my maid took care 4.5 yr and baby. No grandparent can offer help.
I buy all food and things near my office lunch time, maid no need to go market,
I also order vegetable and meat delivery to my home through internet,.
I did not request her clean window, and don't care about house work.
only request her to do basic cooking, and cleaning,
I will make package of baby food in Sat and Sunday, ready for her to cook in week days ( like dumpling with meat and vegetable ), and keep in fridge, ask her to cook simple for children's lunch, all steamed food as I do not want her to stay in kitchen all the time when I am away.
Safety is most important, I tell her.
I also take care baby in evening , sleep with me becasue I breast feed.
其實,我覺得好睇個工人係啲咩人囉,so far 我個姐姐都算照顧得我兩個女幾好,當然清潔呢樣唔可以話可以去到100%囉。我大囡出世就請佢啦,依家一個20個月大,一個7個月大。最先細囡出世頭兩、三個月,我老爺,奶奶都有過吓嚟幫手睇吓,後尾都無啦,完全係姐姐一個攪掂,佢仲可以有時間睇報紙㖭,我真係比個服字佢。
