I have my parents’ help to look after me during my confinement period. Do I still need a confinement nanny?

While having your parents' assistance during the confinement period is invaluable, deciding whether to hire a confinement lady depends on your individual needs and circumstances. 

Factors to consider include the expertise a nanny can offer in postnatal care and newborn management, the potential workload on your parents, and your own rest and recovery needs. Additionally, confinement nannies are knowledgeable about traditional confinement practices, which may be helpful to ensure a smooth postpartum experience.
