[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need more help with cleaning. I’m a night nurse and do not do any type of cleaning- not even bottles. Unless you hire a doula, you will be doing cleaning, making meals and laundry while I spend time with your newborn. [/quote]

I had multiple different night nurses help me out on a temporary basis when my twins were born and they all washed baby bottles. I don’t even know how you could argue that that’s not part of the job. You’re taking care of baby’s needs, and one of those needs is eating.[/quote]

I’m in Los Angeles and all families have full time housekeepers, so no that’s not my job. [/quote]

Do you also refuse to change diapers because you might get your hands dirty?

I mean not cleaning bottles is a little extreme but I think it's an excellent point that if your goal is to free up time for you to spend with baby, hire someone who is willing to do any and all housework.  Even doulas won't do everything.[/quote]
