Helper taking care of baby

Hi mummies, we hired a maid to help out on household and baby. I don't know about you.. but for me somehow I feel unsecured for helper to take care of my baby, like will my baby go to my helper instead of me when she grow up? Because sometimes she will be the one to feed/change diapers/bath/play. I tried to spend more time with baby because I am so afraid that baby will choose helper instead of me next time. Is this normal? How do you mummies deal with this? #firstbaby #1stimemom #advicepls

I feel the same way as you. My boy is 2.6 year old now. My helper takes care and sleep with him since he was 4 month. I am grateful for her help as I am not able to handle my son without damaging myself mentally and physically. This mindset helps me alot: “Your baby is capable of loving more than one person. And having more people to love your baby is beneficial.” Ofcourse for the first year, every spare time I have, I make it a point to spend it with my baby. Ill bring him down for walks, Ill bring him to my room so its just me and him, I also put our selfies everywhere at home where he can see. Hahahaha I can see that my son loves both of us (good because it shows my helper really do take care of him well) but ofcourse he knows who is his mummy. Hugs!
