Gan Aiyi provided excellent care for me and my son. As a first time mom, it was amazing to have her support for our new family. Her Cantonese style soups and cooking were hearty and tasty. She is very professional and we recommend her to anyone looking for high quality care. read more

We had Cao Ah Yi with us for 26 days during the transition into life as a family of four, and we genuinely can't imagine having done it without her. Our newborn struggles with a cow's milk protein allergy, just as our first did, and through every hard moment Ah Yi was the personification of patience, love, and care. She worked with us to build a consistent feeding schedule, diligently cycled our daughter through exercises to relieve her gas and reflux, and folded our older son into tasks whenever she could so he felt included rather than displaced. Her coverage of all the night feedings let me sleep and recover from my c-section far more quickly and completely than I expected, and gave me extra time with our toddler as he found his footing as a big brother. Like the rest of us, he grew deeply attached to Ah Yi and warmed to her like family almost instantly. We cannot say enough wonderful things about what she did for us, and we're so sad to see her go. Calling her a blessing is an understatement. read more

I am so incredibly grateful for the care and support Luo ah yi provided for our family during the first month after our baby was born. When I first came home from the hospital, I was struggling, but she was there every step of the way. She didn't just handle my meals well; she patiently guided me through the challenges of breastfeeding, transforming it from a painful experience into a beautiful bonding time. We felt completely at ease leaving our baby in her care. You can truly see that she cares for infants with genuine love, and the way our baby interacted with her was the sweetest thing to witness. My husband also loved her cooking, every meal was a delight. Beyond her professional skills, she became a wonderful companion. She is an incredibly kind, selfless, and dedicated person, and I have learned so much from her. We feel so lucky to have had her in our home. If you are looking for someone who brings both professional expertise and a heart of gold, I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you for everything, Luo ah yi! read more

This review is for Luo Ah Yi. She was a great postpartum nanny for our family during the first month after our daughter was born. She made a huge difference during a very busy time. She took full responsibility for our newborn overnight so we could rest, and she also cooked three meals a day for our family. Everything was delicious, varied, took our input into account. Beyond her work ethic, she is warm, kind, and wonderful with children. She was gentle and loving with our newborn and built a sweet bond with our 5-year-old. She was also flexible, easy to work with, and quickly felt like part of our family. We highly recommend her to any chinese-speaking family looking for a postpartum nanny. read more

This review is for Chen Ayi. She is flexible, professional, and went above and beyond for us from day one, helping us grocery shop to ensure our pantry was stocked with the right items. From the moment Chen Ayi stepped into our home, she brought an immediate sense of calm, expertise, and care. When she first arrived, my husband and I were exhausted and struggling to make time to eat well. Within just a couple days, Ayi turned everything around. We were able to catch up on sleep and felt completely rejuvenated and well-nourished with Ayi's care. She taught us much needed skills, from reading cues, to proper burping techniques, bathing, managing diaper rash, and clearing boogers. She also showed us how to engage in fun play and developmental activities. Our daughter is happy and calm with Ayi. When she is managing night feedings and watching her, I can fully relax knowing our daughter is in safe, loving hands. Her cooking is also phenomenal. She has a talent for taking whatever proteins and produce we have on hand and turning them into delicious, deeply comforting, and nourishing meals. We love her food so much that she is teaching us how to make a few of her dishes. We are profoundly grateful for the health, happiness, and peace of mind she has brought to our home. Because of her guidance, we feel confident and equipped to care for our daughter moving forward. We are so lucky to have Chen Ayi's help and highly recommend her! read more

Cao Ayi was an incredible postpartum nanny for our family, and we are so grateful for the support she provided during our first weeks home with our baby. From day one, she took exceptional care of our newborn baby with so much patience, attentiveness, and love. She held our baby for hours on end and always seemed to know exactly what our baby needed, which gave us tremendous peace of mind as first-time parents. Cao Ayi taught us a lot about newborn care. She showed us how to properly feed, burp, bathe, soothe, and establish healthy routines for our baby. She was extremely hard working and would often cut her breaks short to help us when she heard us struggling to soothe our fussy baby. Beyond caring for the baby, Cao Ayi prepared delicious meals tailored for postpartum recovery. At our request she also made traditional Chinese herbal soups to help with my healing. Afterwards she always made sure our kitchen was spotless. We were sad when our time with Cao Ayi came to an end. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a caring and experienced postpartum nanny! read more

I recently gave birth and feel really grateful to have been taken care of by Xie Ah Yi. She's experienced and attentive (to both myself and my daughter) in addition to being a great cook. She catered her dishes to help with my milk supply while keeping my overall postpartum C Section recovery in mind. Absolutely delicious, healthy nourishing meals all the while assisting with household tasks. We really leaned heavily on her when it came to taking care of our girl for the past 2 months and feel really sad our time is coming to an end. Highly recommend her services and will definitely request for her again in the future if we decide to have more children. read more

I' writing this review for Wong Ah Yi. We hired Wang Yuping (Wong Ah Yi) as a postpartum caregiver between April and May 2026. When our family needed help the most, Wong Ah Yi took care of our newborn meticulously every day, prepared delicious meals for our entire family, and ensured that the mother received the best care and sufficient rest during her postpartum period, allowing her to recover comfortably and quickly. For postpartum nutrition, Wong Ah Yi prepared different foods, soups, and stews according to the mother's physical condition. She has many years of experiences taking care of children. She is very skilled in managing a newborn's feeding amounts, ensuring the baby eats well and sleeps well. She also patiently taught us childcare knowledge and shared her experiences. We are very grateful for Wong Ah Yi's care over the past month. She is friendly, talkative and worked well with us. She treated our family like her own. She would occasionally remind the father to eat on time no matter how busy his work is. Our older children also liked her very much. When her postpartum care period ended, we were very reluctant to see her go. We sincerely hope that she has smooth work in the future and remains happy! We highly recommend her! read more

We found Xiao Ayi through Zhou Tai Tai. She was calm and focused, and she adjusted into our home smoothly. Her cooking was one of the highlights. The daily confinement meals and soups were warm, simple, and nourishing. It really helped during recovery not having to think about meals. She also helped with the baby and supported our routine. We appreciated having her during those early weeks. read more

We cannot thank Auntie Luo enough for the incredible support she provided during our first two months as new parents. Her expertise and deep experience allowed us to truly feel relieved and supported during a time that could have been very overwhelming. One of the most impressive things about Auntie Luo is her knowledge. Every time we visited the pediatrician, we realized we had almost no questions because Auntie Luo had already answered them for us and her advice was always identical to the doctor's professional guidance. This gave us so much confidence in her care. Beyond her childcare skills, she is a fantastic cook! We particularly loved her noodles, dumplings, and 餅. As an added bonus, she was very patient in letting me practice my Mandarin with her, which made her feel like part of the family. :) Auntie Luo has a great intuition for when to step in and when to let us take the lead. She was patient while teaching us the ropes, but also knew exactly when to give us space to handle things on our own. Because of her, we became much more confident parents. We felt complete trust leaving our daughter, Mika, in her care whenever we needed to run errands. We miss her already! read more

We were so grateful to have Jian Ayi (also known has Gong Ayi in Cantonese) during the first month of bringing our second child home. She provided the utmost care to our newborn and clearly had extensive experience with babies. She was so helpful taking care of our baby at night and during the day she always took initiative to clean/wash the baby and help the baby with positioning/movements to help with gas movement since our baby was very gassy. She also cooked delicious Cantonese-style meals and soups daily and kept our kitchen very clean. In addition, she was great with our toddler who loved to follow her around to see what she was up to throughout the day. Throughout our time with her, Jian Ayi was extremely professional, provided advice but was never pushy, and was easy to get along with even with my limited Chinese language skills and my husband not speaking Chinese. I highly recommend Jian Ayi for anyone looking for a caring and professional confinement nanny! read more

We were incredibly fortunate to have Zhang A Yi during the first 3 months of our journey with our newborn. Her experience, attentiveness, and proactiveness in taking care of not only everything for the baby but also our home made such a big difference during this crazy time for us. Zhang A Yi is incredibly knowledgeable about newborn care and immediately stepped in to help the moment she arrived, handling everything from feeding and bathing, to soothing him and putting him to bed. Given we're first time parents, she was also very helpful in decoding our son's crying/fussiness for us and provided great tips for taking care of him. In those first few weeks when we were still adjusting, she would oftentimes even cut her afternoon break short to help out, despite us insisting that she rest. It was honestly surprising to us just how quickly we became comfortable with Zhang A Yi and entrusted her with our son's care. She really treated our baby as if he were her own and it was very reassuring to see just how much she genuinely cared about him (and how much he enjoyed being with her as well). There was no shortage of smiles and cooing when Zhang A Yi was practicing tummy time with him or entertaining him with all his toys. In addition to Zhang A Yi being very attentive to our baby, she was also incredibly observant when it came to the day-to-day. She'd proactively clean any dishes that we left out, and on the occasions that we'd take our baby out with us to meet up with friends, we'd come back to a very clean and organized home (even though Zhang A Yi was not at all required to help with this). And as the cherry on top to all this - she's also a fantastic cook. You'd think that over the course of 3 months we'd have gotten through her entire repertoire of dishes, but she continued to surprise us with something new. Mealtime was definitely something we looked forward to every day. We've really enjoyed having Zhang A Yi as part of the family and would highly recommend her to anyone who's looking for a dedicated and warm-hearted nanny to help with taking care of their newborn. read more

This is how a yuesao (confinement nanny) who has been with this agency for over 10 years treated my fragile newborn. I think the video speaks for itself. It is so upsetting. I have so many things to say but the only thing I want parents to know is that I learned that some of these nannies are not professionally trained. In fact, I learned that many uneducated and untrained women are coming to work in USA as a confinement nanny because the pay is so high. As a parent of multiple children, I often wondered why this AYi with X number years of experience doesn't seem to understand how to deal with my baby. She just constantly complained the baby did not sleep well. Only after the AYi left and I took over the care myself, I realized baby had bad reflux so I adjusted her feeding , and she slept much better. I realized these YueSao often works with first time parents (or exhausted second time parents) who may just take the Yuesao's word at face value. That's how she lasted so long. It finally made sense when I hired a formally trained yuesao to come after she left. The first day, the trained AYi listened to the baby drink breast milk and asked if baby had a tongue tie--which she did. The formally trained AYi just knew so much more about actual infant care. My baby was in better hands and did not have such terrible sleeping issues. Despite the lack of formal training , I would have been fine with her if she treated my baby well. But seeing this video , combined with her constant complaining, I just had put a warning out there to other parents. It's just so upsetting because we treated her so well. She has good reviews on here too as well as a decent review from her last family (but it was a first time mom). They insist you to write a review while they're caring for your newborn so of course I gave them a 5 star review. I have since deleted it. After hiring 2 yuesao from Zhou Taitai at different times and now one formally trained yuesao, I now realize that there is a massive differences between the uneducated yuesao and the formally trained ones. Please do your research. The stark contrast with the professional yuesao is just too large to ignore. It doesn't matter if a yuesao claim to have X number years of experience, if they were never properly educated, they will continue doing the wrong thing because no one is supervising their work. The only reason I wrote this review is I do want first time parents to be aware and to do their due diligence. read more

This review is for Ruifang Zhang. She's very caring, nice personality, great cook, and work hard. She helps out with the baby whenever needed, doesn't matter what time of day or night. She change the baby diapers, bath, massages, holding the baby so mom can sleep, and anything you need help with. We feel very safe and at ease when the baby is with her. You can tell she really genuinely care for the baby. The food she cooks are nutritional for postpartum recovery. Would definitely ask for her again if we ever have another baby. read more

My husband and I couldn't be happier with Tang Ah Yi. We were initially very nervous about having a confinement nanny. Our Chinese isn't very good and we have several pets in a small space (large dog and 2 skittish cats). As first-time parents, we were overwhelmed and anxious leaving the hospital, but she arrived the same day and immediately set up, putting our minds at ease. Over her 42-day stay, she seamlessly integrated into our family. Her love for children & animals really helped create a warm, comfortable environment for all of us. It was clear from the beginning that Tang Ahyi was very experienced in childcare and loved children. She took great care of our son and we fully trusted her alone with him. I am not exaggerating when I say that she was always able to calm our son when he was at his most fussiest in 15 seconds max. And by the end of 6 weeks, our son was consistently sleeping 6 hours a night. While baby temperament makes a big difference, we definitely are not getting the same results on our own haha. She called all of this experience, we called it magic! One thing we especially want to highlight is that despite her impressive experience taking care of babies, Tang Ahyi was incredibly understanding and flexible about doing things your way. We always felt respected and heard when we made requests or suggestions. We learned so much and she gave us invaluable advice, which made us feel much more confident as parents. It's easy to panic as new parents, and having an experienced, level-headed person to guide us and reassure us about what's normal vs. what's not really took the guesswork out of the process. We spent less time Googling and more time bonding with our baby. Her cooking was amazing, and we honestly wish we took more photos of the dishes--though we were usually too busy digging in! She made delicious meals ranging from European and American to traditional Chinese dishes. The food was not only tasty but also nutritious, and the whole family looked forward to every meal. We were so sad when our time together came to an end. Postpartum can be a difficult and vulnerable time but thanks to Tang Ahyi, we feel we are navigating it well. We are so grateful to her and wholeheartedly recommend Tang Ahyi to any family looking for a caring, hardworking, and experienced nanny. read more

We were fortunate to have Zhang Ah Yi as our confinement nanny for 6 weeks for our newborn. She was a lifesaver during this joyful but stressful and busy period. The most important thing is that she truly cares about the babies that she looks after. She took excellent care of our newborn son, from feeding, diaper changes, baths, to soothing him, especially overnight. She always had safe practices like no co-sleeping and keeping his bassinet clear which gave us anxious new parents a lot of peace of mind. With Ah Yi, I was able to get a lot more rest overnight which I'm sure helped accelerate my postpartum recovery. Zhang Ah Yi also took care of our 3 meals each day. She has a lot of interest in cooking and actually adapted her cooking style to our Cantonese palette. She was very receptive to food feedback and ideas from our eager grandmother which we really appreciated. She always kept the kitchen and dining areas sparkling clean after each meal. Ah Yi is genuinely so kind and eager to help. She always goes above and beyond, doing things outside of her immediate job description, like handling the laundry or cleaning the common areas. We are so incredibly grateful for Zhang Ah Yi's support and kindness during this time. It made the transition to being new parents so much more doable. We can't imagine doing this without her! We would highly recommend her to the next family. read more

It was so helpful having Wang AiYi care for our second baby. I physically and mentally healed much faster from childbirth this time around due to getting full night's sleep and being supported with nutritious home cooked meals. Wang AiYi also lovingly cared for my baby while I was in hospital for postpartum health issues. read more

Zhang a yi has provided tremendous support during her stay from Jan 2 2026 to Mar 3 2026. Before our nanny started, we were sleep deprived, had no time to cook and were dependent on food deliveries to get by. Everything got better as soon as our nanny started around 1 week of age. In the start, she made sure to familiarize herself with our home which helped everything run smoothly. As first time parents, we really appreciated her guidance on child care. She is attentive and always lets us know if she thinks he may be uncomfortable, and guides us on how we can better hold and care for him, such as how to properly change his diapers. She also advised us on feeding amounts and when to increase his ounces. We also didn't realize that some of our baby items were unsafe and recommended some better alternatives, so this gave us some peace of mind. She has amazing natural instinct and intuition when it comes to caring for children. Sometimes we couldn't figure out why our son is crying and she immediately knows why he is crying and how to soothe him. She can easily calm him down within minutes and our son always looks content in her care. In addition, she cooks nutritional balanced meals on a daily basis including meat, veggies and soup. We always look forward to her delicious cooking! Afterwards she will load the dishwasher and tidy the kitchen which we appreciate. She also cares for our son overnight which helped us get a full night's sleep. She consistently kept us informed of diaper changes, feeding times, and how his night went, including whether he slept well or not. We can't imagine how life would be without her support during our child's first two months. We are incredibly grateful to have her as our nanny and will miss having her around. We only wish we could extend our contract by another month! So if you're looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable nanny who will treat your child well, Zhang a yi is the right choice! read more

We had the incredible privilege of having Jian A Yi for one month after the birth of our baby, and I truly don't know what we would have done without her. Our baby arrived earlier than expected, and we were so grateful that Mrs. Chou and Jian A Yi were able to adjust plans and arrange for her to start early. That flexibility and support in such a stressful moment meant the world to us. From the very first day, she seamlessly integrated into our home and routine, it felt like she had been part of our family forever. Within just a couple of days, she could anticipate our needs before we even had to ask. Her deep knowledge, calm demeanor, and genuine care made our entire postpartum experience feel so supported. Jian A Yi is extremely hardworking. She was always one step ahead prepping meals, cleaning, supporting me with recovery, and caring for the baby, all without ever needing to be asked. She took amazing care of not only our newborn, but also me (the recovering new mom), and even my husband. She helped us navigate everything from feedings to recovery to baby soothing, always with patience and without judgment. Her gentle presence brought peace to a very emotional and tender time. And her cooking is absolutely delicious! Every meal was nourishing, comforting, and exactly what my body needed to heal. We looked forward to every dish. Jian A Yi is truly a gem. She gave us confidence as new parents, and her kindness will stay with us forever. We already miss her so much and would welcome her back in a heartbeat if we have another baby in the future. If you are lucky enough to have a chance to work with her, take it. She is one of a kind. read more

Jian Ahyi was amazing! She was very patient and nurturing to our newborn. She earned our trust very early on as we saw how lovingly she cared for our newborn day after day. She never became flustered or raised her voice. She cooed whenever baby was fussy. I'd have her stay longer if she wasn't so high in demand and already booked for another family! read more

Bringing someone into your home during a big life transition like having your first baby isn't easy. We are so lucky and grateful to have had Chen Ah Yi as our postpartum nanny. We just said goodbye to her and were sad to see her go because she helped us through a very vulnerable time as first time parents. In addition to cooking and helping around the house, Chen Ah Yi helped support us in so many ways. - She's very loving and patient and has a tremendous amount of babycare expertise. We learned a lot from in just four weeks about how to take care of our baby and what our baby likes/ doesn't like. - She prioritized my care as a new mother taking on household chores so that I could rest and recuperate. She handled the evening feeds and diaper changes so we could get uninterrupted sleep. - She's a great cook! And made a full menu of postpartum traditional Chinese dishes to promote health, blood flow, and a good digestive track. Our house was remarkably organized, quiet, and peaceful for the first month of our baby's life. Chen Ah Yi helped make this possible. But most importantly she cared for our baby in way that any loving parent would want to see their baby cared for. We primarily used Google translate to communicate as we don't speak fluent Chinese. It's definitely harder but still doable and worth it. If you have specific requirements around house or babycare, it is best to be upfront and very direct in asking her for changes and may take a couple reminders to bridge the language gap. read more

I've known Mrs. Zhou for more than 10 years. She helped with both of my children, and several of my close friends were also referred by her. Over the years, I've seen how consistently she works and how much she cares about the families she supports. She has extensive experience, is responsible, and maintains clear standards in her placements. I would absolutely continue to recommend her to anyone looking for reliable postpartum support. read more

We were referred to Yoyo a yi and she was wonderful!! It's so clear she loves babies and both our newborn and toddler loved her. She helped us get into a good rhythm especially with feeds and sleep and always seemed to know what our newborn needed. She also really prioritizes helping me/mom with recovery including getting enough sleep, eating nutritious meals, and helping with lactation. Her cooking is fantastic! She makes a huge variety of foods and was able to accommodate every request. Our toddler is a picky eater and she went above and beyond to help him try new foods too! read more

I was introduced to Zhou Tai Tai through a coworker and recommend Xie Ah Yi as a postpartum nanny. She stayed with our family for two months after the birth of our second child, and we are incredibly grateful for the care, support, and expertise she provided. Our baby was born at 35 weeks and with Xie Ah Yi's attentive care, he went from 0 percentile to 60th percentile by his two-month check-up. With over a decade of postpartum nanny experience, she was familiar with all safe baby practices. I always felt comfortable when she was watching baby. In addition to caring for our newborn, Xie Ah Yi cooked delicious, nourishing meals for the whole family. Even our picky two-year-old enjoyed his food! She was a chef in Chengdu China so she specializes in spicy Sichuan cuisine and was able to tailor her cooking to fit my Cantonese palette when I craved home cooking. The most beneficial part of having a postpartum nanny for me was having someone awake with me during night feedings and someone to talk to throughout the day. Although I mainly spoke Cantonese, I was able to communicate with broken Mandarin and Google translate. It made a meaningful difference to my mental health while my husband went back to work. Plus, I think my Mandarin improved immensely! We feel truly fortunate to have had her with us during those critical early weeks. I would not hesitate to recommend Xie Ah Yi to any family looking for expert, compassionate postpartum support. read more

Zhang Ahyi joined our family just two days after I returned home with my second daughter and stayed with us until my daughter was two months old. From the very beginning, she was proactive, attentive, and eager to help. Even though we encouraged her to rest initially, she was keen to familiarize herself with our home. She quickly learned where the baby's room was, where the baby's clothes were kept, and how the diaper-changing station was organized. She then familiarized herself with the kitchen and how everything worked. Ahyi took great initiative in caring for our household. She wanted to go grocery shopping right away and cooked delicious vegetarian Chinese food for us. We are a vegetarian household, and she adjusted completely to vegetarian cooking for the entire two months. She genuinely enjoyed cooking and feeding our family and often made extra food so my husband and older daughter could enjoy it as well. She ensured the kitchen was always clean and well organized. Without being asked, she noticed that every evening there were dishes from my older daughter's school lunch and began washing them regularly. She also washed any other dishes left in the sink. Every morning, she would wake up early, prepare breakfast for me, and unload the dishwasher. She was very efficient in the kitchen and mindful not to occupy it for long, which made it easy for us to share the space when we cooked Indian food. Since we eat rice frequently, she made sure there was always fresh rice available. She also helped with our family's laundry in addition to the baby's laundry, even though we had not asked her to do so. Ahyi was extremely observant and thoughtful. If she saw tasks we were doing that she could help with, she would ask us to show her how, and from then on she would take care of them independently. Most importantly, she took excellent care of my newborn daughter. She handled all baby-related tasks, including diaper changes, changing clothes, bottle feeding, putting the baby to sleep, and soothing her. Newborns need to be held often, and she never hesitated. I exclusively breastfed my baby, and we developed a smooth routine where I would nurse the baby and Ahyi would burp her, give her tummy time, or put her back to sleep. Her support was especially invaluable at night. Even though the baby slept in my room, Ahyi would wake up every time the baby did, check whether I planned to feed her, and then take over afterward. She would change the diaper if needed and gently put the baby back to sleep in the bassinet. This allowed me to get much-needed rest during the night. She was always open to suggestions and willingly accommodated any feedback. With Ahyi at home, I did not have to worry about managing the household, which greatly supported my mental health during the postpartum period. I felt completely comfortable leaving my baby in her care when I needed to pick up my older daughter from school. While I deeply appreciate all the help she provided with the baby, I am most grateful for the care and support she gave me during this vulnerable time. I was very sad when her contract ended. We are still in touch, and she continues to visit us whenever she gets the chance. I wholeheartedly recommend Zhang Ahyi to any family looking for a caring, responsible, and dedicated nanny. read more

Yang AYi came to stay with us for just over a month to primarily watch my 18 month old daughter while I had severe morning sickness and food aversions. Her cooking was a life saver, as I was sick constantly before she arrived, but my nausea subsided greatly once because she prepared dishes that I could eat. My older kids (ages 4 and 6) also enjoyed her cooking and ate more vegetables than they usually do. Yang AYi kept my toddler safe, clean, warm, and happy. AYi had a nice and calm disposition even though my toddler is in a very fussy and frustrating development stage. My older kids appreciated being occasionally watched by AYi and also the freedom it afforded me to take the older kids to various outings since AYi was watching the toddler at home. At my request, AYi took my daughter outside during good weather and went for walks around the neighborhood as well. AYi kept a clean and tidy home and kitchen, I greatly appreciate her help to our family during a critical time and I would recommend her to anyone looking for live-in help. read more

I can't recommend Yang A Yi enough! She was with our family for 30 days, and as a second-time mom with a toddler running around, I don't know how I would have managed without her. Our toddler absolutely adored having A Yi around, and because of her, I was able to spend much-needed quality time with my toddler while she took excellent care of our newborn. Thanks to A Yi, we were able to get restful sleep at night knowing our baby was in great hands. On top of that, she cooked for us every day, and her meals were absolutely delicious! We're truly grateful for all the help she provided during such an important time for our family. It's hard to say goodbye, and we'll miss her presence in our home as she moves on to help another family. If you're looking for a loving, skilled, and caring nanny, I wholeheartedly recommend Yang A Yi! read more

We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Yang A Yi support us as we welcomed our first child. From the very start, she took such great care of our baby as if he truly was her own. My husband and I felt so at ease with her around. We knew he was in great hands with the way she listened to us and genuinely cared for our baby. She was so nurturing and patient with him. We learnt so much about newborn care from her. Due to her presence and support, my postpartum recovery felt so easy and smooth because I was able to get so much needed rest and eat such delicious meals. Yang A Yi made so many incredible dishes that were not only amazing but beneficial to my recovery and milk supply. She was also very thoughtful in cooking with ingredients that we liked. We discovered so many new favorite dishes and cooking tips through our times with her. She was so sweet, making us a stash of frozen wontons and dumplings before she left us to take care of her next family. My husband did have to communicate with her via Google Translate since he didn't speak Mandarin but never once have the interactions felt awkward. She made the newborn phase completely stress-free for us and it was super sad to say goodbye to her since she truly felt like a family member. We loved having her around and we are already missing her so much. We will forever be grateful to her. Having her around as our nanny was an amazing experience. read more

We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Xiao Ah Yi care for our little one. She is truly one of a kind--hardworking to the core, often sacrificing her own break time to ensure our baby is well cared for. What we appreciate most is that she genuinely wants the best for our child, never hesitating to share her wisdom when she sees a better way, which we deeply respect. Beyond her dedication, Xiao Ah Yi's upbeat and positive personality was a huge source of comfort during my postpartum journey. I looked forward to our morning chats, and she brought structure and routine to my day in the most effortless way. She's also hilarious--my husband and I found ourselves regularly chuckling in her company. And let's talk about her cooking! With her background in the restaurant industry, every meal she prepared was nothing short of restaurant-quality. Her nourishing soups worked wonders for my milk supply, and our baby's thriving growth (from the 15th to the 50th percentile in two months!) speaks volumes. Most importantly, our baby absolutely adores her. The toothless grins and beaming face whenever she sees Xiao Ah Yi say it all--she has a true gift and passion for caring for little ones. We couldn't have asked for a better nanny and will always be grateful for her love, care, and laughter in our home. Thank you so much to Mrs. Zhou for placing such an amazing Xiao Ah Yi for us. Mrs. Zhou was very transparent throughout the entire placement process and answered all of our questions promptly. She even helped us find an Ah Yi last minute to take care of my baby when she came 10 days early. Thank you Mrs. Zhou! read more

We were incredibly lucky to have Xiao ayi stay with us for two months. She made the transition into parenthood smooth and enjoyable and we could not have done it without her. Her positive energy and competence made even the hardest days (ie: days with endless crying) manageable. She cooked three delicious meals every day and adjusted to our tastes/preferences easily. This was especially helpful for recovery and energy in the early postpartum days, and was one fewer thing we had to worry about every day. Most importantly, we fully trusted her with our baby. She took excellent care of her over night and when we went out to run errands or go to dinners. She clearly loves babies and taught us a ton about how to care for our daughter, while always respecting our choices and decisions. We cannot recommend Xiao ayi and this service run by Zhou tai tai highly enough! read more

Lyu ayi is flexible, willing to accommodate our requests. She is easy to talk to and I've enjoyed her fun-loving energy as well. Lyu ayi is very patient and gentle with our baby boy. She has a great understanding of baby's needs and is loving, nurturing, and responsive to him. Some examples are she makes sure he gets measured daily sun exposure, washes his little butt clean after especially big poops. He does not burp easily after feedings, and one night ayi returned from break and said she has been thinking about how best to burp him and came up with a strategy going forward. Most importantly, baby likes Lyu ayi and I can see their bond. He always looks very comfortable and safe in ayi's warm care. read more

Xie Ah Yi was fantastic! My wife, toddler, and I enjoyed her food a lot. Every meal consisted of a soup, veggie, and protein dish. With the consistent food and soup to help with milk production, my wife ended up producing so much milk we now have 40+ bags of pumped milk in the freezer. Along with being a great cook, Xie Ah Yi was great with my newborn son. She would wash his bottom with warm water a few times a day to make sure he is clean. She was also really diligent with the night feedings. (Great she was able to download and use the same feed/poo tracking app) At the end of her stay our son went from 5lbs to 8lbs! The pediatricians were all impressed by his weight gain. If I can turn back time I would have hired Xie Ah Yi for our first born as well. I highly recommend for expecting parents! read more

As first time parents, my husband and I were looking for a postpartum nanny to show us how it's done; my mother-in-law put us in touch with Zhou Ah Yi who asked us if we were looking for anything specific in a nanny (parenting style, cooking style, etc). She was very thorough, responsive, and organized. Imagine pairing clients with nannies while not being able to anticipate the day the baby will actually be born! We were open-minded and flexible, so we were happy to be paired with Li Ah Yi after our phone interview. Big surprise, our baby was born 2 weeks early so Li Ah Yi was still with her previous client (I believe you can choose between 26 days and 30 days if you're opting for the traditional confinement period). Zhou Ah Yi kept us updated as she looked for a new nanny; we initially had to wait a week but she found someone who can start 2 days after we got home from the hospital - Xiao Ah Yi! We're so grateful for her during this 26 day period; she always made sure we were happy with what she cooked us (which was delicious - broth for every meal for more milk supply) and reassured us on any worries we had with our baby. She wasn't strict on my intake of herbal medicine or going outside as the confinement period usually calls for, and she practically taught us everything she knew to care for our baby after she's gone. She went above and beyond to ensure we had the rest we needed, like feeding or watching the baby so we could go on a walk or sacrificing her own break time. She doted on our baby as if she were her own, and it was easy to put our full trust in her. It also helps a lot that we don't have a language barrier; she only speaks Mandarin and we were able to understand and engage with her. I would not hesitate to recommend Xiao Ah Yi and Zhou Ah Yi for your postpartum needs; it's truly a delicate time for mom and I appreciate everything Xiao Ah Yi has done for our family so we can enter parenthood with more confidence. 蕭阿姨的到來，無微不至地照顧我們的新生小baby又教會我們如何處理初為人父母的手忙腳亂，每天又煮出有媽媽味道的美味佳餚，真是謝謝周太太安排這麼棒的阿姨來幫助我們！ read more

A month before our 2nd child was born, we were searching for a Chinese confinement nanny. Mrs. Zhou was very helpful and matched us with Huang Ah Yi, and the end-to-end process was seamless. Huang Ah, Yi was a godsend in supporting my wife in her recovery and tending to the demands of our newborn. Our "Yuesao" joined us immediately once we left the hospital. Huang Ah Yi brought her experience of helping over 200 mothers through a traditional Chinese approach to postpartum recovery, and we felt the difference between having a "yuesao" vs. "nanny." Brownie points out that this gave me full recovery and time to spend with our daughter during this significant transitional period for the family. We highly recommend Chinese Postpartum Confinement and recommend that any mother looking for a month of Yuesao to contact them. read more

We had a wonderful experience with Lyu A yi. She was incredibly loving and attentive to our baby. We felt a great deal of trust leaving her in Lyu A yi's care, and that allowed us to enjoy valuable moments of alone time even as new parents. Lyu A yi is also an excellent cook - I can't think of a single dish we didn't love (a few samples are attached). My postpartum experience was so much more restful and restorative thanks to Lyu A yi, and my family and I are truly grateful to have had her help! read more

Zhang Ayi wasn't the nanny we originally interviewed, but Mrs Chou was able to find a replacement right away after our original Ayi fell sick. She was an absolute lifesaver during our postpartum journey. She has an amazing work ethic, even offering to take care of the newborn during her break so the mom can get more rest. She prepared nutritious, healing meals every day that boosted our recovery and energy. Her knowledge of traditional confinement practices blended seamlessly with modern parenting tips, which gave me the best of both worlds. She maintained a clean, peaceful environment and was always proactive in helping with household tasks. Beyond the practical help, Zhang Ayi was a warm and compassionate companion, offering encouragement and guidance whenever I needed it. read more

For our second child, my husband and I decided we wanted to hire a yue sao or nanny to help us out. We are so glad that we found Zhou Tai Tai's agency. Zhou Tai Tai put us in touch with a couple of yue saos so that we could interview them to see which one would be a good fit for our family. We ended up hiring Qiu Aiyi for 3 months. Qiu Aiyi was amazing. She was super hardworking and helpful. We really wish we had signed a longer contract with her. During the time that Qiu Aiyi was with us she cooked us delicious meals, helped with light tidying up of the house, kept our kitchen super clean, and took great care of our baby. She took care of the baby at night, which was super helpful for me to get plenty of rest at night. She would also bathe our baby, take the baby out on walks, wash the baby's butt for diaper changes, and basically went above and beyond for us. I would highly recommend Zhou Tai Tai's agency, specifically Qiu Aiyi, if you're looking for someone super reliable to help you take care of your baby for the first couple of months. read more
