Hello,
I'm recalling my experience with Zhen Jie (CL hired from Bliss Confinement.) It was indeed rewarding. Ignore all those horror stories you have heard and confinement period can be very a good experience too when u've engaged the right help.
We have intended to let my MIL to do the confinement for me during my confinement and she finally give up one week into my confinement period which I was also very relieve too :> Therefore, we've engaged from our backup... which is nannies from Bliss Confinement.
Zhen Jie was recommended by the agent - May to me when we approached her for help (before my MIL offered her help) but we were not sure to engage their services yet too. I am touched by her sincerity to help us when she offered help to 'reserved' Zhen Jie in case i need it last min or needed replacement. And she really make her promise come true! Zhen was brought into our family on my 8th confinement day. Zhen was a very open-minded person, age abt 47yrs and does insist doing confinement her ways, instead she gave me advise regarding confinement needs and she was very hygenic when handling my infant and we notice she's very particular abt hygenie in food handling in kitchen too. Being a first time mum, she was all the help i could ask for and she didn't give me any stress at all and when I needed help on increasing my BM, she gave me tips on the type of confinement food i should take in b'fast and lunch in particularly and not only the 'fish-head' papaya sp....and we even took up Bliss Confinement herb package last minute b'cos my MIL didn't bought any and she did it her style (w/o red date & logan tea or even any herbal bath) and finall everything was put in place at last! And my hubby finally noticed I'm looking forward to the daily tonic time ~9pm (which was simply delicious!) He, too was also relieved off alot of stress and errands too...
Zhen help us on the following:
1.24hrs infant & mummy care
2.doing household chores including daily kitchen care
3.cooking daily tonic (me)
4.does daddy's laundry & meals
5.cooks b'fast, lunch, dessert, tea, dinner, tonic and supper
6.teaches my new maid infant handling skills & hygenie practise
Zhen would let my hubby know the ingredients in advance and we do one a week scheduled marketing and on my 14th confinement day my hubby told me even my MIL was praising Zhen and in all smiles when she saw us handling it so smoothly... finally i am too pleased with her performance & I extended my confinement period for another week.
I just wanted to share this valuable & rewarding experience to all mummies who r still considering in engaging help to decide...
