About Gladys Care Confinement
Gladys Care Confinement is a confinement nanny service operating islandwide across Singapore. The listing has been verified by KakiList, and the provider holds a 4.5/5 rating across 79 Google reviews — a moderate sample that offers reasonable directional confidence. Pricing is indicated at the mid-range ($$) tier; a specific package figure was not provided, so prospective clients should request a full breakdown directly.
Most families begin by reaching out via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form to discuss their expected due date, dietary traditions (Cantonese herbal soups, Hokkien, or other preferences), and any specific requirements around overnight care, baby bathing, or breastfeeding support. Standard confinement engagements run 28 days from the day of discharge, with some families opting for a 56-day arrangement. Because popular confinement nannies are in high demand, it is advisable to begin discussions four to six months ahead of the due date, and ideally to conduct an interview before confirming the booking. Agreeing on food preferences, herbal soup repertoire, overnight duties, and sleeping arrangements in writing before the nanny arrives helps avoid misunderstandings during an already demanding period.
To take the next step, contact Gladys Care Confinement via WhatsApp or phone to check availability around your due date, ask to speak with or meet the assigned nanny beforehand, and confirm all terms — including duties, food, and overnight care — in writing before paying any deposit.

It was a pleasure working with Gladys Care 1987. Happy with her comprehensive services - from nanny to lactation and jamu massage. This made it really convenient especially for a first time mom as I could focus on my newborn and recovery, knowing that things I needed for the confinement are taken care of. Gladys was very caring, came to do my massages in person and always try to be flexible with her schedule. She is also very responsive to any questions and messages, and was able to assign me a nanny even with short notice birth timing change. Glad I went with 6 sessions of her lactation massage as she was able to fix my engorgement and improve milk let down. They were worth the pain :) After the sessions, I felt my milk flowing more smoothly and was able to double my milk volume to the level that my baby is happy with. Her Jamu massage was also great, immediately saw a reduction in tummy size and felt the “wind” leaving my body after each session. Her bengkung wrap was always carefully done to get optimal results. Thoroughly appreciate my nanny, Aunty Lilian. She is very hardworking and offered me and my husband help where we needed her. She is an excellent cook and my baby was very comfortable with her. We enjoyed all the confinement dishes aunty made and appreciate that I didn’t need to plan any menus as she knew what to cook at each stage of my confinement. We could also trust her doing the necessary grocery shopping for the confinement dishes. Thank you Gladys for the care you give to all your mommies. Highly recommend!

Really appreciate Nanny Sim for her help during my one month confinement. She is very hardworking and offered us lots of help and support to our baby especially when we are first time parents. She is able to attend to baby needs promptly which allows us to rest and recover. In addition, she is an excellent cook and takes great pride in her cooking in which we have also enjoyed as much as possible. Thank you Gladys for your prompt support and response also :)

It was a pleasure working with Gladys. She has a warm and pleasant personality, and she is an experienced lactation consultant. I greatly appreciated that she made herself available to help me on breastfeeding during my confinement period, during the massage sessions she also provided me with guidance on breastfeeding. I had a wonderful nany, Ivy, who provided the best care to my son and our family, cooked the most delicious food for us, and taught us how to care for baby. She also provided training to my domestic helper on infant care and my helper can now confidently care for our son. Thank you Gladys and Ivy :)

We highly recommend Gladys Care to anyone seeking nanny services. Gladys was very responsive, accommodating to our bespoke requests and patient with questions. She assigned us Nanny Lily as our live-out night nanny for 3 months, which included post-natal massage for a week. We found Nanny Lily to be warm, trustworthy and experienced with infant care. She offered helpful suggestions while always respecting our childcare preferences. Our baby loved her and we miss her very much! We are grateful to Gladys for finding us such good care and will definitely use her agency again.

Thank you Gladys care for assigning nanny Lee for my twins . With her around , I am able to rest well and have a good confinement. She managed to prepare confinement meals according to my body recovery conditions. Nanny assisted me in my breastfeeding journey too.

She taught us how to manage our time well, how to care for babies from head to toes in detailed ways without neglecting all important aspect of the hygiene of babies , how to engage babies . Besides that, she is patient and willing to share her knowledge on all the enquiries I have about baby care . On top of that , nanny taught us how to manage twin care day time and night time and she helped to train the helper until competent too before she left us . Her responsibility towards babies care and respect to family members , in laws are truly remarkable . Our twin baby care will not be smooth without the help of nanny. Thank you Gladys care and nanny Lee.

How far ahead should I book Gladys Care Confinement?›
Demand for confinement nannies in Singapore is consistently high, and experienced nannies are often booked four to six months before the expected due date. For popular nannies or peak months (Chinese New Year period, school-holiday clusters), bookings can be secured up to twelve months in advance. When you enquire, ask to interview the assigned nanny directly before confirming. Discuss dietary traditions — for example, Cantonese ginger and sesame-based cooking versus a Hokkien or dairy diet — any food allergies in the household, overnight duties, and sleeping arrangements. Reaching an agreement on these points early reduces friction during the confinement period itself.
Is the nanny trained and what happens if she is unsuitable?›
Confinement nanny certification is not mandated by any Singapore regulatory body, so credentials vary widely between providers. Look for nannies who have completed a recognised confinement training course and have documented experience across multiple placements. Ask Gladys Care Confinement directly about the assigned nanny's training background and number of prior engagements. Clarify the replacement policy before signing any agreement. Agency-placed nannies typically come with a replacement clause if there is a documented mismatch in duties or conduct, whereas freelance arrangements may offer limited or no recourse. Confirm the terms — what triggers a replacement, how quickly one can be arranged, and whether any fee adjustment applies — in writing before committing.
