Good evening mamas.
Please I need input from mamas who have hired/paid help...or who knows people that do.
I have the following questions to help me make a decision on what to do.

1...What's the age range of the nanny
2..what is the pay range
3..Are they live in or non live in.
3a. If none live in, what is their work time?
3b. If live in, how many days off do they get in a Month?
4. Is their duty strictly taking care of your LO or do they do housechores too.

Big authors come there. We once had JP Clark and Woke Soyinka to address the children at Lagos Book Fair. This year, Ake Arts and Book Festival is bringing in other big guys.

Mynd44:

Are you going for Ake?

Onegai:


Not unless I find someone to go with.

Thanks a million! My lo is just four months. Bt i will prepare it and take it mysef. Someone has told me abt dat bt i ignored it. Seeing it here sounds real

AlphaHandMaiden:


Just keep the eye (s) clean.


Wipe with moistened cotton wool/ pads.

Dip cotton wool in some warm water and wipe one eye per cotton wool.
Wipe from inner to outer, once and discard the cotton wool after each wipe.

If it is a big piece of cotton wool you can fold once and wipe the same eye from inner to outer then discard.
Wash your hands before and after wiping the eyes and regularlly

Also try to stop him scratching or rubbing his eyes..... now that is the hard part. Also try to wipe his hands as often as you can to keep it clean.

If he has recently had a cold, it could also be a factor as the cold virus can actually cause conjuctivitis if it gets into the eyes.

He may also have a temperature so have some infant paracetamol on hand and use only if required.
It should clear after a few days.

If you dont see any improvement after about 3 or so says please go See your doctor.

You can as well squeeze or boil to drink. But I will prefer boiling to squeezing sha cos of bacteria. When you r cooking it as soup, don't hesitate to add orisirisi (assorted) inside, the whole family can take it as well, especially your DH will appreciate it cos it fights pile, and you will be at the receiving end when DH is pile-free!!!!

Good morning mamas.

My first time speaking on the thread but make I confess I ve been a silent follower since I put to bed, very educative thread.i hail all mamas, may God bless our efforts over the little ones Amen.

Age-my nanny is around 35-38 yrs old

25k but will be reviewed in six months

Non live in.7.30 to 6pm

She helps with house chores.the main focus is the baby but she's been really helpful with house chores.

Hello mum,

I have been a silent follower for a while. Shout out to all the mums and babies in the house.

I am in a dilemma. My current nanny is leaving mid December and not coming back. She is 23 and her dad wants her to come get married. Even after all the counselling it feel on deaf ears. My baby will be 14 months by dec. My job is actually hectic and my closing time is not predictable ( believe me i am seriously searching for another, at this rate sef, i do not mind a pay cut).

So am torn on the next course of action. There is a creche in my estate, do i enroll her come January? or still have her stay at home?

Either ways i will still have to get a new nanny, and am scared about that, cos i will be away for the better part of the day.

Also, if i enroll her in the school, i will still need a nanny to get her ready for school,drop her off and pick her up in the afternoon.

With my old nanny, my sister was around to ease her into how we do thgs and also watch over her. But my sister has been called for NYSC and she could get posted to any state.

I am just confused.

Dont even bother to ask about her father ( my advice dont marry who you parents advised against, Love na just hype, God just consoled me with my little one )

I will also appreciate contacts for nanny agencies.

Thank you, apologies for the gbagauns, typing this in a meeting.

Please mamas you all have to help oo.lol. for the sake of that cutie. See pic

ozycy:

Awww, see this cute princess looking for a nanny, pls I want to be her nanny

How did you get your recent nanny?
You can go through trusted agency but there is usually commission. Which state are you in?
I guess your nanny was good, another option is to ask her if she can get anyone trusted and capable that's if she knows anyone.
I hope you will get someone soon .
And I will advise you get someone now so the old nanny will put her through and watch her, she can give you better feedback about the new person if she's sincere.

wanney:


The nanny is inevitable.

May God grant you wisdom and favor.

dtush:

@ozycy, awww. thanks dear. I got her through an agent. I have placed a call through, but was informed they have none for now and all their nannies are taking a Christmas break. I stay in Lagos (Gbagada and work on the island), so a live in is my best bet. I would love to get one now, where to get is the palava. as regards my old nanny, she just genuinely liked my baby dats y i would have been more comfortable with her
