Irvine

Irvine is known for its top-ranked schools, master-planned villages, and tech-driven workforce. Many parents work long hours in nearby business hubs like the Irvine Spectrum, UCI Research Park, and John Wayne Airport corridor—while still wanting calm, structured home routines for their kids. My Asian Nanny helps Irvine families find trusted Asian nannies, Chinese postpartum confinement nannies, and night nurses who understand both high-achieving environments and family-centered values.

Whether you live in Woodbury, Northwood, Turtle Rock, Orchard Hills, Cypress Village, or near the University of California, Irvine (UCI), we provide in-home nanny services tailored to your schedule, cultural preferences, and parenting style.

Irvine parents often share the same challenges:

  • Demanding work & commuting schedules
    Tech, finance, healthcare, and academic roles often mean early mornings, late calls, or unpredictable hours.
  • High academic expectations
    Families want caregivers who respect Irvine’s strong school culture and support homework, enrichment, and healthy study habits.
  • Limited daycare flexibility
    Daycare hours and ratios don’t always fit the needs of newborns, toddlers, or kids with specific temperaments.
  • Postpartum recovery without nearby family
    Many families are far from grandparents and need Chinese postpartum care or a postpartum nanny to fill that gap.

Our role is to make the search for a nanny simple, safe, and aligned with what Irvine families actually need—reliable help at home, with cultural understanding and professional care standards.

Asian nanny engaging with children in an Irvine home

Our Asian nanny services support Irvine families with both live-in and live-out arrangements. Whether you live in a condo near Irvine Spectrum Center or a single-family home in Northwood, we match you with nannies who can:

  • Manage daily routines
    Morning prep, school drop-off/pick-up, after-school snacks, homework, and bedtime routines.
  • Support academics
    Reading practice, math review, project support, and positive study habits that align with Irvine’s high academic standards.
  • Provide bilingual, culturally aware care
    Nanny Chinese options (Mandarin or Cantonese) plus English, so children can connect with their heritage and communicate confidently at school.
  • Coordinate activities
    Safe transport (when applicable) to Irvine community centers, sports leagues, music lessons, and tutoring sessions.

Compensation for live-in or full-time nannies varies based on experience, duties (such as driving, cooking, or tutoring), schedule, and number of children.

Postpartum nanny caring for newborn in Irvine

For new parents, we provide Chinese postpartum nanny services—also known as confinement nannies—who focus on both the mother’s postpartum recovery care and the baby’s early weeks.

  • Newborn care expertise
    Feeding, burping, diapering, soothing, and establishing age-appropriate routines.
  • Postpartum care service for mom
    Encouraging rest, warmth, gentle movement (as approved by your doctor), and emotional support.
  • Chinese postpartum care traditions
    Help with warming foods and practical adjustments that align with both tradition and modern medical guidance.

For Irvine-area families, postpartum nanny services typically range from about $280–$390 per day for live-in care, depending on whether the nanny is providing baby-only care or additional postpartum meals and household help, as well as experience and twin care needs.

Booking timeline: To ensure you find the best postpartum nanny for your needs, we recommend starting your search during your second trimester (around 14–16 weeks). The earlier you begin, the wider the selection of experienced caregivers will be available for you to interview.
