First aid infant/children course for myanmar helpers

Would like to know if there's any suitable First aid course for infants & children that is suitable for myanmar helpers (First language is Burmese, can't understand English/speaks English well). We are fetching helper soon and would like her to attend the course. But worried of language barrier. Any advise or recommendation? Tia~

Honestly, this is a real concern, most first aid courses here are conducted in English, so the language barrier is something you'd want to plan around carefully. Someone in my mum group mentioned that some training centres do offer basic infant and child CPR sessions with simplified demonstrations that are more hands-on and visual, which can help helpers who aren't strong in English follow along better even if the materials aren't translated. A few mums found it helped to sit through the course together with their helper the first time, so they could translate key points on the spot and reinforce things at home afterwards. It's also worth checking whether your helper's agency can arrange any supplementary caregiver training in Burmese before she arrives, since some Myanmar-based training centres do cover infant care basics as part of pre-deployment, so she may come with some foundation already. Overall, the hands-on practical courses tend to work better than lecture-heavy ones for this situation, so I'd lean towards finding something demo-based and then doing regular practice at home together to make sure the skills stick.

just curious to ask mummies who went through/experienced PPD: how did you realise you had PPD what did you do after finding out

Honestly, I think a lot of mums don't realise it at first because it doesn't always look like crying all the time, it can be persistent anxiety, feeling completely detached from your baby, or just a heaviness that doesn't lift even after the newborn blur settles. From what I've gathered, the first few months are the most common window, especially when sleep deprivation is at its worst and you're still juggling everything on your own. What I've heard from a close friend who went through it is that she finally sought help when she noticed the feelings weren't passing after weeks, she saw a doctor who referred her to a counsellor, and that structured support made a real difference for her. It's also worth knowing that dads can experience PPD too, so if your partner seems off, that's worth paying attention to as well. That said, everyone's experience is different, so do check in with your own doctor or a mental health specialist who can give you proper guidance tailored to your situation.

Gynae will give HL wk 37 onwards to rest. Don't know how and what to tell boss.

Simply say you need to rest and get ready for baby’s arrival.

Anger/Depression/Postpartum Blues

Have been feeling emotionally unstable, currently 4 month postpartum. At times i will tend to raise my voice to either the toddler or newborn cause i feel like theres too much to handle? Am i worst mom or isit normal? Im all alone, no maid no parents or in laws staying with me. Is it normal too that you cant keep up with daily activites of your children when you dealing the house on your own? Or you house in a mess when you spent too much time with your children, is this normal or am i just a lazy mom?

jiayouuuu. I've been through it. It is indeed tough. But time will help you heal gradually

Hi mummies my baby is 2 years old but just 10 kilos. How can I increase her weight? She’s a very picky eater ?

Hi mommy, in my own opinion, i think okay lang yan kahit na hindi gaanong kalakihan si baby basta nagawa naman ni baby ang milestone niya ibig sabihin healthy siya hindi nga lang parepareho ang development ng mga bata, kaya maging matiyaga lang. 😊
