Summary of the Complaint

#1. A mother fired confinement nanny Wu Xue Hua after just nine days due to her dirty habits (touching bottle teats with fingers, uncleanliness with meals), laziness, and argumentative attitude. The nanny also charged a high, non-negotiable fee.

Full Complaint Details

1. DO NOT engage this CL

Name :吴雪华 016-678 2567,from Banting.

She only work for me for 9 days. She is very dirty and lazy. Quarrel with my mother when my mother caught her do dirty thing with my meal. She use her finger to touch the teat of the milk bottle while shaking the milk. She is also very stubborn and have attitude problem when I request her to do those thing in my way. And many more other bad thing she did. As a conclusion, DO NOT engage her. She is charging RM3500-3800 + ang pow RM200 (fix). Too bad, i do not have her photo.

2. Name : Hou Foong Ying , h/p no. is 016 615 8631016 615 8631 and 012 919 3181012 919 3181

(don't knw exact spelling but her photos are uploaded on TBAN's file udr "BAD CL (PHOTOS) - PLS DO NOT HIRE") and her and she lives near McD's in PJ Old Town. She sells zhong and nian gao in PJ Old Town area as well.

Am very worried that this confinement lady (CL) will claim her next victim. Baby was sick with running & blocked nose, cold and fever as baby got these passed on to her by CL (CL was coughing non-stop and sneezing continuously plus denied vehemently that she is sick since she is extremely selfish and want the money - she also discouraged us from seeking medical help for baby since she is afraid this will affect her confinement lady livelihood). By right, CLs should discharge themselves voluntarily upon being sick. In this regard, CL lied to us about her age and health record in order to lead us to hiring her.

She has extremely bad hygiene habits of never sterilizing feeding bottles, not washing her hands after urinating & straightaway feed baby. Oso feed baby aftr changing baby's diapers without washing her hands first. Insisted dat the baby's mother do nite care for baby at nite since CL has high blood pressure and cholestrol (these she never disclose when hiring her). When baby's mother refused, CL spitefully brought crying baby to me, put her on my bed to change diapers and bottle feed her. CL oso very stupid as she did not even know how to put on adaptor rings to Philips Avent bottles, causing the bottles to leak all over baby and baby did not have enuf to drink and was drenched wet! Oso harassed me at nite to switch on the lites for her at nite when baby cries and forced me to let baby latch on at nite so CL can rest, even tho CL very well knows that baby did not want to latch on mommy's breast. CL is very unpleasant, so rude, sarcastic and complains non-stop about baby being very "ma fan" and disrupting her sleep at nite. Oso loves playing politics by bad mouthing me in front of my hubby and mom-in-law. Finds all sorts of excuses for baby not to wear cloth diapers and CL refuses to boil any herbs or water for me to bathe, even when she knows i have undergone c-section. Beware of her trying to make money by accusing you and putting words in your mouth, saying you promised to buy 28 bottles of white wine at RM28 each when you never did. Becos i refused to buy, then she made things difficult for me during my confinement and even scolded me in front of my mom, husband and mother-in-law. Also asked my relatives to buy foot-washing services from her friend.

What was really appaling was she refused to feed or change diapers for baby and just only wanted the easy way out by forcing the pacifier into baby's mouth! Baby actually had blocked nose, so found it hard to sleep at nite so in order to make baby quiet and to save herself trouble, she force fed baby with formula milk until baby had indigestion problems! Also bad-mouthed baby, saying she was difficult to take care of when actually, baby was sick becos of d flu she got from CL, of which CL very well knows!

CL has very bad cooking skills and use all sorts of excuses to avoid cooking simple dishes like papaya fish soup, inconsistent with her claims of being pro-breastfeeding indeed.

Also had the cheek to steal 4 days from us by claiming that her 28 days tenure end automatically on the day the full moon party is held even though it is just only 24 days!!! We of course insisted that she finish her tenure by saying that she was invited to full moon party by courtesy and should not use this as an excuse to cheat people! Plus, on the first day she arrived, it was already very late evening and she was so calculative by telling us she wants to go back home early morning on the 28th day!

Tried stealing my expensive Eu Yan Sang herbs and thank goodness I told her and stopped her from doing this. CL is also greta at stealing employers' time as she spent most of her time talking on the phone with her friends and getting more businesses - she even told me to take care of baby while she spends her time on the phone! In one of her conversations on the phone, turns out she made the baby of another person sick and when he complained, she audaciously said that there is nothing he can do to her since she is already gone now!
