life without helper

[ozmaofoz]

We have no live-in helper but have hired a local lady for part-time help. We take my son everywhere in an unpadded sling (like the Maya Wrap that the HK LLL sells). We have a pram, but even if with a wiggly, large year old toddler it is wayyyyy easier to get around if you just leave the pram at home. Eating out is almost impossible with a baby in HK, though.

I've a 6 month old baby and have "survived" so far without a helper. It is possible, though I get alot of support from my husband. We do manage to get out for meals, going out at lunchtime instead of the evenings, and restaurants in HK don't mind this. It may be a little difficult for you to begin with as you'll be new to the area, feel free to contact me if you're in need of a chat and good luck with the move!

I just wanted to thank you all.
I have found a HK lady from Philippines who has a permanent ID Card and take her part time which make us both happy.

I have commited a number of hours so I could get a better rate and she could get a commitment.
