    Hi there,
    while searching the net for the nanny agency in Madrid/Spain, I came to your article posted on easyexpat.com. I do realize that you have posted your ad in april, and I also do realize that you do not have to be in Spain by now. All I would like toaskis if you know about any nanny agency or anybody that is recruiting nannies?
    Kind regards Marianna

    Hello Miriam,

    My name is Wendy Fellows. I'm from Brazil.
    Right now I'm in Boston, my mother is an English teacher in a course for foreign students.
    I was also teaching English in Brazil for a while, and then here, in U.S.A, for the same agency. And where I used to teach, I was teaching from 7 year old kids to adults.
    I've also had some experiences with being a nanny. I used to take care of a cousin of mine in Brazil. Here in Boston, I worked as a Nanny for a cousin's son, and for another woman with a 1 year old adorable son.
    My purpose to go to Spain would be to be a Nanny, as a live-in, and in my spare time, to go to some kind of Spanish course.
    I used to go to Fine Art school in Brazil, but right now I'm just trying to improve my English, in a high level course.
    I'd like to be in touch with you.
    I love the idea of being there.
    Thank you

    WENDY

    Hi there Rebecca, we are two girls planning on travelling around Spain for a while and are intereted in babysitting, we are not planning on staying for long but if you do get into any difficulties you have my e-mail.
    My name is Diane and my friends name is Jemma! Unfortunatley we have no official qualifacations but we are more them happy to help you out if you need it!
    My friend Jemma has an English police check and has done babysitting for Lincolnshire Social Services and i myself have plenty of experience with young children due to my sister having three children all under the age of four. If we can help in anyway, I'm sure it would benefit both you and us!

    Many Thanks
