hi, I am looking for a nanny for my 2-mo old daughter.  does anyone have any tips/experience in finding a nanny, or know of one available?  tks.

Hello

I'm an English extremely fit 46yr old baby nanny of over 20yrs and more than 30 babies and children so far.
My experience includes maternity nursing, live in baby nanny, full time day nanny, and night nanny and I've cared for three sets of twins,some disabled and/or autistic babies and also have plenty of experience with older children, and get on well with kids and teenagers.
Ilive in London and used to be a TV actress ( feel free to contact 'Emma Wray"- stage name, where you will find a CV of my acting career and photographs of me) but I took 2 yrs out to travel around with world with the money I'd made. During that time I also worked with Thai children in an orphanage and taught African children English as a foreign language.It was an amazing, invaluable experience. From then on I wanted to work with children and find it much more rewarding.I also traveled extensiveley in South America so speak basic Spanish which I am happy to teach when the time is right.
I'm also very musical, my main instrument being the guitar mainly because it's portable, and I've passed this on to lots of children I've worked with - and I'm partial to many a nursery rhyme (or modern'pop') for singing and dancing.
I have many references an enhanced CRB and St John Ambulance First Aid for Babies and Children. Most of my references are only hard copies which I will bring if we agree to meet up though if you write back I'll send the ones I have on file.
I look forward to hearing from you with a view to meeting yourself and the rest of the family.
Yours

Jill

Hello,

My friends and I will be in HCMC very soon and we are hoping to be able to work part time, or full time. We can be nannies, too, even for minimum rates. If other filipinas are offering $600 or $500 for babysitting, we can be paid less than that, as long as we can provide excellent service and our employers are satisfied with our work.
