\"stayWhat to expect?<\/strong><\/p>\n

As stay in nanny works typically 24hr a day, Monday to Sunday for 28 days including public holidays, it is highly recommended for the nanny<\/a><\/strong> to have a room for herself with the baby. This not only allow mummy to have her adequate quality rest but also allow the nanny to attend to the baby if he or she wake up in the middle of the night or during wee hours. Due to the need to wake\u00a0up during wee hours, it is very important for nanny to have her personal 2 hours rest time to sleep in the afternoon to compensate her deprived sleep\u00a0so that she can recover, have better energy and attention to take care baby. Otherwise, she may fall sick easily which can be a greater hassle to you. If there are scenarios whereby no room is available, there are nannies who are willing to share the bedroom together with mummy or sleep in the living room. If the above mentioned options are not favourable to the family, you\u00a0may also wish to consider stay out or day time confinement nanny instead.<\/p>\n
