Hiro experienced culture shock after giving birth in Australia – so she sought out a nanny to adhere to Chinese postpartum traditions

Lisa Gong didn't need to worry too much about her baby right after giving birth. Tidus Chau works at Baby Love Group, which operates five luxury maternity hotels in Hong Kong and has a service model that combines "Chinese tradition" and "modern science". "However, research suggests Asian postpartum traditions can be a barrier for women to engage with certain postpartum lifestyle advice by modern or Western medicine, as these may not be compatible with their traditions," she said. "In Australia, we need culturally integrated recommendations for the care of Chinese postpartum women," she said. "I'm a registered dietitian and have been working in the field of mother and baby nutrition for 15 years but couldn't find anything in Australia," she said.
