Fiilipina Nanny from The Philippines!

[Piamed]

Hi All

A quick question if I may:

Pia and I are contemplating availing ourselves of the services of a nanny. We would prefer someone from the Philippines and have a particular cousin in mind who is currently residing in Manila and we would love to help out. The question relates to how we might get her over here.

Thoughts and suggestions appreciated please.

Hi Joe. How are you? We are really well thank you. How are Team Bloggs :) Thanks for the link.

Thanks again Joe. Perhaps we will have to look into getting her on an educational course if that is still an option. If not, we may have to recruit someone based here.

Hope your misses and kids are doing good :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Hi Piamed :Hellooo:

You'll have to find one here who is looking for a job, you have to pay the minimum wage though. According to the Daily Mail you can get into trouble keeping them locked in the cellar. :biggrin:

Fantastic Joe. It's been a long journey but so worth it. Great news.

Hi Keith

You are totally right. The key considerations are that they are sweet. kindhearted and can be trusted with our children. We would also like someone that can help them with their learning/ homework etc.
