I provide their toiletries just to avoid soaps and lotions that has whitening chemicals that might cause skin allergy for Calleigh. Anyway, I'm the one bathing, feeding and putting Calleigh to sleep. So, yaya's job is to

YAYA # 1

Her name is Beverly. Referred by my cousin's yaya Marie. She started working for us 2 weeks before I gave birth to Calleigh. She's only 20 years old, 4th year high school graduate. She's from  Tanay, Rizal, she's my favorite yaya so far. She's very smart, happy person, very good in pronunciation except for "H" (etch) and na-correct naman. ^^ very good in science and math (naturuan kasi si hanz sa homework), very patient. Unfortunately, she needs to go back to Pangasinan to take care of her grandmother. She worked for us for 3 months. What I don't like about her ~ she keeps on using her cellphone kahit karga si Calleigh at nasusuka pag nasa car. whew!!!

YAYA # 2

Her name is Beth. She's Calleigh's second yaya and she's 43 years old with 2 children. She lives in Tanay and she was also referred to us by my cousin's yaya Marie. She worked for us for 4 months. What's good about her is ayaw mag day off. At first, she was yaya "BIBO" bibong bibo talaga. Aside from taking care of Calleigh, she helps with other household chores. But that's only for a month. The following months e sakit na sa ulo.

examples:

1. swaying and dancing Calleigh pag pinapatulog.

2. watching tagalog movies to the point na kahit gising si Calleigh mas nakatingin pa sa TV kesa sa alaga niya.

3. lahat ng gawin nya nangangatwiran, nahuli mo mali ang ginawa nagpapalusot pa.

4. ATTITUDE - 1st time flu shot, went to her room at di na lumabas, kinabukasan na ulit. walang pasabi. nag ka- ALLERGY daw sya when we checked her arms halatang kinamot lang para mamula then nagkulong na ulit sa kwarto. bastos!!!

5. not sure - pero nawalan ng necklace yung sister ko and watch si Mama C. I checked on her stuff before umalis di ko na nakita. What I saw was the soaps, toothpaste, shampoos na binili ko at di ginamit. Even scotch brite and downy antibac na pang linis ng room floor namin. arrrgggghhh!

6. TSIMOSA, USUSERA ~ pag meron bisita mas una pa siya nakikipag kwentuhan kulang nalang ibigay si Calleigh sa akin para ako mag alaga.

7. 1 week bago umails nakitaan ni Mama C meron knife under her pillow. Yaiks!

 8. She's a liar and mapag imbento ng story. At aminado siya na lasingera daw siya, she wants to go home na daw coz gusto na niya maging tambay ulit. Praning!!!!

9. Sings bahay kubo and tong tong pakitong kitong for Calleigh. hay!

10. Tambay talaga, laging nakataas ang paa pag hindi hawak si Calleigh at habang hinihimas ang mga daliri sa paa. Waaaaahhh!
11. She's a MIMAY - Mimay means - Me and my stories!!! Wtf!!!

YAYA # 3

 Her name is Arcely. She's from Tanay too, cousin of Yaya Marie (nag rerecommend sa amin) she's 33 years old with 2 children (teenagers).

Good traits:

1. Very maasikaso kay Calleigh

2. Follows all my instructions except for DAY OFF

10 days after she's requesting for Day off and I allowed her since we're going to Angono, Rizal. 3 days and 2 nights na day off ha. take note!!! okay fine! Friday morning umalis, Sunday na wala pa din. Tuesday na ng lunch bumalik dahil nagkasakit daw siya. FINE!

2 DAYS AFTER... she needs to go home daw kasi she's worried kasi yung anak niyang babae pinapabayaan ng asawa niya. Isasama nalang daw niya para mag trabaho sa amin. Babalik din agad within the day. Go ate!!! di na bumalik!!!

YAYA # 4

No photo of her. but this is how she looks like ^^ hehehe!

Her name is Arlyn. She's 19 years old and married. She's from Batasan and was referred by a friend. She's thinner than me, small girl with tattoos, she smokes and bunggal ^^. Good points - she knows baby sign language so I don't have to teach her. Yun lang!!! After 2 days, she quits! Why? - she's pregnant and di daw niya kaya si Calleigh sa bigat. whew! buti nalang dahil di ko alam pano sabihin na ayaw ko siya.

YAYA # 5

Her name is Adelpha. She was referred to us by Julie (stay out helper who works for my in-laws for years now) Adelpha is 35 years old with 1 child (9years old). She's a stay out yaya, she works from 6am to 9pm. Adelpha is okay too. Happy person, very maasikaso kay Calleigh and follows our rules. She worked for 13 days only, why? she needs to stop working because walang magbabantay sa anak niya dahil umuwi na kapatid niya sa Samar.

Adelpha left September 23. The next day Yaya # 4 is back...

Finally!! her reason kung bakit di siya bumalik: Inasikaso ang pamilya, kinausap ang asawa, naglaba at nagsakit. Whatever! she owes me and pamasahe pa lang pati pag balik sa amin e ako pa ang may gastos. Di taxi pa ang lula mo.

September 27 - Arcely: Ate masakit ang ulo ko my paracetamol ka ba? (prompting ang yaya, binigyan ng gamot, deadma na ako at nagtrabaho)

September 28 - Arcely: Ate, nilalagnat ako at nanginginig. Ako'y ginaw na ginaw. (Binigyan ng gamot at pinag pahinga. Di na pinagtrabaho buong araw)

Hapon na....

Arcely: Ate, ako'y uuwi muna at di ko talaga kaya. 

Me: magpaaalam ka kay Jay at wala akong pera para pamasahe mo. (nagpaalam at ayun umalis, babalik daw siya pag galing niya) 

Ugh! Kelan kaya yun? anyway, sila ang stress ng buhay ko ngayon. Di ko na alam ang gagawin ko. Kaloka! ^^ Wala nanaman yaya si Calleigh. =(
