Confinement Lady / Nanny (Auntie L)

This page is for anyone who wants to hire a confinement lady or short term nanny, especially for twins mother whom have high risk of pre-mature babies, or babies whom born with illness.


I didn't manage to book her as my confinement lady. Both my confinement ladies have no experience in handling twins. Towards the end of my confinement, I broke down in hospital with my sick twins, very tired of  taking care of twins round the clock for 20 days, eventually I have to beg my confinement lady to stay at hospital taking care of my twins a few hours a day so that I can be release and have few hours for uninterrupted sleep at home. Later when I knew auntie L,  I  realize she had help many mummies take care of their babies in hospital many years ago.

She works for me as stay-in nanny for one month in my twins 3rd month. She put my twins sleep through the night in a week. She diligently bring my babies for sun bath every day which helps to resolve my babies skin problems, especially the rashes on cheeks and private parts, without applying any cream prescribed by doctor. I was about to give up breast milk as no matter how hard I tried, I
only managed to pump out very little milk, 10ml a day. She encourages me continue pumping, never give up, reminding me that my milk is the best thing for my twins' wellness especially they have holes in their hearts. Moreover, she said breast milk can help baby gain weight ( since mine are pre-mature under weight) , resolve constipation, also it helps them to clean the white spots on their tongue.

When she was with me, I manage to have some free time. My babies routine is sleep, milk, burp, then sleep again. Unlike the previous month nanny, she stayed awake at night to care for my babies and I have to let her take nap for 2-3 hours in the afternoon. Auntie L didn't take nap longer than one hour, as she didn't have to stay awake during night time since my twins sleep through the night.
Sometimes in the afternoon, we even spend time to make pau...haha, not bad huh, two full time twin carers able to accomplish so much, baby sitting, house work, cooking 3 meals plus baking. Sometimes I go out whole afternoon & let her manage the twins, my twins sleep about 2-3 hours in the afternoon, when I return, she usually already finish all the house work ( wipe the fans, mop the floor & etc. ).  It was then that I told myself, why not I try handle my twins alone without helper, since Auntie L can do it, why not me.....?
