- Affluent young Mumbai mothers are hiring upmarket nannies, who are usually trained nurses, to look after their babies
- The nannies charge from Rs 800-1,400 for a 12-hour shift. Some mothers hire both a day and night nanny.
- It's a status symbol to have your baby accompanied by a uniformed nanny on holidays or parties
- While the nannies take charge, the mothers resume their socialising or gymming within days of giving birth
