Hi A.,
I tried to answer your post earlier today but it hasn't shown up so if you get this twice, I'm sorry.
I have a great part time nanny. She looks after my 1 year old and 4 year old and I am expecting a another in a few weeks.
She was a referral from another mom in my daughter's pre-school class. She is great wth kids - my son (1 year old) has special needs, and speaks both Spanish and English.
She is very responsible, always takes the initiative (meaning I don't have to ask her to pack the diaper bag, feed the kids, etc., etc.) she just knows what to do - and my kids adore her.
I have her on Mondays and Fridays, but our schedule is flexible and I can always switch out days and times if needed.
Another thing - she cleans! That is, when she gets time to. It is not a mandatory part of her position at our house, but she'll do it if the kids are otherwise occupied.
Heres' her information: Lesdi Castillio ###-###-####
Feel free to e-mail me if you have further questions.
Good Luck, K.
