I don't personally know her but according to our Ayi that we all absolutely adored, she is the same just a few years older. I know that she has worked for an American family in Jinqiao before but doesn't speak any English. She would like to be full-time but not live in. I didn't ask about her salary expectations but I assume they would be very reasonable. If you are interested, please contact Li Xia (our former Ayi) on 13248166109. She doesn't speak any English. Her sister's name is Li Fong, they are from Jiangsu province. I will be happy to answer any questions but, unfortunately, will only be able to comment on our Ayi, not her sister. Thank you.

She is a lovely quiet lady who looks like an athlete! She rides 1 hour on a bike to come to us in the French Concession!(She lives out near the Zoo in Hongqiau). She is a very good cleaner and has been helping me look after my two children (1&3 years old). She is very good but does not have a word of English. This is a problem for me as my Chinese is very limited. She is lovely with my children. I would like to reccommend Xiao Wu, especially to someone who can speak some Chinese.

And I have a problem with the ayi posting. But will ty again later. Sorry about this. I'm gonna be honest with you.... She is an excellent cleaner and that's why we fight to keep her as our cleaner. Can not speack English. Can take care of my son age 8months from time to time, however I'm not sure if you can leave her with the baby and go out all day though. I can never do that with any ayi, so it might not be fair to say she can't do the job. But you can not find a better cleaner and I am fussy. She is a fast worker and alwyas find something to do around the house. Also a very good at ironing. PM me if you are interested. Oh, Pudong only please.

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!
