Wah! your helper is so great! I have a daughter (2yr 9mth old) and a baby (1.5mth old). Both are sleeping with me (as I want to take care of my baby). I ask my helper to move her mattress to my room and sleep there at night so that I can quickly ask her to help me out in the mid-night.
My helper is not that efficient as your helper. She mainly helps with the houseworks only. Plus she plans to return home after the contract ends in April. I need to hire any helper. Can you introduce me the employment agency of your helper? I hope I can find a new helper as great as yours.
Totally agree. It's mami's responsibility and we just can't delegate 100% of it to our maids. I am a working mom also and my boy is now 16 months old. No matter when he wakes up in the middle of the night, for bottles or nightmares. I will wake up myself and take care of him, make sure he's OK before I get back to sleep.
I don't agree with some parents who just gave birth to the little ones and leave the rest to the maids. That's very irresponsible. Although my husband also thinks that I should leave it to the maids instead of taking care of the baby myself.
