Women train with toy babies at a maternity matron school in Beijing in October, 2016. The school provides a training program incluing childcare, early education, housekeeping, and other domestic skills. Trainees can get their vocational qualification certificates and become postnatal attendents after an eight-day course which costs 1,700 yuan ($246.6). As Chinese couples are now allowed to have two children, the demand for the service usually exceeds supply.[Photo/VCG]
