For new mothers nationwide, the challenges of adjusting to life after a baby can feel overwhelming. However, following the traditional Chinese practice of “postpartum confinement” or “sitting the month” offers significant benefits to both mother and child’s well-being. As a leading provider of Chinese postpartum nannies, also known as “Yuesao,” My Asian Nanny aims to help ease modern American families’ transition through culturally informed care based on centuries of wisdom.
The Chinese postpartum period, called “Zuo Yuezi,” lasts 30 days. During this critical time, mothers undergo immense physical, emotional, and spiritual changes after giving birth. The traditional practice emphasizes rest, good nutrition, and herbal remedies to support recovery. “Our bodies are extremely fragile after experiencing the substantial blood loss of childbirth,” explains Stephanie, the founder of My Asian Nanny. “A Chinese postpartum nanny ensures new mothers avoid exhaustion through her attentive services so their qi (energy) and blood can replenish.“
My Asian Nanny’s specialized postpartum nannies, offer 24/7 childcare assistance so new mothers can focus solely on healing. Nannies also prepare nutritious meals focused on producing breast milk and treating common newborn issues. “A postpartum nanny makes the transition less stressful for the whole family. Mothers relax in good hands while bonding closely with their babies.” Added Stephanie.
