Mummies staying at Fernvale

Doreamon,

Talking about maids, haiz as i told u before i'll never have maid anymore after the last one. My last agent also not very good so dun dare to recommend. I believe it is pure luck.

But i do heard that the JPB one not bad. Nation charges a very high agent fees. I feel that it is all the same so dun have to pay especially high $$ for agent fees. FYI Garden Home charges $888 tat is very very high.

Sea8,
Sure .. let us know again .. see if got nice things to buy. itchy hand .. keep buying.

Hey Irin, if not many, shall we squeeze them all in the car?? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

Ya, ya, ya, gt spree must let me noe................. So many clothes, buy more oso for wat i dunno... Hehehehe.
 
Fi,

Irin and Fi : tot want to try the train?? hehehehe...
 
Hi,

My hubby can't take leave on 12 nov.
sad.gif
so i'm still thinking whether i can handle my boy alone. Oh... just to ask... r u gals bringing strollers? R we just going to Gymboree and back?

my boy usually naps until 2 plus... hmm.. i let u gals know again... i'm still mulling over it..

Fi,

Which day next week is gd for me and my boy to visit u and ur babies and ur cats?
happy.gif
Timing shd be between 3pm to 5pm... that's the window period when he's had his 1st nap and his feed. Mon is out for me though.
 
hottiemama,
I'm really not too confident in bringing them for a "smooth" train ride leh. Let me consider seriously over it 1st. hahaha.

Crayonmum,
normally we'll bring one on stroller & the other one carry in arms or carrier. If we are going for coffee or anything after that then perhaps it'll be better if you bring along a stroller. Not to worry about handling your boy alone. Think we can still help out abit.
happy.gif
 
Hi Mummies,

Actually wanted to post and ask, when will be the nxt gymboree session, cos thinking of bring my children along with you gals.

But I had an offer fm my ex-company, so maybe will be starting to work on 1st Nov...(not confirm yet)

Crayonmum, the company that I mentioned to you, "Secure Email"......!

Too bad, I shld hve join the very 1st session.
 
fi_hozali,

Will chk it out. Thanks.

Irin,

No worries, cos I also don't want to go back to my previous maid agency as they also have bad service & attitude.

Veron,

Agreed with you, employing a maid are by pure luck.

My auntie previous maid, be with her for 2yrs, but still don't know this don't know that. So my auntie didn't renew her contract aft 2yrs.

So she chose to get a new maid and she's currently with my auntie for few mths only, very flexible and alert.

Doesn't needs my auntie to guide her etc.... My auntie only told her once when she jus started working the 1st day. And she can handle her children well, eg. what time to ask them to bath, to ask them study, to prepare 3 meals for them and to make them sleep without my auntie asking her to do so.

And she does all the housework by her own timetable.

My auntie just relax only.

So believe it is pure luck.

Also agreed that Nation charges a very high agent fees as I make an survey today over the phone.

Will chk out JPB and Enne recommendation.

enne,

replied yr email already. Pls check. Thanks

:0)


1 more quesion, wat's the difference between those agencies charging at high agent fees and some agencis charging at S$1.00?

For those S$1.00 agent fee, any idea is there's other hidden cost?

Thanks

Crayonmum- re gymboree trip, dun worrie thr r lots of hands to help... Im sure ur boy will do juz fine.. If its juz gym, i normally carry them but if gng shopping or kopi aft will bring stroller. if gng by car, dun worry u can go wif me. I have a maclaren single as well so u dun have to bring urs.My bbs also usually nap till 2 plus then poor Irin n her bbs will b waiting by the road... Hehehehe.. The session starts at 3 if they dun have class aft, we can stay on..Re nxt wk, anyday is gd for me.. Bbs dun have any dates yet.. hahahaha

Doreamon- wanted to ask u but keep forgetting, did u get the milk powder in the end?
 
Doreamon,

Guess what after sending the maid off about 1 month pkus .. then I realised that she is "stealing" our moneies (coins) and kept inside a container below the basin in the kitchen!!

That day HB and I went to pack hse .. and to my surprise, saw a bag of conis hidden in a hand sew pouch inside a metal tin!

As i say maybe i am just too suay to encounter with all these problem maids. Hope that you are not as suay as me .. and really can get a good maid to help u.

So far I know of agencies they charged $88 etc. Never heard of $1 agency fees.

Do check ard .. $1 sure got hidden cost, like test entrance fees, insurance, permit, transport .. etc etc.

Good Luck ya!
 
hey Fi :

Wow! it must be a blast for all the kids that day...especially with the sesame street theme... Dan & Yazmin so cute onthe invitation card... very inviting... cutenye...

Crayonmum- went to Yew Kwang, his charges reasonable and we got back all our pics. He was very patient wif my gal.. Love his attitude.. But the whole thing is a lot of hard wk..

Her looks are exactly like my boy when he was a baby that time.

They had inherited the father's genes cos my hubby had a photo taken when he was abt 5 or 6 mths old, I took out all 3 photos,(my boy, my gal and my hubby), its jus like the "Ang Gu Kueh" mould, 3 of them looks exactly the same.

I really fainted liao!!!! Tik, I shld send in their photos to participate the looks alike contest.

hi doreamon - forget to let you know that the colors for sassari, the best that suits all kinds of clothings and colors are choc/gold, black/black, black silver & black white..

Others are funky and pastel colors which i personally find that its too light and easily get dirtied.. it alos depaends on your preference... my 1st pair is red silver...

happy.gif

thks

carmen,

Ya, Very paiseh to her. But I had chked my 'sent' folder, the email was sent! But dunno why she didn't rec'd?

Regards to the childcare, personally, I found my boy's childcare at Blk 409B Fernvale Road are not bad.

As at 1st Oct'07, they had changed their management, and now the centre are run by and known as Moriah Schoolhouse(Previously are run by Little Cottage, they do hve other branches as well, but only know 1 which is near to Rivervale Mall).

Maybe, you can also get some advise fm Amanda, cos her gal was there since 2mths old till recent Aug'07 promoted to toddler on 13 Aug'07.

As my boy are K2, so maybe the teachers are diff and they also handle differently.

Now, I still cannot decide whether to get a maid or to put my gal into infant care? Very very headache!

As for the other,(bad experience) is located at Blk 405B, known as Smartie Cottage. My nephew, experiences alot of bad experiences. But understd that recently they had jus empolyed a new centre in-charge(abt 3 to 4mths liao), hmmmm, the centre seems to be abit change and more systematic and had improve quite alot.
