Let\u2019s be honest, you\u2019ll definitely require plenty of support and help in the first month after delivery. If you\u2019re a first-time mummy, chances are, you\u2019ve heard about confinement nanny services in Singapore. In a nutshell, confinement nannies are hired to guide new mothers in taking care and nursing newborns. They also take care of mummies too1 These nannies are armed with time treasured knowledge of cooking nutritious foods and have years of experience in handling a child. Most confinement nannies can also stay in your home during the confinement period and some even do basic cleaning of the house.<\/p>\n

Couples choose to hire a stay-in confinement nanny for the recommended 28 days although you can hire them for a shorter period or on a part-time basis. Full-time, stay-in nannies will obviously cost more. Coupled with that, since many of the nannies are Malaysians, you\u2019d have to factor in a levy charge and application for a work permit.<\/p>\n

*The rates included are for full-time, stay-in\/stay-out confinement nannies for 28 days. Be sure to enquire with the agencies if you require more information.<\/em><\/p>\n
