Nannies call it quits during holiday

GUANGZHOU - Chen Yueying, a Guangzhou housewife, looks tired these days after her enjoyable but exhausting Spring Festival holiday.

In addition to shopping and cooking for her family during the festival, Chen, 65, has to look after her 1-month-old grandson. And then there is her daughter-in-law, who is recovering for a month at home after giving birth.

"I'm happy to be a grandmother, but now I am really tired," Chen told China Daily. "I was busy at home, doing housework and looking after my grandson every day for the past few weeks."
