• 我是家住旧金山东湾帕洛阿托的宝宝爸爸，我家于2025年8月3日下午16:59喜得6斤9两的大胖小子一枚，7月4日月嫂孟阿姨如约来我家照顾老婆和孩子的月子，在这26天的生活中，她的专业度和敬业精神深深感动了我和我的家人，我仅此代表全家对她表示感谢，并附上我对她的工作的个人评价以供大家参考。

    我们是2025年5月23日经过多轮面试，最终确定选用孟阿姨阿姨作为我老婆和孩子的月嫂，并与她所在的美国月嫂公司签署的正式服务合同。初步定于2025年6月23日（预产期）左右入户，但由于孩子迟迟没有动静，直至7月3日孩子才正常顺产成功，月嫂孟阿姨耐心等待了10天，没有因此申请变更雇主，于7月4日来我家进行产后护理。 

    I am a father living in Palo Alto, in the East Bay of San Francisco. My family welcomed a healthy baby boy weighing 6 pounds and 9 ounces on August 3rd, 2025, at 4:59 PM.  On July 4th, Auntie Meng, our postpartum caregiver, arrived as scheduled to care for my wife and child during the postpartum period.  During these 26 days, her professionalism and dedication deeply impressed me and my family. I would like to express my gratitude to her on behalf of my entire family and provide my personal evaluation of her work for your reference.

    We selected Auntie Meng as our postpartum caregiver after multiple rounds of interviews on May 23rd, 2025, and signed a formal service contract with her agency in the United States. She was initially scheduled to start around June 23rd, 2025 (the due date), but because the baby was late, she patiently waited 10 days until the baby was successfully delivered naturally on July 3rd. She did not request a change of employer and arrived at our home on July 4th to provide postpartum care.

    >时间观念强 

    考虑到老婆孩子出院与月嫂入户合理衔接，我特提前通知孟阿姨所在公司，她提前到达我家楼下等待我们从医院回家，顺利做好从医院到家护理的衔接。 

    >对于宝妈 

    由于宝妈第一次生孩子什么都怕，孟阿姨通过与宝妈的耐心沟通帮助宝妈消除心理顾虑，很好的化解宝妈的产后抑郁；同时为宝妈做定期催乳护理和按摩（宝妈有段时间乳房出现堵奶，确实增加了护理难度和不少的工作量）。 

    >对于宝宝 

    开始几天晚上基本上没怎么睡觉，宝宝一有动静孟阿姨就第一时间起来照顾宝宝，宝宝基本未出现过因为饥饿之外等不舒服因素的哭声，经过一段时间的护理，宝宝基本适应了阿姨的护理，每次基本一哄就好，吃饱后给宝宝拍嗝按摩护理，宝宝每次都能很舒服的入睡。 

    >Strong Sense of Time Management

    Considering the need for a smooth transition between my wife and child's discharge from the hospital and the arrival of the postpartum caregiver, I notified Ms. Meng's company in advance. She arrived at our building ahead of time and waited for us to return from the hospital, ensuring a seamless transition of care from the hospital to home.

    >For the Mother

    Since this was the mother's first child and she was anxious about everything, Ms. Meng patiently communicated with her, helping to alleviate her psychological concerns and effectively managing her postpartum depression. She also provided regular lactation care and massage (the mother experienced blocked milk ducts for a period, which significantly increased the difficulty and workload of the care).

    >For the Baby

    For the first few nights, Ms. Meng barely slept.  Whenever the baby made a sound, she would immediately get up to care for him. The baby rarely cried due to discomfort other than hunger. After a period of care, the baby adapted well to Ms. Meng's care, and she could easily soothe him. After feeding, she would burp and massage the baby, and he would always fall asleep comfortably.

    >对于老人 

    能够理解宝妈和宝爸双方家长疼爱小宝的心理，在严格的监督的同时，耐心讲解沟通，保证所有与宝宝接触人与物的干净卫生，较好的避免的细菌传播的同时，耐心传授正确的护理方法。 

    >对于宝爸 

    我需特别的感谢，是孟阿姨帮我化解了多次和宝妈的争吵（宝妈产后的性情确实变化很大，也许是产后抑郁的初期表现吧），避免了宝爸的”抑郁”的发生；同时又对月子餐的食材的品质和选型，宝宝哺乳器具的选型给出很好的建议，避免了宝爸不必要的重复工作。 

    在此特别需要指出，宝宝出生3天就怀疑鼻泪管堵塞造成眼屎增多，特开车前往儿研所2次检查；而孟阿姨又有先天晕车症状，依然坚持陪同前往，临近医院由于晕车严重，她下车跑步至医院陪同宝宝就诊，事后乘坐地铁返回我家，不得不让我对她的敬业感动。 

    >For the elderly:

    We understand the love and care that both sets of grandparents have for the baby.  While maintaining strict supervision, we patiently explain and communicate, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of all people and objects that come into contact with the baby, effectively preventing the spread of bacteria, and patiently teaching the correct care methods.

    >For the father:

    I need to express my special gratitude to Aunt Meng. She helped me resolve several arguments with my wife (my wife's temperament changed significantly after childbirth, perhaps it was an early sign of postpartum depression), preventing me from becoming "depressed" myself.  She also provided excellent advice on the quality and selection of ingredients for postpartum meals and baby feeding equipment, saving me from unnecessary repetitive work.

    I must specifically mention that when the baby was suspected of having a blocked tear duct causing excessive eye discharge three days after birth, we drove to the Children's Hospital twice for examinations.  Despite Aunt Meng's congenital motion sickness, she insisted on accompanying us.  Near the hospital, due to severe motion sickness, she got out of the car and ran to the hospital to accompany the baby for the examination. Afterwards, she took the subway back to our home. I was deeply moved by her dedication.

    >新婴儿护理能够做好日常护理记录，针对宝妈产奶中途出现堵塞的问题，一边帮助宝妈按摩治疗，同时进行适当奶粉搭配保证宝宝的哺育，并对奶粉可能过敏等症状进行跟踪，针对母乳和奶粉采取不同方案哺育宝宝； 

    >对于宝宝的生理性黄疸能够准确判定并及时采取措施控制，通过婴儿适当饮水进行调节促进宝宝的新陈代谢，顺利的度过黄疸期；通过定时做好宝宝的肚脐清理，宝宝卫生护理等日常工作，避免肚脐的感染和红屁股等现象发生； 

    >针对宝妈月子餐配菜做到有层次搭配，遇到问题有针对性调节月子餐，例如对于宝妈乳房堵塞采取调整月子餐结构以避免问题严重； >对宝妈身体恢复进行日常的按摩和抚乳等措施帮助进行身体恢复，对于宝妈哺乳姿势、哺乳后婴儿按摩、婴儿洗澡等正确的方法能够耐心讲解，帮助纠正；针对宝妈 产后抑郁能够积极沟通，做好心理开导工作； 

    >对宝宝出现的鼻泪管堵塞、肚脐脱落前防感染、湿疹预防、睡眠不安等症状做到及时发现提醒，给出解决建议，避免的宝宝症状的进一步恶化； 

    >孟阿姨除了月子护理之外，由于在育儿方面很有经验，所以在早期对于每个阶段育儿方面给出了很多专业建议，例如窗铃有助与锻炼宝宝的追视能力，踏琴有助于宝宝四肢成长、摇铃与锻炼宝宝的抓握能力、黑白卡有助帮助宝宝的大脑等； 

    >孟阿姨比较健谈，和我的家人相处的比较融洽，针对一些观念和专业上冲突的护理问题时耐心的讲解，在宝宝健康成长的原则问题能够坚持，并征求我和家人的意见，我个人比较欣赏阿姨这一点，坚持自己的专业意见我想这也是大家请月嫂最初的本意。 

    >The newborn care service provides detailed daily care records.  For mothers experiencing blocked milk ducts, the caregiver provides massage therapy while simultaneously ensuring the baby receives adequate nutrition through appropriate formula supplementation. They also monitor for potential formula allergies and adapt feeding plans based on whether the baby is breastfed or formula-fed.

    >The caregiver accurately identifies and manages physiological jaundice in newborns, promoting metabolism through appropriate hydration to help the baby successfully overcome this period.  They also perform regular umbilical cord cleaning and other daily hygiene tasks to prevent umbilical infections and diaper rash.

    >The caregiver prepares postpartum meals with a balanced and varied menu, adjusting the meals as needed. For example, they modify the diet to address blocked milk ducts and prevent further complications.

    >They assist with the mother's physical recovery through daily massages and breast care. They patiently explain and correct proper breastfeeding positions, infant massage techniques after feeding, and bathing procedures. They also provide emotional support and guidance to mothers experiencing postpartum depression.

    >The caregiver promptly identifies and addresses issues such as blocked tear ducts, umbilical cord infection prevention before detachment, eczema prevention, and sleep disturbances, providing solutions to prevent further complications.

    >In addition to postpartum care, Aunt Meng, due to her extensive experience in childcare, provides many professional suggestions for each stage of infant development. For example, she suggests using wind chimes to improve the baby's tracking ability, a foot piano to promote limb development, rattles to enhance grasping skills, and black and white cards to stimulate brain development.

    >Aunt Meng is very communicative and gets along well with my family. She patiently explains any conflicting views or professional differences regarding care practices. She maintains her professional principles regarding the baby's healthy development while also seeking my and my family's opinions. I personally appreciate this aspect of her approach; maintaining her professional opinion is, I believe, the original intention of hiring a postpartum caregiver.

    >孟阿姨和我们相处虽仅有短短的一个月的时间，但给我和家人的感觉，对待宝宝有点像自己的外孙一样，照顾倍加细致有耐心，在此对孟阿姨阿姨表示衷心的感谢，同时向准宝爸宝妈进行推荐的亮点 

    >产后护理专业知识过硬，又有丰富的育儿经验，实践经验较多； 

    >具有基本初级产妇医学知识，对新生儿可能出现问题具有很好的预见性，能给出较好的解决方案； 

    >职业操守高，性格开朗，善于沟通有助于缓解宝妈产后抑郁情绪；

    Although Aunt Meng only spent a short month with us, she treated our baby like her own grandchild, providing exceptionally meticulous and patient care. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Aunt Meng and highly recommend her to expectant parents for the following reasons:

    * She possesses excellent professional knowledge in postpartum care and has extensive experience in childcare, with plenty of practical experience;

    * She has basic medical knowledge related to postpartum mothers and can anticipate potential problems in newborns, offering effective solutions;

    * She has high professional ethics, a cheerful personality, and excellent communication skills, which helps alleviate postpartum depression in mothers.
