There is an end to the madness in sight! I just interviewed a lovely Brazilian girl, and she is going to come in two days a week and look after the gremlins for me so I can get some real work done! I am sooooo relieved! And she's even happy to fold washing so I might be able to dig my couch up from under the laundry pile. Woohoo! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Oh, was that another sofa in the living room? I thought it was just one big mountain of clean laundry! (Like I should talk -- we haven't seen the surface of my dining table since February!) |

I would as a Nanny do washing and folding and ironing but can only work school hours in the Howick area opr Dannemora or Bucklands Beach ares,
My sister has had a live in aupair they are cheaper than a nanny and still expected to look after children and do washing housework etc. another friend also uses aupairs |
