Elaine Teng was my confinement lady in October last year and i highly recommend her! This vibrant lady from Ipoh had experience not only in traditional but also western confinement regime (she worked in UK for a couple of years). If interested, she can be contacted @ 84248363
1) those naggy type...like cannot bath etc or like if I wan bath then she will just help me boil the water n prepare stuff
She is definitely not the naggy type and would give advices as per confinement tradition but would seek my opinion/approval before doing anything i.e. my comfort level. Her main focus is on Mummy & Baby and will prepare things way in advance in a timely manner. Constantly watching out for me even though she is with baby, am amazed of her efficiency. She will take note of the time i pump, and plan her duties accordingly e.g. the herbal shower before i pump as it will aid in increasing supply; once i finish pumping, she would have laid the table and a sumptous meal awaits me.
2) into breastfeeding? I won't be going for prenatal class...I will just learn everything from the confinement lady
She has very good knowleged with breastfeeding and even guide with my "Milk Management" Kept encouraging me even though Im clueless as a firt-time mother e.g. guided me with latching positions, explored various menu/milk booster. When i was too tired in the night, she suggested that i just have a rest and maintained the 3 hourly feedings.
3) wat does she cook? I m veri choosy with food...can I choose to eat onli certain dishes
She is a fantastic cook and i simply love her Western Cuisine. She makes sure i have a hearty breakfast to kick-start the day e.g. Avocado Croissant, Cheese & Egg Sandwich. Elaine also seeks my MIL's opinion the night before and discuss the menu for the next day. Her passion with cooking really makes me looking forward to every meal!
4) hygiene level?[/QUOTE]
She is particular about hygiene and even took upon herself to train my new helper.
*Note: Even after she had left us after my confinement, she still offer advises whenever we need it. Oh did i mention that she speaks good English
