My family will be traveling to the USA for the month of August. We’ll be gone Aug 4th-31st. Our Chinese Ayi is available for full time or part time work during this period of time. She speaks some English, and is excellent with small children. She currently takes care of my 9 month old and 2.5 year old. She is reliable and very helpful. She cooks Chinese food very well, cleans a little and does some laundry, but mostly focus on the children. (I have a different Ayi who does deeper cleaning, laundry and ironing twice a week.) Ideally, she prefers the Puxi area (I live in Jing An) but would be willing to consider the Pudong area too.
Helen is 45 years old. She is used to western families and follows instructions very well. Honestly, she is a very very intelligent woman and i often differ to her experience and ask her opinion for daily dealings. She has worked for me for over one year.
If you are interested, please contact me at +86 158 0217 4195 or raleba@gmail.com Or you can contact her directly at +86 133 4194 8128 or huyuezhang2002@yahoo.com.cn
Thank you!

Hi Mamas,
My aiyi is available immediately. She has been with us for 1 1/2. She did all the cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, pays for bills, etc. My mother-in-law taught her quite a few dishes so she is able to cook pretty well. She is quiet and trustworthy. She was able to take care of my 21 month son occasionnally - I felt completely at ease and assured that he would be ok.
She is in Puxi and is looking for a full-time or partime. Please contact Xiao Lei 134020602994. She does not speak much English.
Good luck,
Olivia

I want to recommend Allen Ayi to anyone looking for an excellent ayi. She was our kids ayi last summer for a few months and she was great. When our old ayi came back, she took another job, working in antique store and she has been working there until now. However, she likes children a lot and she would like to go back to working with kids.
In the time that she worked with us, I found Allen to be great with my children (they were 3 and 1 at that time), very friendly and reliable. I was working full time and she took care of everything regarding the kids. She is from Xian, has been in Shanghai 3 years and has worked for another American family with 2 children before we met her. She speaks very good English and Mandarin Chinese. She is 26 years old and in very good physical shape.
Allen is basically a baby sitter, she will do some light house work, but not too much. When she was working for us, we had another ayi who came to do the cleaning and the same at her previous job.
You can contact her at 131 6200 6322, in English or Chinese if you are looking for a baby sitter.
If you would like to ask more about her, you can also contact me at 134 7269 0707 and I will be happy to give you references.

Hui Sann:
Hi!,
We are leaving shanghai for good in mid Oct back to Singapore. We have an excellent live-in ahyi that worked for us for 3 years. My son is 3 years and she has taken care of him since a baby. She was responsible in cooking, cleaning, ironing and marketing and does a good job. We trust her very much and she is very initiative and independent worker. She doesn’t speak English. She can cook some Singaporean food and has adjusted her cooking to suit our taste buds ( less oil, less salt and more healthy food ). She is also a fast worker and can multi-task to take care of my son and maintain the place clean. She is from Hubei and can only accept live-in positions. Prior to working for us, she worked for additional 3-4 years in shanghai as live-in ayi. email: kwokhs@hotmail.com or mobile : 13671622026

NEED AN AYI OR DRIVER?
We are heading home after two years in Shanghai and I would love to find a new job for our Ayi’s and Driver.
DRIVER
Kenny has been our driver for two years. As well as being just lovely, he is a very careful driver and speaks English!! I highly recommend him to any person or family requiring a driver in Shanghai. Ph: 1390 1990 853
PHILLIPINO AYI
Veronica has worked for us for almost 2 years. She is wonderful with my two kids (2 ½ yrs and 7 months) and runs my household including all the cleaning, washing and shopping. She has tireless energy and is always happy. She has accompanied us on many trips and I always feel confident leaving my children with her. She is a delight to have in the house. I recommend her to anyone wanting an English speaking nanny. Ph: 1580 0381 764
CHINESE AYI
Lu Ayi has worked for us for almost 2 years. We predominantly hired her with the sole purpose of looking after our daughter and teaching her to speak Chinese. She herself speaks Mandarin (without and accent which is important if teaching your child) but she knows enough words in English to make your children feel comfortable and communication between yourselves possible. She has been a wonderful Ayi and has developed a love for our kids which is strongly reciprocated. She as been a great help around the house, pitching in with ironing or other cleaning as required. She has tireless energy for the kids and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a Chinese Ayi.
She is available for full-time or part-time work, cleaning or baby-sitting. Ph: 26993943 (Chinese) or call her daughter, Katie, for English 1360 1918 614

My English speaking part-time ayi - Daisy - is looking for more *part-time work* since a couple of her families are leaving Shanghai soon. She has many years of experience working with expat families and speaks English very well. She is available immediately and you can contact her directly (her English is that good!). She is a little in the expensive side, but for me it is totally worth it - she is VERY trustworthy (most important to me), helps with maintenance issues, shopping, a little cooking, and childcare if needed (I will be having my first baby soon and I will trust her to watch the baby from time to time). Please feel free to contact her directly, but you can also send me an email as well for a more detailed reference. Thanks! Tracy (tracyclaxton@mac.com)

Quick update (to add to my previous post if possible) - Daisy lives in on Puxi side and will not consider Pudong area at this time. Sorry for not including that important tidbit of info. Again, please feel free to contact her directly, but of course email me if you would like/need more info.
