Kenyan actress Dorea Chege recently shared on social media about hiring a night nurse to take care of her newborn while she gets some rest at night.
Her post sparked mixed reactions, with some fans taking a swipe at the WaJesus family, suggesting that they might not understand what it means to have such help.
The WaJesus family, consisting of Milly and Kabi Wa Jesus, is known for sharing their parenting journey openly with their followers.
Some netizens assumed that they manage everything on their own without external help, unlike Dorea Chege, who openly admitted to having a night nurse.
After noticing the comments, Milly Wa Jesus decided to respond through her TikTok account.
She addressed the fans who were mocking her family, making it clear that every parent has their own way of raising children, and there is no shame in getting assistance.
Milly emphasized that having help does not mean a mother is any less responsible for her child.
She also stated that parenting is a journey with different challenges, and people should not judge others based on how they choose to handle it.
Her response resonated with many of her followers, who appreciated her maturity and openness on the matter.
Some fans even supported the idea of hiring help, saying that new mothers need as much rest as possible to recover and take care of their babies properly.
Additionally, Milly Wa Jesus has shared about @UkoopostPartum retreat, a special place where new mothers can go immediately after giving birth to receive care and support. She even showcased a nurse who takes care of the babies and a chef who prepares meals for the mothers.
In her post, she also referred the Bulls family to the retreat, highlighting the importance of postpartum care and the need for mothers to prioritize their well-being.
