Engaging confinement nanny for 2nd kid

Hi all! I'll be having my second kid come December, and I'm in a dilemma whether to engage a confinement nanny. I currently have a helper and a 2-year old kid. Pros: nanny can take night duty and cook and prepare meals well. Allow me to rest at night and eat freshly cooked food. Cons: With a helper alrdy, I don't need help for housework nor laundry. Secondly, I'll also need to wake to pump even if I don't have to take care of the newborn. But I'm also concerned that my helper will be overwhelmed by the sudden increase in workload as she is already looking after my 2-year old at night, though I'll be looking after the newborn myself mostly. And of course, the cost for hiring a nanny is quite expensive, so I'm hesitant.. For those who had engaged a confinement nanny for your second child while having a helper, may I ask why/why not?

Extremely difficult to get LO to eat

My LO is 15 months old, and he's been rejecting his meals. He would probably have less than half a small bowl of porridge and stop. I've tried quite a number of ways to get him to eat, such as us adults eating with him, giving him more solid adult food eg rice and bread, adding snacks on his porridge to coax him to eat, changing up the cuisine type (Chinese, western, curry etc), pureeing his food until they're mush, letting him feed himself, feeding him, letting him play while eating etc. And he rejects them all after a short while. Now even his ifc teachers are saying tt he doesn't eat much in school, while he would eat a lot previously. Does anyone have any idea how to make toddlers eat more? Please tell me this is a phase tt will pass soon,I'm at my wits end.
