Hi All,
I am in dire need of finding a domestic helper for 4 month old baby with Downs Syndrome. The helper will not be the main carer or teacher of the baby, but at times will have to step in and must understand that Downs Syndrome Children need special technics to improve their development. Must have excellent, clear spoken English and not one that is just a mumble with a Filipino accent. Its not just about making a baby smile, its about teaching them the correct vocab.
Currently employ a DH who we thought had good English. Well that is a disaster, she might be able to write and read English, but her pronounciation is shocking. She also mentioned on her CV that she had knowledge of handling newborns/babies/toddlers, but when my child recently developed a cold, she panicked and was found to be totally out of her depth. I have had to question the authenticity of her CV.
If anyone knows of any trustworthy DH's or agencies that would be able in assisting to help re-employ another DH with special needs experience, then please email me on.:

Thanks
DB
