Other factors that would affect the cost:

Other factors that would
affect the cost:

If you are having twins

We understand that it is not easy having twins, especially when all costs are doubled. Our nannies share the burden by looking after the twin babies at the same time

If you live in multi-storey apartment

As our confinement ladies are generally older in age, it’s not easy for them to climb up and down the stairs

If you require nanny to cook for more members in the family

Our nannies will cook three meals a day for mummy and daddy. Additional cooking would mean a heavier workload with more dishes and utensils to clean

If you require an English-speaking nanny

As our confinement ladies are mostly from Malaysia, their main language would be Mandarin. Due to demand and supply, the cost of hiring an English-speaking nanny would be higher

If your confinement period is during the Chinese New Year period

The reason for the increased pricing during the Chinese New Year period is primarily due to the limited availability of confinement nannies. Many nannies prefer to spend this special time with their families back home in Malaysia, resulting in a decreased supply of available nannies.
