I don't think this is the Nigerian one however, I am disappointed you gave her this info for free, she would have paid a sound lawyer to get it.

Nigerians are too ignorant to be discussing with.
nobody reads or listens to anything meaningful except African magic and Davido.

She actually believed her child will get Hiv because the nanny has it, if this is not buffoonery whatelse can you call it?

Should I say more? people who bathe themselves to death for Ebola you think they will grow sense overnight?
classical dumb people!!

While I appreciate your valid point and the advocacy for rights of people living with HIV, I don't appreciate your tone. For such a sensitive role, there should be full disclosure and that's where the agency was negligent.
Ordinarily, the HIV should not pose any risk to the baby but who's to say the woman could not be diabolical?

Anyways my aim is to warn fellow mothers about bad nanny services and that they take all precautions necessary when hiring.

You should name the agency and where its located if u really want to help people. With this thread u av only told a 'story' and alot of people can still fall into the trap of this so-called nanny agency bcoz dey dnt even knw which one it is.

Oh I mentioned the name in the title, the agency is located at Okota, along Ikotun road. It's a red plaza just after Okota round about. The name again is "ST. CATHERINE'S NANNY AND MAID SERVICES"

Yeah, a real eye opener o.
Spoke with the agency about refunding my money jeje or we go to court and she said I should go ahead. So I bet that is the next step since she has no grasp on the gravity of her negligence.

Seriously thanking God i didn't do ijebu and just ran the tests regardless...i have turned green, blue, black, red! Still figuring how I can get the agency to not hurt others, hence this post.

This post is not to launch a smear campaign on the agency, but just to contribute my quota in warning other mothers out there.

So I was introduced to the agency by a family member, with the hope that the agency would have properly trained nannies and proper vetting would be done on the nannies. I chose to go with an agency that claims to train and properly vet their nannies even to the extent of ensuring the nannies provide guarantors, since all those small girls from upcountry have plenty wahala; and a motherly nanny who has had children is always a best fit anyday.

We kuku registered with the agency (N15,000) and were told it would take 2weeks to get prospects that i would interview.

The first red flag should have been the number of times i had to call the "madam" of the agency before she finally picked. I filled the form at the agency and indicated that i wanted a nanny that has kids, would be a live out nanny and is between 30 and 40yrs old. The next flag was also the delay in getting prospects (after i had paid the registration fee o), it took more than 4 weeks and several frustrating calls before I was told to come to their office at Okota to meet with the prospects.

Okay nau, I got there and had to wait another hour before the madam showed up, claiming there was traffic and that they don't normally open on saturday...blah blah. Long story short, no nanny was present, i only looked through their profiles and was asked to pick one. They said their staff would bring the nanny to my house before she officially resumes work- didn't happen. She eventually gave the nanny my number and asked her to call me, after another week had almost elapsed and several more calls.

Resumption day, the nanny didn't show, and when i called the agency and was given the nanny's number, to direct her to my house (hmmmmn)! I called and the nanny and she says "my husband say make i no work this month", and i'm like ahn ahn! How come the agency sent you to me? And she explains that she need the month off to attend to her sickness...ehn! Sickness ke....turns out she was receiving hormonal treatment in order to conceive. Not a problem but I thought the agncy would have found out about this during the screening right?

Geun geun! i called the agency and told them what happened and they apologised and said they had no clue she was going to back out like that.

Replacement nanny was meant to resume the next week, Monday morning-she no show. Same cycle of calling the nanny and she claimed she needed to rest so she would resume the next day. I took the nanny for medical screening that same day she resumed and tests confirmed she was pregnant!
Ok, not a problem-afterall she was married with 5 kids and willing to work, but the agency should have told me right? Same day she starts complaining about the agency and how they take almost half of the money paid by the employers, leaving the nanny with peanuts. She also mentioned that the agency did not conduct any tests on her and just sent her to me....hmmm red flag 3 abi is it 4?

After one month, she suddenly has to go and visit her sick mother on a monday morning and doesn't know when she would be back and said i should call the agency. I did call and was told i would get another replacement. This time the replacement took almost 4 weeks to arrive and this was after several calls and as madam hardly picks her phone, you can only imagine my frustration.

Final straw, they sent a much older woman who claimed to be 48, I had interviewed her and she seemed ok and then i ran my medical check after she resumed as she din't come with her test results as the agency had promised. Lo and behold, the 15k collecting agency sent me someone who had HIV to be my baby's nanny. Worst part is the madam didn't show any remorse for sending a nanny to a client without running tests. The madam claimed "the woman was elderly, so she couldn't have known she had HIV and that it could happen to anyone"

As I type this caveat, the agency has not gotten back to me on an amicable settlement on the matter. I think from all the story, the agency is one to be avoided as the professional skills for dealing with such a sensitive service seem to be non existent. I have fashied my 15k registration, but i thought to let people know one of the agencies out there that i wouldn't recommend, from my experience. They will just collect your money and never provide the service paid for with the care and dilligence expected.

Hi guys, pls send to me too, will appreciate.

Thanks

SMVNEH @topic and the minister. (shaking my very Nigerian educated head)!

I think i would get bored and walk away(always works with a smart gal who knows ure tryna bail)

I am not in a good frame of mind right now and cannot ask you to wait

My heart is in a safe deposit, with my ex!

I admire ur courage but y d internet, that has a lot of crazy written on it

its such guys that can never make up thier minds on the kinda woman they want coz they cnt appreciate a gud woman even if she was standin on his head coz he's too busy puttin up appearances. sooooo, shallow.

swiftycool:
C'mon man u know he aint feeling her, i mean men don't trip because a girl tripped first
he's just bothered about what he might have missed (a f#*k), and wants to see if the opportunity is still up. Guys simply just don't fall 4 chicks because she fell 4 em first, only girls do that!

i suggest he checks himself well to admit this and if he really thinks he's in love let him try and just start up as casual friends and take away em dirty thoughts. If she was sweating him 4 real it will all come back, but if she doesnt, men id say he just missed a good emotionless screw and not real love! Not to worry he will survive*

Thats like, sooooooooo true, just a case of being a lil too late

Pls allow him express himself abeg. Right now i think i need a friend, no strings attached, no physical intimacy, just someone i can whine to about all that's in ma head.( i guess such people don't grow on trees anyways)

Thank you very much, would send mine
