Loving nanny from the Philippines, who has worked for the same AU-Park-
family in the past ten-and-a-half years (and helped out at several
others), is looking for a new half- or full-time position (live-in or
live-out). No driving. Excellent references!
Please call Nicole for further information: 202-3638293.
