Elaine Teng's Confinement Nanny Service – Sep 2, 2026, Singapore

I recently took on a short-notice job, lasting only 19 days, which was recommended by a previous client. Initially, I found it quite challenging as the grandmother was very particular and demanding, often instructing me on what to do and how to cook for the nursing mother. I felt undervalued and uncertain about my abilities as a confinement nanny. However, after discussing my concerns with the nursing mother, I felt better as she advised me to politely disregard her mother's excessive requests. Ultimately, we had a positive outcome, thanks to the nursing mother's understanding and kindness.
