How to break the nanny shortage during the Spring Festival?

As the Spring Festival approaches, Meicheng is experiencing a “nanny shortage” again. In fact, this is not a new problem. So, how does it break the situation?

The author believes that the "nanny shortage" is relative. In other words, there are not many nanny practitioners in the nanny market, and in terms of number, they can basically meet the needs of customers. However, due to the uneven quality of nanny agencies, the lack of standardized nanny market management, and the uneven quality of employees, there is a relative imbalance between supply and demand.

It is not easy for both the supply side and the demand side of nannies to achieve a healthy and harmonious situation. On the one hand, nannies with higher quality and higher skills also have higher demands on the demand side, and of course they also require higher salaries. They often cannot find customers who are suitable for them and are satisfied with them. On the other hand, there are still relatively few senior housekeeping practitioners in Meicheng. There are some relatively wealthy customers who are in urgent need of high-end nannies, but are struggling to find a nanny that they are satisfied with. The contradiction between these two aspects has largely caused the "nanny shortage". During the Chinese New Year, this contradiction becomes particularly prominent.

So, how to resolve this contradiction?

The author believes that first: the government and relevant departments should strengthen the management of the nanny market. They can adopt a "blacklist" approach and resolutely remove employees with bad records to prevent situations like the one in Hangzhou. Vicious incidents such as the "nanny arson case" occurred. Of course, for clients who maliciously owe wages, the government should also provide justice to relatively vulnerable nannies.

Second: Strengthen the training of nanny practitioners. Including training on professional skills, professional ethics, and industry self-discipline to better create a harmonious professional environment.

Third: The government can guide companies to create one or two nanny training brand institutions, attract some high-quality personnel to engage in this industry, and use the power of the brand to influence and drive the industry to meet high-end market demand. This move can not only meet domestic demand, but also export labor to other cities. (Meixizi)
