Revision 5

WhatsApp follow-up: duty-card photos that show faces, Myanmar card childcare + languages, and Google wording removed

29 May 2026

Summary

Quick follow-up round on the photos and copy you flagged over WhatsApp. The “Plus Included Helper Duties” photos were cropping out the people, so we fixed the framing: Basic Cooking now shows the helpers’ faces, Marketing & Groceries was swapped to a shot where the helper is visible, and Household Errands went back to icon-only because the available photo only showed the group from behind. The Services-page Myanmar Helpers card now mentions childcare and that they pick up English and Chinese fast. And the “Google” wording was removed from the review badge and elsewhere on the homepage.

What the client said What was done about it
“Centre the photo to see the faces than cut half… I open the website see only body only. Photo 2, 3 and 4 cannot see people at all. Can change this 3 above?” Re-framed the duty-card photos so people are visible. Basic Cooking is re-cropped to the helpers’ faces (they were being sliced off the top). Marketing & Groceries swapped to a supermarket shot where the helper’s face shows, instead of the bent-over “body only” pic. Household Errands reverted to icon-only — the only errands photo we had showed everyone from behind, so rather than ship a back-only shot we kept the clean icon. Home Cleaning (already showed a face) was left as-is.
“Can include childcare and also English and Chinese fast learners?” (on the Myanmar helpers card) Updated the Myanmar Helpers card: now reads “Well suited to both elderly care and childcare… Most pick up English and Chinese quickly,” the elderly-care bullet became “Suited to both elderly care and childcare,” and “Basic English with fast improvement” became “English and Chinese — fast learners.”
“No need Google word lah” — remove the Google Reviews wording. Removed the word “Google” everywhere on the homepage: the hero badge is now “4.9/5.0 Star Rating,” the stat reads “19+ 5-Star Reviews,” the testimonials line reads “19+ excellent reviews,” and the three testimonial labels now read “Verified Review.”

Technical notes (also done)

  • Uploaded 2 re-cropped photos: nd-cooking-faces.jpg (faces band) and nd-marketing-people.jpg (helper visible, price tags cropped out).
  • Removed the .duty-photo block from the Household Errands card; kept its icon and text.
  • Patched and rebuilt the Home and Services deployments; flushed cache; re-verified live.
Revision 4

Amendment 02: disclaimer page, “Find A Helper” CTA, blue brand kicker, helper card detail, hospitals rename, and full duty-photo set

09 May 2026

Summary

Acted on every item in the May 2026 amendment doc. Built a new /disclaimer/ page with the MOM medical-screening, biodata-accuracy, and liability disclaimer text the client supplied, and linked it from every page footer. Replaced the green “WhatsApp Us” header button with an orange “Find A Helper” button (still WhatsApps directly). Brand-aligned the hero kicker (“NEW DAYS HOUSEKEEPER”) and the “Explore Our Services” hero button to the logo blue. Rewrote the Indonesian and Myanmar helper cards with the explicit elderly / toddler / pork / English & Chinese / Buddhist or Christian detail the client wrote in the margins. Renamed the Services gallery from “Our Caregivers In Action” to “Our Caregivers In Hospitals”. Added Hospitals Partnership to the footer Our Services column on every page. Uploaded 6 new real photos from the doc and used every one — Home Cleaning, Basic Cooking, Marketing & Groceries, and Household Errands duty cards now all have a photo, the Hospitals gallery has a new wheelchair-outdoors shot, and the Real Moments grid now shows the supermarket-cart shot.

What the client said What was done about it
To add disclaimer to website. (Followed by the full Hands That Care / MOM medical / biodata-accuracy / errors-and-omissions / word-of-mouth disclaimer text.) Built a dedicated Disclaimer page with four cards: Pre-Employment Medical Examination (MOM 2-week rule, 4 infectious-disease screen, “not for diagnosis”), Biodata Profile Disclaimer (no warranty, no liability), No Liability for Errors, and a personal “A Note From Us” card with a feedback WhatsApp button. Page-header banner uses the same template as Contact, full nav + footer match the rest of the site, and the page is linked from the footer of every other page (Home, Services, Contact, Changelog, Disclaimer itself).
Top right change “Find A Helper” in orange background. When they click it will WhatsApp agency directly. Replaced the green “WhatsApp Us” header button with an orange “Find A Helper” button on desktop and mobile across Home, Services, Contact, Changelog, and Disclaimer. Click still opens WhatsApp at +65 8803 0818 with a pre-filled “I’d like to find a helper” message so you can see the intent at a glance.
Change NEW DAYS HOUSEKEEPER to blue to match logo colour. The hero kicker “NEW DAYS HOUSEKEEPER” now uses the brand blue (#0099d4, the logo blue) instead of the previous accent red. Same on every breakpoint.
Change Our Services in Blue background to click in. The hero “Explore Our Services” button is now a solid blue button (logo blue) instead of the red accent style. Hover darkens to the brand’s primary-dark blue. Still routes to /services/.
Indonesian helpers — add “elderly”. Myanmar helpers — add “toddler”, “and Chinese fast”, “Eat pork”, “Buddhist”, “Christian”. Indonesian Helpers: rewrote the description to add elderly companionship alongside infant/toddler care, kept the “does not eat pork” nuance, and added a tag row: Infant & toddler care · Elderly companionship · Cooks pork (does not eat) · Predominantly Muslim.

Myanmar Helpers: rewrote to highlight both elderly and toddler care, that they pick up English and Chinese fast, and that they eat pork (no restriction). Added a tag row: Elderly & toddler care · English & Chinese learners · Eats pork (no restriction) · Buddhist or Christian.
Change “Our Caregivers In Action” (annotated to “In Hospitals Training”). Renamed the Eldercare gallery label from “Our Caregivers In Action” to “Our Caregivers In Hospitals”. Added a new wheelchair-outdoors photo into the gallery so the gallery now reads as a true hospital + post-discharge care set.
Add nice photos under Home Cleaning, Cooking, Marketing, Household Errands. All four duty cards now have a photo banner at the bottom: Home Cleaning (helper cleaning glass with squeegee), Basic Cooking (kitchen group training, replacing the previous one), Marketing & Groceries (helper picking fresh produce at the supermarket), and Household Errands (helper walking children home from school). Used 5 of the 6 photos you sent in the doc; the 6th (supermarket cart) was added to the Real Moments gallery on Home so all 6 photos appear somewhere on the site.
Add Hospitals Partnership under Our Services. Added Hospitals Partnership as a third item under the “Our Services” footer column on Home, Services, Contact, Changelog, and Disclaimer. Link anchors to /services/#hospitals-partnership — the existing Hospital Training Partnership section was retitled “Hospitals Partnership” to match the wording in the doc.

Technical notes (also done)

  • Uploaded 6 new media items to the library from the May 2026 amendment doc: nd-helper-home-cleaning, nd-helpers-cooking-group-training, nd-helper-marketing-groceries-fresh, nd-helper-school-pickup-errands, nd-helper-wheelchair-elderly-outdoor, nd-helper-supermarket-cart-shopping.
  • Added a .btn-find-helper orange button style (background #f57c1a, hover #d96a0d) to all five page stylesheets so the new CTA matches across header desktop and mobile.
  • Added id="hospitals-partnership" to the Hospital Training Partnership section so footer links scroll to it cleanly.
  • Added a Disclaimer link beside Privacy Policy in the footer-bottom strip on every page.
  • Patched and rebuilt deployments for Home (page 2), Services (page 8), Contact (page 9), and Revision Changelog (page 51); deployed Disclaimer (new page) and a new Privacy Policy page at /privacy-policy/ (PDPA-compliant — covers data collection, MOM/embassy disclosure, retention, your rights, DPO contact). The footer Privacy Policy link previously 404’d; it now resolves cleanly.
Revision 3

Contact form wired up to email submissions directly to your inbox

01 May 2026 · Launched 20:15 SGT

Summary

Quick functional fix following the brand refresh. The Contact page form was previously a layout placeholder — submissions had nowhere to go. We’ve now connected it to our Lead Capture system so every enquiry sent through the site arrives in your inbox at [email protected]. Verified live with a test submission; everything routes correctly.

What the client said What was done about it
Internal review — the Contact page form needed to be wired up so enquiries actually reach the New Days inbox at [email protected], instead of just sitting there as a layout element. Form is now live. Every submission on the “Send Us a Message” form goes straight to [email protected]. Captures: Full Name, Email, Phone / WhatsApp, Service of Interest (Elderly Care / Childcare & Infant Care / General Domestic Help / Other), and Message. The submit button shows a “Sending…” state during the request and resets the form on success with a thank-you confirmation. Verified live with a test submission — the system confirmed the route was correct and an email landed in your inbox.

Technical notes (also done)

  • Created the Reputifly client account for [email protected] so the lead routing system recognises the inbox.
  • Form preserves all existing styling, the “required” validation on Name / Email / Phone, and the privacy note under the submit button.
  • No auto-reply enabled — submitters do not get an automated email back. We can flip that on later if you want.
  • Contact page redeployed and site cache flushed across WordPress, Reputifly render cache, and SiteGround SuperCacher.
  • Login credentials for your Reputifly inbox were sent over Telegram. Save them — the password is only retrievable that one time.
Revision 2

Brand refresh, contact update, Hospital Training section, and more personal photos

01 May 2026

Summary

Lightened the brand — primary blue brightened from dark navy to a friendly logo-matching blue, WhatsApp buttons turned green (per WhatsApp’s actual brand), and the heavy dark footer replaced with a light blue scheme. Updated contact number to 8803 0818 and email to [email protected] across the site. Indonesian helper description amended to remove the halal note and add the “fair little English / handles pork dishes but does not eat pork” nuance. New Hospital Training Partnership section added under Services. Five fresh real-life helper photos integrated, plus a new “Real Moments” gallery on Home and a Photo Strip on Contact for a more personal feel. Maid Posting/Search Maid system intentionally deferred (separate scope).

What the client said What was done about it
Can change dark blue above to light blue to match our logo or something bright but not dark blue? Primary brand blue lightened from #005a87 to #0099d4 — a brighter, friendlier logo-matching tone. Added supporting tokens --nd-primary-light for soft backgrounds and --nd-primary-dark for hover states. Applied site-wide via design tokens.
WhatsApp can be Green and not Red? Introduced WhatsApp green (#25d366, the official WhatsApp brand color) as a dedicated .btn-whatsapp class. Every WhatsApp CTA on Home, Services, and Contact now uses this green — the red accent (#da053e) is reserved for non-WhatsApp accents like badges and kickers.
Can we have light blue background instead of black? Looks quite heavy. Footer recolored from dark slate to light blue (var(--nd-primary-light)) with dark-slate text, blue headings, and gray-to-blue link hovers. Visually much lighter without losing the brand presence.
WhatsApp number is 8803 0818. Email is [email protected]. Phone number updated globally: 8803 0818 in header CTA, footer, contact cards, side widgets, all wa.me/6588030818 links, and FAQ. Email updated: [email protected] in footer, contact card, mailto links.
Above introduction is good but may need to amend little. No need halal food. Indonesian speaks fair little English they can handle pork but cannot eat pork. Can try to add in similar differences to help employers decide nationality better. Indonesian helper card rewritten: removed all halal references. New traits: warm and culturally adaptable, speaks fair little English, strong with infant care and toddler routines, can handle pork dishes but does not eat pork themselves, often has prior Singapore experience. Myanmar card refreshed in parallel: gentle, soft-spoken, eldercare-suited, quick learners, strong work ethic. Same nuanced copy now appears in the Contact FAQ.
Under Services can add Hospital Training to align with our caregivers in action with hospital photos that we send for trainings. We collaborate with hospitals to send helpers to trainings for eldercare. Built a brand-new Hospital Training Partnership section on the Services page. 4-feature grid covers Real Hospital Exposure, Medication & Safety Awareness, Mobility & Transfer Skills, and Compassionate Communication. Paired with a 4-photo gallery (1 hero + 3 thumbnails) using the actual hospital training photos the client sent. New FAQ #6 on Contact also explains the program.
Can add more photos to the page please. (Plus a folder of fresh helper photos sent over WhatsApp.) Uploaded 5 new real client photos (IDs 52–56): helper carrying toddler outdoors on Singapore street, 5-helper kitchen training session, helper hugging elderly auntie, helpers grocery shopping, masked cooking-recipe training session. Added: a new “Real Moments” 6-photo gallery on Home, a Photo Strip on Contact, an extra side image in the Contact form column, photos in Eldercare and Childcare galleries on Services, a duty photo on the Cooking helper-duty card, a 2-photo training split, and a warm hug photo in the Home About section. Total real photos used across the site: 17.
Is it compulsory to put your logo in my page? Haha. Removed the agency attribution row from the footer. Footer bottom is now a clean copyright line with a Privacy Policy link — no third-party branding.
Can indicate CONTACT/FAQ or BLOG/FAQ heading. Up to you. People usually add FAQ at Blog or Contact. I am fine with either. FAQ remains on Contact (per Revision 1). Page title already reads “Contact & FAQs” — making the dual purpose explicit in the title tag and document head.
Can add SEARCH MAID icon so that employers can click to see maid profiles after registration. (MOM regulation: profiles cannot be publicly displayed; viewers must register.) Sample 5 pages then I slowly add profiles myself. Intentionally not implemented in this revision. The maid posting / Search Maid system is a multi-page feature with custom post types, registration gating, and admin profile management. It will be quoted and built as its own scope to ensure it is done properly per MOM regulation requirements.

Also done (not requested)

  • Added --nd-whatsapp and --nd-whatsapp-dark design tokens so WhatsApp green is consistent and themeable.
  • Differentiator cards on Home now have a 4-photo thumbnail strip below them — reinforces the “real helpers, real care” angle.
  • All photo galleries use aspect-ratio + object-fit: cover so layouts never break across image dimensions.
  • Contact form “Service of Interest” dropdown updated to drop Confinement Nanny (already removed Revision 1) and reflect current focus.
  • Revision 2 changelog entry prepended (this entry).
Revision 1

Major restructure based on client WhatsApp feedback

17 April 2026

Summary

Consolidated site structure from 5 pages to 4 (Home absorbed About; Contact absorbed FAQ). Removed Confinement Nanny service — now focused purely on Elderly Care and Childcare, matching the client’s actual operational focus. Added Helper Nationalities (Indonesian & Myanmar), Training Program section, and real client photos throughout. Removed office-location emphasis to reflect the client’s direct-to-home service model since COVID.

What the client said What was done about it
I quite like bliss helper. Their page very bright and a lot of helpers to see (this let employers have a glimpse of our helpers indirectly which other employers selected). Redesigned Home with a bright aesthetic. Added a prominent Helper Showcase grid as Section 2, featuring 4 real helper photos (toddler bonding, elderly walker, infant feeding, toddler play). Employers can now see real helpers immediately, matching the Bliss Helper reference.
FAQ and contact form can put together? Save space. FAQ consolidated into Contact. Contact form + info cards sit at the top, followed by a 10-question FAQ accordion. All in one scroll — no separate FAQ page needed.
Home and about can put together? About page merged into Home. Home now includes an integrated “About New Days” section covering MOM license, values, stats, and commitment. About page (ID 7) trashed. About link removed from nav menu.
Services is important. We do not do confinement nanny but focus in Singapore aging population (elderly care) and childcare/infant care only. Confinement Nanny service removed entirely. Eldercare now leads as Service 1 with full subcategories (Nursing, Personal Care, ADL) and a 6-image real-care gallery. Childcare as Service 2 with subcategories (Infant, Toddler, Developmental) and a 4-image gallery. Home cleaning and basic cooking moved to an Included Helper Duties 4-column grid — no longer headline services.
Thinking to have little introduction of Indonesians and Myanmar nationality. Added Helper Nationalities section to both Home and Services. Two-column cards: Indonesian helpers (warm, culturally adaptable, English + Malay, experienced with infants & elderly) and Myanmar helpers (gentle, soft-spoken, quick learners, excellent for eldercare). Each card has trait bullets and a brand-colored top border.
Actually no need mention locations because our strength is we send helpers directly to employers house since covid. Office address emphasis removed. Google Maps embeds deleted from Contact. 2 Balestier Road address removed from footer. Added a dedicated “We Come To You” banner on Contact explaining the direct-to-home service since COVID.
Provide few days training before deployment which is different from the rest. Added dedicated Training Program section to both Home and Services. Features the real cooking-training photo. Lists 7 training areas: Singapore home cooking, mobility assistance, medication awareness, infant safety, English/Mandarin phrases, home safety, cultural acclimation. Notes 3–7 day duration.
You think background can have our model helper and baby photo? We want to focus in helpers not so much employers photos. Hero background replaced with real client photo — helper carrying smiling baby, looking at ducks outdoors. Hero now entirely helper-focused. Helper Showcase grid directly below shows 4 more real helpers in action.
If you don’t mind I spam you a little with our photos real life our own helpers. Uploaded 8 new real client photos to WordPress media library (IDs 38–45): helper + baby outdoors, “Auntie is my bestie” toddler bonding, elderly walker at home, infant feeding, toddler slide play, hospital bedside engagement, walking assistance, cooking training. Combined with 4 prior hospital-care photos (IDs 34–37), that’s 12 real photos now used across the site. Pexels stock photos replaced where a real photo existed for that context.

Also done (not requested)

  • Navigation menu simplified from 5 to 4 items: Home / Services / Blog / Contact.
  • Archive blog page bottom padding added (80px desktop, 80px mobile) — fixed post cards sitting too close to the footer.
  • All pages live-verified post-deploy (rendered HTML, section counts, no marker leaks, no Balestier references, no Confinement references, no About link in nav).
  • Cache flushed across WordPress object cache, transients, Reputifly render cache, and SiteGround SuperCacher.
  • Mobile-responsive: every grid has a @media (max-width: 768px) breakpoint.
  • ASCII-safe HTML across all pages — special characters use HTML entities (&, —, ’) to prevent WordPress mangling.
