From Tradition to Trend: Chinese Confinement Nannies Gain Popularity Across the U.S.
The centuries-old tradition of Chinese postpartum confinement is going mainstream in America, as more families seek culturally rooted newborn care and maternal recovery support.
LOS ANGELES, CA - August 15, 2025 - The centuries-old practice of zuo yue zi — or Chinese postpartum confinement — is no longer limited to the Asian community. Families across the United States are increasingly hiring Chinese confinement nannies to ensure mothers receive proper rest, nutrition, and newborn care during the critical first 30 to 100 days after birth.
'Postpartum care is about more than changing diapers — it's about a mother's physical healing, emotional stability, and family bonding,' said Stephanie Lin, founder of My Asian Nanny. 'We've seen a 40% increase in inquiries from non-Asian families over the past three years, especially in major metro areas.'
The growing interest reflects a wider shift in attitudes toward postpartum recovery, as more parents seek holistic and culturally informed support. Confinement nannies typically provide round-the-clock newborn care, traditional healing meals, lactation support, and gentle postpartum exercises to aid recovery.
The trend is supported by research showing that mothers who receive consistent postpartum care report faster physical recovery, lower stress levels, and a reduced risk of postpartum depression.

New Mexico Game and Fish says viral ‘horned rabbits' possible in the state
NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – Demon rabbits, franken-bunnies, and zombie rabbits are just some of the names these funky little critters have been coined across social media. 'It doesn't look real at all,' said Alena Cordova of Albuquerque. Peculiar-looking cotton-tailed rabbits have been popping up in northern Colorado. And although these rabbits may look intimidating, experts say there's no reason to be spooked. 'It looked like a zombie and kind of disturbing,' said Julius Angeli of Albuquerque. His mother, Eva Angeli, told KRQE News 13 that these rabbits look unreal. 'It looks like something out of science fiction,' she said. These rabbits are infected with a papilloma virus that produces benign protrusions on a rabbit's or hare's face or head. 'Fortunately, these growths tend to be benign, so, but still, it's definitely out of the ordinary,' explained Darren Vaughan, spokesperson for the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish. New Mexico Department of Game and Fish to sell nearly 500 leftover deer licenses He says the growths can impede a rabbit's ability to eat, drink, or move around, but the virus is not contagious. It's transmitted to rabbits from fleas, ticks, or even mosquitoes. 'It is not transmissible to people or other animals. However, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't still take caution,' continued Vaughan. Vaughan says that although there have been no reports of these infected rabbits in New Mexico so far, it's not something they are ruling out just yet. 'As far as we know, it hasn't made its way into New Mexico yet. But then again, like I said, it could just be that people haven't seen it yet, that it is in fact here,' said Vaughan.

California is seeing spike in tick-borne illness anaplasmosis, experts warn
Ticks carrying a disease called anaplasmosis are spreading quickly throughout California, experts say. The disease is mainly showing up in dogs. Since dogs spend more time outdoors, experts say rising cases in pets could signal that humans may soon be at greater risk. More than half of the state's counties are now considered "high risk," according to the nonprofit group Companion Animal Parasite Council's data. "There's not a lot of awareness in California because most people think it's primarily a disease of the Upper Midwest and Northeast," said Dr. Jane Sykes, a professor of veterinary medicine at UC Davis. The culprit is the same western black-legged tick that spreads Lyme disease. In dogs, anaplasmosis can cause fever, fatigue, loss of appetite, and weight loss. In some cases, dogs may also experience nosebleeds, neck pain, or even seizures. "They kind of look depressed, dull, they don't want to move," Sykes said. "They have a fever, and sometimes they can develop vomiting." Veterinarians say diagnosis can be difficult, especially if owners don't mention that their dogs are often in tick-prone areas, making awareness critical. The good news: the illness can be treated quickly with antibiotics. "It doesn't matter when you give the antibiotics, it just costs more to have your dog in the hospital, not feeling well, going back in and out of veterinary clinics before the right diagnosis is made," Sykes explained. According to the Companion Animal Parasite Council, between 2021 and 2024 the number of dogs testing positive for the illness nearly tripled. More than half of California's counties are now at "high risk," including Yolo, Placer, and El Dorado counties. Veterinarians say the best way to keep dogs safe is year-round tick and flea prevention, as well as examining pets after walks in grassy or wooded areas.
