    Just had a look at the site - what's up with so many families requiring Swedish nannies??

    And is it politicaly correct to ask for a nanny that hasnative English language??

    Tuk Tuk Tuk, law suit waiting to happen, am going to email those agencies and point out all kind of discrimination laws

    Yes you could earn £7.50 an hour and you never know you might get to sleep with Jude Law.

    been doing the job for free for the past 17 years - got 2 kids of my own !! I enjoy being with kids a lot more than being with adults.

    speaking of shoes I have a problem with my toe (called Ingrown Toenail) so can't wear pointy shoes for a while
