Ms. Christine Morgan has been an excellent house keeper for my family for the past 3 years. She is very dependable,

trustworthy, and an excellent house cleaner. She has worked for many US Embassy families over the past years and

has always received the highest recommendation. She can also prepare meals. She currently has days available. I

highly recommend her. She can be reached at 407-1194. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact

me. Les deGraffenried, (577-3340).

Madge Sinclair is looking for work as a babysitter and/or helper. She is available afternoons and evenings during the school season and full time during the summer. She has worked in a pre-school for the past two years and has experi-ence babysitting for embassy families. Her contact numbers are 374-4541 and 828-3484.

Ms. Marcia Ellington has been with our family since we arrived in Kingston with our then four-month old daughter and is an excellent, experienced nanny. She has many years of experience working with the Embassy community and until recently was part-time as nanny and housekeeper for another embassy family who moved on to a new assign-ment. She is a very responsive, engaging caregiver for our daughter. She has never missed a day of work. Marcia El-lington has great initiative. She doesn’t stop at taking care of our daughter; whenever there’s a pause in childcare, like naptime, she dives right into whatever housekeeping task we need help with, from the kitchen to the laundry room, leaving us more time to do other things. She’s immediately available. To setup an interview with Marcia Elling-ton please call her at 451-0949 (mobile) or 6314138 (home). She has undergone a security background check and is cleared by RSO for domestic employment. You can also contact us at [email protected] for further reference.

Valerie McLarty-Grant is looking for work as a full time nanny/helper. Auntie Valerie filled-in for our nanny this spring, and we wish we could have kept her. She always had the house clean and organized, but more importantly she sang to, played with, fed, and loved my infant/toddler kiddos. She has a heart of gold and would be a delight to have in your house, too. Recommended by Kacee. Call Valerie at 397-9023.

Lisa Wright has worked for me as a special helper at parties (dinners, cocktails, barbeques, murder mysteries etc.) for about a year and a half. Being a self-starter, she needs very little direction and I am able to rely on her while I relax and enjoy the party! She is now also looking for day-time employment. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is highly proficient and conscientious in all she does. She has a wide range of experience in all aspects of home sci-ence, including cleaning, laundry, cooking and child care. She is very punctual, trustworthy and has good communica-tion skills. Lisa can be reached at 417-7780. Please contact me for further information at: [email protected].

Ms. Patrice Bogle “Terry” has been our part-time helper for 8 months. She is outstanding, trustworthy, and com-pletely reliable. Terry has a great personality and always has a smile on her face. She shows up on time and is ready to go to work keeping our house in beautiful condition and very well organized. She always stays on top of the laun-dry and her ironing is just excellent. Extremely flexible, Terry is always willing to try or do new things and needs very little supervision. She is currently available to work two days a week and I highly recommend her. She can be con-

tacted directly at # 351-2457.
