Hello Mummies ,

I'm a second time mum looking for good confinement lady. EDD in October so a bit worried now. Had not used confinement lady previously, hence, not sure if confinement lady is necessary for night as well. Appreciate advices, please.

Could anyone share the contacts and your experience of any good confinement lady, their rates (any other charges), Singaporean/ Malaysian and the work they cover? Is it necessary to use confinement lady for full 2 months?

I've heard of those that will go market and cook food based on your instructions, hence if I also don't know what confinement food to take, then it will only be normal foodfare. Also, do the confinement lady had to sleep in the same room as the baby? Is an face-to-face interview and a deposit always required? I'm so sorry for asking lots of qns ...

Any enlightenment is much appreciated.

Thanks a lot,
worrying mum

Hi

I thought i share this ...

I just finished my confiment and had a very good confirment lady (Aunty Yue Fen).

I even extended her for 2 more weeks.

This is my second child, my first child i engaged a CFL as well but it was a terrible experience. Hence, this time i was also skeptical when i was recommended to this CF aunty.

So i was extremely glad that i had this aunty this time round.

She has many years of experience, very patient and loving with my daughter. First few days she is with me, she takes the time to observe my daughter to see how she can best take care of her, and she learns very fast. She cooks very yummy food (my first confirment i had horrible food and i didnt know confirment food can actually taste nice ...) and most important my family all like her very much and she is hygenic!

She has a very pleasent character, very helpful and responsible. when looking after baby, she doesnt on her hp or pick her hp so that she wont be distracted.

If any one is interested you can contact her at 65 8375 6048 (SG) or her house at 0207-6522606 (MSA). (but as i say if she is looking after baby her hp might be off or she doesnt pick up, so you might want to leave a message instead so that she can revert)

Cheers!

My confinement lady (Aunty Siew Fong) is very good. She is very experienced and very compassionate to teach and share her experience with us.

She is pleasant, honest, responsible. She also handles my new born very well. What I like about her is she constantly spend time talking and singing to my newborn. My newborn just love her.

She cooks very yummy food for me and husband.

In addition, I am a clean-freak. She is also clean and neat and help us with the housework.

I extended her for 1 more month after the confinement. She told me that she also does part-time babysitting in between of confinement jobs for parents who plan for a gateaway.

If anyone interested, you can contact her directly 82088600 (Aunty Siew Fong)

Hi Serana
Thaks for recommending your CL. I'm trying to contact Aunty Yue Fen. To call her number in Malaysia, do i include 02 in front?
May i also ask if she is knowledgeable about breastfeeding? Heard that some confinement ladies although may be good in cooking confinement food, caring for baby, etc but not well versed when it comes to breastfeeding problems, such as, baby can't latch on, etc...Or they very simply tell the parents to feed baby formula straightaway. What about Aunty Yue Fen?

Pls advise, thanks a lot!

Most confinement nannies doesn't know much about breastfeeding. My horrible confinement nanny even asked me to let my baby suck my nipple as a pacifier so that he can fall asleep faster (so that she has free time to chit chat on her handphone).

If you need help on latch-on or any other breastfeeding matters, i would advise you to seek help from a lactation consultant in a hospital (KK hospital, Thomson Medical).

Hi, I have ever engauged two differrent confinement lady for my 2nd 3rd child. They sang the same song and discouraged me from breastfeeding by telling me that baby would not be fed well during the night (she claim breast milk is not thik as compare to formual mild) as such the baby will wake up almost every one or two hours. The real reason is actually the CL did not want to wake up so frequently at nite to care for the baby. Luckily I did not take their advise and I breastfeed my baby day and night. Due to my persistent I managed to total breast feed my baby for about 15 months even though I am a full time working mother. Good luck.

Wow, thanks for your input, janejbr and Michelle!

Ya, i was thinking it may not be realistic to expect the CL to know everything as well. So consulting with lactation specialists on breastfeeding concerns may be a better option while CL takes care of the other needs during confinement.

Take my hat off you janejbr for being able to keep up w full breastfeeding for 15 mths while being a full time mummy!
