What exactly does the sister-in-law do? A large part of the people think that asking for a sister-in-law is to bring a child, and the elders in the family have experience with children, and there is no need to invite a sister-in-law. There is also such a saying: "Isn't the sister-in-law a nanny for the employer's family, and she also needs such a high salary, it is really black heart!" ”
But the truth is that the professional knowledge of the sister-in-law is simply incomparable to that of the nanny! The service of the sisters-in-law is worth such a high salary! In fact, the work content of the sister-in-law is 80% of newborn care and 20% of maternal care, and the recovery of maternal recovery is closely related to the growth of newborns.
Employers who hope to see this article must not use the sister-in-law as a nanny, the professional knowledge of the sister-in-law is really incomparable to the traditional nanny.
Differences in service content

And tutoring mothers without parenting experience to learn to communicate with young children, emotional enhancement, etc., in simple terms, the sister-in-law is a person who has come over to guide the new mother how to become a qualified mother; the service customers of the sister-in-law are newborns and mothers who have just given birth, and the general service cycle is 30 days or 42 days.
【Babysitter】
The range of people served by nannies is wide, generally as a profession of performing simple housework and caring for the elderly, the sick or infants and young children.
So you see, the sister-in-law and the nanny are really different!

Sister-in-law
Is the sister-in-law responsible for the family's meals?
The work content of the above month sister-in-law looks at the general situation, and it will not. In addition to the confinement meal, the diet of others is not the responsibility of the confinement sister-in-law.
Of course, things are not absolute, for the family population is relatively small (family of three), if there is no excessive requirements on the taste, the sister-in-law can make more part of the mother's meal, and solve the new father's diet together.
Why? Is it the sister-in-law who is lazy? Definitely not. Two reasons:
01, is the importance of confinement meals
Maternity confinement meals are targeted monthly meal lists formulated for maternal physical characteristics and eating habits, and many of them are beneficial to maternal wound healing and breastfeeding. If you let the mother eat inappropriate food for the taste of others, it will not be worth the loss.
02, is the focus of the work of the sister-in-law
The job responsibility of the confinement sister-in-law is to take care of the mother and the newborn, which is mainly based on the care of the baby, and the confinement meals and additional meals of maternal care are generally done by the confinement sister-in-law.
This work is both technical and manual, and has occupied a lot of time and energy of the sister-in-law. If you arrange other jobs, you may not be able to take good care of your new mother and baby.
If she let the sister-in-law cook the whole family's meal, her energy is not enough, if the family population is not large, the sister-in-law can also help cook together. However, if the population is large, or the housework is more complicated, it is not good for the sister-in-law to do it, after all, the main work of the sister-in-law is still the mother and the baby.
If you want the confinement sister-in-law to make the family's meals well when giving the mother confinement meal, this requires the customer and the confinement sister-in-law to communicate and agree in advance. The premise is to have a family to take care of the baby, after all, the focus of the sister-in-law's work is to take care of the baby.
So, asking an experienced sister-in-law to help a family is very helpful! Therefore, I hope that all the sisters-in-law can be more confident, and I hope that employers can have a deeper understanding of the work of the sister-in-law.
