Caiyun Xu (徐彩云)

We had the pleasure of working with Caiyun during the first several weeks after our son was born. As first time parents, she was an incredible source of support, helping us both care for our newborn and with postpartum recovery. Caiyun was very knowledgeable, explaining our baby’s development and what she was doing, which helped us feel at ease. Caiyun was always patient, positive, and caring with our baby, and her vibrant energy and warmth was a welcome addition to our home. Caiyun also made wonderful, nourishing meals and helped us with many breastfeeding challenges along the way. We’re grateful for the support and education she provided us during such an important time and would happily recommend her to any new parents.

We feel very fortunate to have found Sister Caiyun to help us for a month. Whether it was caring for the newborn or the postpartum mother, Sister Caiyun was extremely knowledgeable and experienced. As knowledge in this area continues to evolve, she has kept learning new Chinese and Western approaches. While giving us all kinds of professional advice, she also deeply respected the parents’ preferences and ideas, which is rare. Even more valuable than her professional knowledge was that I could feel that Sister Caiyun genuinely loved our child from the bottom of her heart. Because of that, everything she did no longer felt like just a job to make a living, but something into which she put her own sense of responsibility and emotion. That is probably the hardest thing to come by. In addition to taking care of the baby’s basic eating and sleeping needs, when the baby was awake she would sing many songs to her, keep talking to her, often do exercises and massage for her, or take her outside for a walk. I feel these things were all beneficial to the baby’s brain development. With her helping care for the baby, my husband and I were truly much more relaxed, our sleep was much more protected, and at the same time we felt especially reassured. By the time she left, the baby already had a very regular routine and was able to sleep for longer stretches at night. In terms of caring for the postpartum mother, Sister Caiyun prepared four meals a day for me (and my husband), with rich nutrition and a wide variety of foods. The meals were also adjusted according to the postpartum mother’s different physical conditions at different stages after delivery. Her cooking was delicious and beautiful, and her flour-based dishes were especially good. Those steamed buns were truly the best buns I’ve had in all my years in the United States. But beyond the food, what I am even more grateful for is that during my long daily breastfeeding sessions, Sister Caiyun kept me company and chatted with me about all kinds of things and everyday life. It may not sound like a big deal, but looking back, it was exactly this emotional companionship every day that helped me get through that postpartum month steadily. I had always heard people say that because of the huge hormonal fluctuations and lack of sleep after childbirth, postpartum mothers can easily have major mood swings or even depression. But with Sister Caiyun’s help, I felt that my emotions stayed quite stable and my mood remained fairly positive. It’s a pity that Sister Caiyun had other bookings afterward and couldn’t stay longer. When she left, I felt especially reluctant to part with her. Meeting one another is a great kind of fate. Grateful!

在寻找月嫂的时候，我只和彩云阿姨聊了大约10分钟就决定定下她。当时我也面试了不少其他的月嫂，她们或许都有不错的履历和很强的个人能力，但彩云阿姨最打动我的，是她对这份工作的热情，以及对宝宝发自内心的喜爱。 事实证明，我的选择没有错！由于宝宝提前了三周出生，我们全家都措手不及，刚回家的几天几乎是手忙脚乱。阿姨在正式上户前的几天就一直远程指导我们，通过观察宝宝的大小便情况帮助我们调整喂养方式，还主动协调时间，提前上户来“解救”我们。 有阿姨在的每一天，家里都井井有条。她每天都会在App上认真记录宝宝喝奶、睡觉和运动的时间，也会帮助宝宝建立白天和夜晚的节律，让家人随时了解宝宝的大小便情况和奶量变化。每天的Tummy Time和早操时间，阿姨还会一边给宝宝唱歌，一边陪她做互动，给足宝宝情绪价值和安全感。 对我产后的照顾更是既细致又贴心，不仅关注身体恢复，也非常照顾情绪。阿姨每天都会准备养生茶水和营养下午点心，也会关心我的恶露情况和母乳情况，并给出专业建议。在我和家人在育儿或坐月子观念不一致的时候，她也会耐心沟通、帮助协调。 彩云阿姨的厨艺也非常了得。无论中餐、西餐，还是中式西式的糕点和蛋糕，她都样样拿手，只要你想吃，总能满足你的胃。 更让我开心的是，我们之间的相处更像朋友一样轻松自在。我也有幸在阿姨学习美国Doula最新课程的时候“蹭了几节课”。没错，阿姨已经这么专业了，却依然每天坚持学习英语和最新的育儿知识，这份认真和热情真的非常难得。 Recommendation for Caiyun When I was searching for a postpartum nanny, I decided to hire Caiyun after just a 10-minute conversation. I had interviewed several other candidates at the time, and many of them had impressive resumes and strong experience. However, what truly stood out about Caiyun was her genuine passion for this work and the sincere love she has for babies. It turns out that my decision was absolutely the right one. Our baby arrived three weeks earlier than expected, and our whole family felt completely unprepared. The first few days after coming home were quite overwhelming. Even before she officially started working with us, Caiyun provided remote guidance, helping us adjust our feeding approach based on the baby’s diaper output. She also kindly adjusted her schedule and came earlier than planned to help us during those stressful first days. With Caiyun in our home, everything quickly became well organized. She carefully records the baby’s feeding, sleeping, and activity times in an app every day, and she also helps the baby distinguish between day and night. This makes it easy for the whole family to track diaper output and milk intake. During tummy time and the baby’s daily exercises, she sings to the baby and interacts with her, providing lots of emotional warmth and a sense of security. Caiyun also takes wonderful care of me during my postpartum recovery, both physically and emotionally. Every day she prepares nourishing herbal drinks and healthy afternoon snacks. She regularly checks in on my recovery, including postpartum bleeding and breastfeeding, and offers thoughtful advice. Whenever there were differences in opinions between family members about postpartum care or baby care, she helped communicate and coordinate in a very supportive way. In addition, Caiyun is an excellent cook. She can prepare a wide variety of dishes—from Chinese and Western meals to homemade pastries and cakes. Whatever you feel like eating, she can almost always make it happen. What makes the experience even more special is that we get along like friends. I even had the chance to sit in while she was studying the latest Doula training courses. Despite already being so experienced, she continues to work hard on improving her English and learning the latest childcare knowledge. Her dedication and passion for her work are truly impressive. We feel very lucky to have had Caiyun with us during this important time.

徐姐在我们宝宝出生后，陪伴和照顾了我们一个半月的时间。在这段时间里，她一直非常认真、细心、负责地照顾宝宝，也给我们家庭带来了很大的帮助。 徐姐是一个非常热心、踏实又上进的人。她有扎实的育儿理论基础，也有丰富的实际经验，对新生儿护理非常专业。无论是宝宝的日常喂养、作息观察，还是一些常见问题的处理，比如湿疹、胃食管反流等，她都能够根据经验给出很有帮助的建议，并且耐心地进行护理。 在照顾宝宝方面，徐姐非常细心和负责。晚上宝宝只要有一点动静，她基本都会第一时间注意到，及时安抚和照顾，让人非常放心。她也会经常带着宝宝做一些适合月龄的小活动和小操，帮助宝宝更好地成长发育。 除了照顾宝宝，徐姐也把宝妈照顾得很好。她会准备早餐、做点心和月子餐，饮食安排也很用心。 另外让我很佩服的一点是，徐姐是一个非常上进的人。她一直在主动学习新的育儿知识和护理方法，对这份工作充满热情，也是真心喜欢宝宝，希望把事情做到更好。 总体来说，徐姐无论在专业能力、责任心，还是工作态度上，都做得非常好。我们非常感谢她这段时间对宝宝和宝妈的照顾，也很推荐她给需要月嫂的家庭。

因为宝宝提前出生，打乱了原本的计划，但我们很幸运地请到了徐姐。由于我们自己的家庭安排，徐姐是在宝宝出生后一周到家。在那一周里，我们作为新手爸妈非常手忙脚乱，徐姐一直通过微信远程耐心地指导我们，回答各种问题，也安慰我、鼓励我，帮我缓解了很多情绪上的焦虑和压力。 她一到家就迅速进入状态，洗完澡就接手宝宝的照顾，也马上开始照顾我。每天帮我照理疗灯、泡脚，提醒我按时休息，动作利落又贴心，在身体和情绪恢复方面都给了我很大的支持。 在照顾宝宝方面，徐姐特别有耐心，对宝宝非常细致入微。无论是洗澡、换尿布、哄睡，还是观察黄疸、脐带等恢复情况，她都非常专业、用心。她每天都会主动和宝宝说话、唱歌、做互动，看得出她是真心喜欢宝宝。宝宝在她手里总是安稳、放松，作为妈妈，我看在眼里特别安心。 她做饭也非常用心，每天菜品都丰富多样、营养搭配合理，不仅照顾我，还照顾我老公和妈妈。临走前还提前包了很多包子和粽子放进冰箱，生活细节安排得井井有条，真的特别周到。 她做事麻利、细致有条理，性格也很好沟通，和家人相处非常自然融洽。徐姐在家的这段时间，整个家庭都轻松了不少，氛围温暖、安稳。 非常感谢徐姐这段时间的陪伴与照顾，这段经历我们会一直记在心里。

We relied on Caiyun for 4 months as a Chinese postpartum (confinement) and newborn care specialist, and we cannot express enough how grateful we are for her presence during this important chapter of our lives. From day one, it felt like she became part of our family and treated us like family, too. Our son arrived weeks early, and Caiyun responded immediately with warmth, care, and action. Within hours of hearing the news, she tapped into her network to help us secure interim support and generously moved up her start date to accommodate us. That early gesture set the tone for her entire time with us — proactive, dependable, and incredibly thoughtful. Caiyun brings deep expertise and a calm, confident energy that helped us feel reassured as first-time parents. Her newborn care knowledge is outstanding: from diapering, bathing, and feeding to recognizing early signs of eczema and diaper rash and recommending effective remedies. She’s attentive to every detail, and her communication is always clear, respectful, and thoughtful. She also guided us through each stage of our son’s development, suggesting age-appropriate activities and talking us through each milestone — as well as what to expect next. Her insights helped us feel more informed, confident, and connected as new parents. What stood out just as much was her care for the whole family. As a mom in recovery, I felt truly cared for — especially in the early postpartum weeks. Every morning, she brought breakfast to bed, putting incredible thought into each meal — using color, variety, and nutrient-rich ingredients to support healing while also brightening the day. She prepared nutritious meals, drew foot baths, shared helpful postpartum tips, and even guided me through gentle exercises to rebuild my strength. She’s a true self-starter, always looking for ways to help without needing to be asked, whether it’s supporting baby, tidying up, or anticipating family needs. Caiyun is also incredibly warm and joyful with our baby. She knows countless songs and rhymes, and we loved hearing her laugh and sing with him throughout the day. We often caught her laughing and chatting away with him — her love for babies is so genuine and heartwarming. With her help, we were able to fully relax and trust that our son was in great hands, which gave us the confidence to step out for dinner dates and run errands without worry. As we search for long-term baby-care, we realize how rare it is to find someone with her level of skill, heart, and professionalism. She’s clean, respectful, loving, and brings her whole self to the work she does. We feel so lucky to have had her during these first months — and though we’ll miss her deeply, we know the next family she joins will be just as lucky. As one final act of kindness before leaving, she even prepared and froze some dumplings so we could continue to enjoy her cooking after she’s gone — a perfect example of her thoughtfulness and care.

徐姐非常有活力，每天都精力充沛，无论是白天还是夜里都照顾得非常周到。她对孩子特别有耐心，带孩子非常专业，尤其在胀气期，她通过专业的护理方法让宝宝的胀气情况变得轻微，几乎没听到孩子哭闹，因为宝宝的需求总是能第一时间被满足。 我刚生完孩子很虚弱，多亏有徐姐在我可以充分修养，完全不用操心孩子的事情。此外，徐姐的厨艺也非常了得，特别擅长做面食，每天的饭菜不仅营养搭配合理，还特别好吃，让我们全家都吃得很满意。总之，有了她的帮助，我在月子期间非常轻松，也更有信心应对带娃的挑战，非常推荐

徐阿姨有很全面的专业知识和丰富的实际经验，不仅科学护理新生儿，还为我太太提供全方位的产后支持。她在婴儿护理方面表现出色，从喂奶、拍嗝、换尿布到新生儿的日常清洁、抚触和睡眠引导，每一个细节都处理得井井有条。她观察宝宝的行为和身体状况，能够及时发现并解决问题，例如判断宝宝是否有生病迹象或调整喂养方式以适应宝宝的需求。 在产妇护理方面，徐阿姨注重产妇的身体恢复和心理健康。她根据我太太的体质和饮食习惯，制作营养均衡的月子餐，帮助她恢复体力，同时促进乳汁分泌。她还重视产后恢复的重要性，指导产妇进行简单的产后运动，并随时关心产妇的情绪变化，提供心理上的安慰和支持。 此外，徐阿姨具有很强的沟通能力和良好的职业道德。她能够与家庭成员和谐相处，主动了解家庭的习惯和需求，调整自己的工作方式，以更好地融入家庭生活。无论面对何种情况，她都能保持耐心和专业态度
