helper or not? appreciate those who are in the same situation to provide some perspectives

ftm here w a 3 months baby and recently hired a helper. didn't want her to tc my baby therefore mainly only doing household chores and cooking. but at the same time, for a 4 room flat, there isn't much chores to do throughout the day. most of the times she asked to rest once she has completed her chores and cooking. what shld I do? seems like the $ is wasted becos there's nth much for her to do.

Same here, I try to be more hands on with my baby but sometimes if really tired/ need to pump/ eat meals then it’s great that the helper is around.. my helper also sometimes just rests when there’s nothing else to do after finishing chores. I like the house clean every day and not having to think about doing chores.. helps in my relationship with my husband too. Used to nag at him to do chores but he’s working also and come back home would want to rest and spend time with baby.
