Back then, there were no titles, no high rates, and no structured systems — only responsibility and a strong desire to do the job well.
I started with a daycare, later pursued nursing-related training, and gradually transitioned into postpartum and newborn care coordination. It was a time of long hours, 24-hour shifts, no holidays — just dedication.
Over three decades, the industry has changed.
Compensation has increased. Expectations have increased.
But one belief has never changed for me:
As income rises, standards must rise.
Years of experience should never replace continued growth.
Within my team, I value not only how many babies someone has cared for, but whether they truly understand:
• Newborn safety
• Night care responsibility
• Professional boundaries
• Respect for the role
Experience matters — but professionalism matters more.
If a caregiver cannot continue learning or uphold our standards, I choose to discontinue cooperation.
Not to deny their past work, but to protect the trust of the families we serve.
After more than 30 years, what I value most is not pricing — but integrity.
Not reputation — but conscience.
This path has never been easy, but I have always walked it with sincerity.

我的母嬰照護之路,始於 1994 年,在我第一個孩子出生之後。
那個年代,沒有頭銜,沒有高薪,也沒有完善制度——
只有一份責任感,以及把事情做好的決心。
我從經營 Daycare 開始,後來進修相關護理訓練,
逐步轉型投入產後與新生兒照護安排。
那是一段長時間工作、24 小時待命、沒有假日的歲月——
只有投入與堅持。
三十多年來,產業改變了。
收入提高了,要求也提高了。
但有一個信念,從未改變——
收入提高,標準必須同步提高。
經驗累積,不能取代持續成長。
在我的團隊裡,我看重的,
不只是照顧過多少寶寶,
而是是否真正理解:
• 新生兒安全
• 夜間照護責任
• 專業界線
• 對這份工作的尊重
經驗重要——
但專業更重要。
如果無法持續學習,或無法維持團隊標準,
我會選擇停止合作。
不是否定過去的付出,
而是為了守護每一個家庭對我們的信任。
三十多年來,我最珍惜的,
不是價格——而是誠信。
不是名聲——而是良心。
這條路從不輕鬆,
但我始終真誠地走著。
