New York

"I was worried that hosting a live-in caregiver in a small New York apartment might be an inconvenience, but Auntie Clara was a true professional. I was amazed at how she could whip up healthy meals in a cramped kitchen without ever getting in the way. My baby was sensitive to Manhattan's noise, but thanks to the white noise and swaddling techniques she taught me, the 'back sensor' is almost gone. For those like me who gave birth alone in a foreign land without help, HappyMom isn't a choice, it's a necessity. Thanks to them, I survived the hellish 'solo parenting'."
