her felt like talking with a sister—never awkward at all. You can tell from the photos how good her cooking looks; she made different things every day, and even my husband craved her cooking, haha. I sincerely recommend her to any ladies still looking for a maternity nanny. Auntie Yang is the rare kind who is both professional and warm-hearted—a top-tier nanny. If you meet her, you’ve struck gold! ❤️

From August to October 2024, Ms. Jia provided two months of nanny services for our family, specifically caring for our newborn child, Maima. During this time, she demonstrated an extremely high level of professionalism, responsibility, and care, providing us with tremendous help and support. Ms. Jia was exceptionally conscientious and responsible in her work, providing meticulous daily care for Maima, including feeding, bathing, infant massage, and scheduling. She not only ensured our child’s health and comfort, but also used her extensive experience and keen observation to help us, as first-time parents, resolve many of the questions and difficulties we encountered while caring for our child. Whenever we had questions, she was always able to provide clear, appropriate solutions grounded in professional knowledge. Our entire family was very satisfied with Ms. Jia’s service and deeply grateful for the help she provided during this important period. She is a trustworthy, professional, and caring nanny. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family and believe she can bring the same outstanding support and peace of mind to a new family.

Auntie Shen is a very professional, caring, and responsible postpartum nanny. As first-time parents, we inevitably felt a little helpless when faced with situations like our baby crying and having gas, but with Auntie Shen’s attentive care, our anxiety was eased and we felt much more at ease. She was especially patient and attentive with the baby. When the baby had severe gas at night and could not sleep soundly lying flat, she often held the baby and stayed seated with them for more than half the night. In addition to caring for the baby, she was also very thoughtful toward Mom, preparing wellness drinks and a variety of nutritious meals every day. She also made many snacks—we especially highly recommend her fresh meat mooncakes and egg-yolk pastries! Before finishing her stay, Auntie Shen patiently explained the issues the baby might encounter afterward and how to handle them, which gave us more confidence after she left. We were truly very lucky to find Auntie Shen as our postpartum nanny! With her support, our first month—which otherwise might have been hectic and overwhelming—was much easier and calmer, and we were able to get good rest. We sincerely recommend Auntie Shen!

Yu Yang exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend her services as a truly excellent and immensely professional Yue Sao ("moon nanny"). We hired Yu Yang for six weeks in July 2026 to help us care for our newborn son and his postpartum recovering mother. We are a multi-cultural family living in the Washington DC area. I am the father, an American; and the mother is a Chinese citizen. Yu Yang has rich, extensive expertise in all aspects of newborn baby care. She orients all of her care around the first priorities of baby health, baby safety, and baby's earliest development. From helping the mother to feed the baby, to acclimating the baby to bottles and formula (if needed), to ensuring safe regular sleep, to promoting early baby playtime, and to helping ensure the baby bonds with his parents. Yu Yang smoothly blends traditional Chinese infant care practices with modern and western pediatrics. We felt confident that our first baby was well cared for at every moment. Yu Yang also provides expert care for the postpartum recovering mother. This included proper balanced nutrition through healthy meals, attention to mother's rest in the earliest days after hospital, and providing support, encouragement, and training on how to breastfeed a newborn baby. Yu Yang is also trained in body massage for new mothers to support milk production and prevent clogging and discomfort. Yu Yang is an excellent cook - specializing in a wide variety of healthy Chinese home-made meals. The meals were delicious an nutritious. There was enough variety to keep every day interesting. And Yu Yang has some very special dishes that she makes as occasional treats (delicious steamed cakes, handmade hun-tun dumplings, bao zi, and more.) Yu Yang is also a very kind person who is a dedicated and loving caregiver. Over the weeks, we felt Yu Yang became a part of our family. She genuinely made a safe, caring bond with our newborn son - keeping him safe and healthy, but also delighting in seeing him growth and change. She was very communicative with us as newborn parents - about schedules, meals, daily activities, purchasing needs, and payments/receipts. Yu Yang has a very positive attitude and an optimistic outlook. She really helped to encourage us as new parents and gave us perspective on how to approach our new life as a family. Before the service was up, Yu Yang made sure to teach us the key fundamentals of baby care - positions to hold the baby, nap times, feeding plans, diaper changes, playtime ideas, and more. Finally, I will share a few thoughts from my perspective as an American father who was working with a Yue Sao for the first time. I found Yu Yang to be very kind, patient, and adaptable to me. My Chinese language skills are good, but not perfect. Yu Yang was clear and articulate in speaking with me, willing to adapt to my language level. She also shared her perspectives on Chinese baby care, and was willing to listen and accommodate to my family's American baby care practices. It was very fun and enlightening to learn more about her wisdoms and traditions. I remember in those earliest days - when my wife was recovering in bed - Yu Yang and I made a good team around the house and on trips to the pediatrician to help care for our newborn boy.

After Sister Dang finished caring for our second child through the first month after birth, we kept her on as our childcare nanny for 2025–2026. Sister Dang has remained as reliable as ever—she is capable at childcare, cooking, and organizing. We have no grandparents or other family members helping us, so with Sister Dang here, we feel especially at ease when we travel for work, take our older child to and from activities, or take the older child out for competitions. She is one of the few postpartum/childcare nannies who can truly work independently. We can completely entrust the children to her. During this time, when our second child was sick or injured from a fall, Sister Dang personally took care of everything. Our second child is now two years old, and everyone says the child has been fed very well. In this mixed-quality market, Sister Dang is a reliable choice. In addition, Sister Dang has a very easygoing personality and communicates well; any issues can be raised with her directly. She is also very adaptable and proactive about noticing what needs to be done. In short, you definitely will not go wrong choosing Sister Dang.

We feel very fortunate to have hired Auntie Jiang to care for our baby. She is conscientious and responsible, very patient with our baby, and provides attentive, thoughtful care that gives our whole family peace of mind. Her cooking is also delicious and suits our tastes well. Every day, she thoughtfully prepared postpartum herbal water for me and kept the home very tidy. Whenever there was something concerning the baby or anything we needed to pay attention to, she communicated with us promptly and patiently shared a great deal of her childcare experience. We are very grateful to Auntie Jiang for the dedicated care she has given our baby and our whole family over the past month, and for the help and companionship she provided during my postpartum recovery. She is a conscientious, responsible, experienced, and trustworthy maternity nanny, and we highly recommend her!

Thank you so much to Sister Chunni for taking such meticulous care of my baby and me during this time! She is very professional, attentive, and responsible, and incredibly patient with the baby. Whether it was feeding, burping, bathing, changing diapers, or the baby’s daily care and routine, she handled everything very thoughtfully, which gave our whole family great peace of mind. While caring for the baby, she was also very considerate toward me as a postpartum mother. Based on my situation, she prepared nutritious, balanced, light, and tasty postpartum meals, and reminded me to rest and focus on my recovery. Whenever we had questions about caring for the baby, she patiently communicated with us and shared her own experience. During this time, the baby was very well cared for, and I was able to get plenty of rest and recover. Not only was she conscientious and responsible in her work, but she was also easygoing and kind, and being around her felt like having a family member. I feel very fortunate to have met such a wonderful postpartum nanny during my confinement period. I sincerely appreciate all that she did and would be very happy to recommend her to other mothers who need help!

The nanny was extremely irresponsible. She agreed to everything at first, then casually backed out on the employer two months later. On July 28, 2026, we confirmed our intention to work together with her and discussed her start date. She readily agreed. She proactively suggested paying the deposit after getting vaccinated in September, and both sides agreed. On September 3, she submitted her vaccination record. We discussed the start date, and she said there was no problem. On September 5, she suddenly said she had to go to Singapore with her current employer and could not start work. We tried to persuade her to stay and even offered to pay more, but she simply stopped replying. If you are also considering Auntie Chen, be careful not to become her next backup option.
