Might not be the same as your request but I can share mine. I send my baby over to Nanny's home.

1. How did you guys came across your nanny?
MIL's friend

2. How much are you guys paying her?
RM1200 1 on 1

3. What's the job scope - can she cook (plus clean) besides taking care of the kid?
Take care of baby only. Working days. 7AM-7:30PM

4. Can foreign maids be nannies as well, or this seldom happens
not sure

Note: just be prepared, the nanny's way of taking care of baby might be diff with us...and sometimes it's hard to say them because they may not be happy.  Because I'm a new mother so I was very stressed initially, but afterwards ok edi.

There's  FB group (Chinese words) that is all about mothers/confinement/ nannies, last saw the price for nanny who comes over to home is around RM4000. Stay in nannies are higher.

Used to have maid last time many years ago. No good feedback. Just know that end up my house have to install cctv and install lock on all the cabinets. Yet still things in house went missing.

I also just got a nanny same price and 1-to-1. But less hour. Start next month. Hopefully all goes well. I’m new mom also. So fully understand ur feeling. Yeah VERY AGREE TO NOT comment about nanny’s method of taking care of baby. Didnt know aunty so sensitive nowadays, accidentally commented on my MIL (only on baby sleeping position) after coming back from CC. Now our relationship changed 180deg d.

Need to adjust own mindset, don’t be monster parent. As long as kid can eat sleep grow during infant and toddler stage and don’t cause u any trouble, good enough. Even if with maid, hubby, own mom, daycare or whoever also same. Don’t break good relationship coz of small issues. Ur kid won’t remember/appreciate that u once so overly-cared for him/her until ur relationship with others is broken. U can care later after fetching ur kid home.
