The sharing program recruits healthy retired females to accompany children.

"During traditional Chinese holidays, we organize the families to visit the older women as well, as a way to thank them for their efforts," said 26-year-old Mao Yu, a volunteer at the center.

"The service is great and worth promoting in other places in the country," a netizen said on Sina Weibo.
