月嫂并不是保姆。月嫂是专门照料月子的家庭服务员，月嫂所具备的专业知识是传统的保姆所无法比拟的。通常情况下，“月嫂”的工作集保姆、护士、厨师、早教师的工作性质于一身，并且月嫂上岗前都会经过严格、系统的培训，以便掌握更多的产后护理知识。
Yuesao is not a nanny. Yuesao is a family attendant who takes care of yuezi. The professional knowledge of Yuesao is incomparable to that of traditional nanny. In general, the work of "Yuesao" is a combination of nanny, nurse, chef and early teacher, and Yuesao will go through strict and systematic training before going on duty, so as to master more postpartum nursing knowledge.
