A 24-year-old woman surnamed Xia has recently become the first wet nurse in Guangdong Province after she was employed by a local family in Shenzhen, Guangzhou Daily reported.
In addition to breast-feeding the baby, Xia, who comes from East China's Jiangxi Province, will also help to take care of it and cook for the family.
Xia, herself the mother of a 4-month-old daughter, will earn about 5,000 yuan (US$625) a month.
There is great potential for the development of this profession in this prosperous province, where many new mothers refuse to breast-feed their infant babies in order to keep a slender figure.
