Our nanny's sister Ms. Sonia Myrie is looking for employment as a nanny and/or housekeeper. She worked for the same family the last 11 years (from 2006 to 2017) as a housekeeper/nanny but that family no longer needs her help as the children are older and both parents are no longer working outside of the home. Ms. Sonia is open to part-time or full-time work. She can be reached at 417-4292
Juliet White has worked for four families within the US Embassy community and has been with us for almost two years. She took care of our two boys (now 1 and 3) while we were living in Jamaica and they loved her so much that we took her to the U.S. with us. Juliet adores children and has a great way of engaging with them, always smiling, positive, and enthusiastic. She also kept our house clean and well-organized and prepared simple meals for the kids. Our time in the U.S. is coming to an end and Juliet will be returning to Jamaica in mid-late July. Please feel free to email or call me for a reference - [email protected] or (+1) 202-320-6645. I can also arrange a phone or Skype interview with Juliet, if desired.
