Nelly is pleasant and neat in appearance, alert and outgoing. She graduated from a 2-year midwifery course in 1991. In her first year in college she also worked as a factory worker.

As a midwifery student Nelly was attached to a hospital for two out of the 4 semesters. In the hospital she experienced helping a mother deliver a baby, bathe a baby and perform many duties that are sometimes performed by a nurse - such as taking temperature, giving medication, giving injections.

At present Nelly is working for one Doreen Low. She has been with the family since October 1994. The child (boy) in her care was in kindergarten when Nelly first came to work for the family. Initially she escorted the child to and from kindergarten. She also organised activities for him - colouring, drawing, etc.

Other duties she performs include cooking, cleaning, laundry and ironing. In addition, she also does the grocery shopping and takes care of potted plants.

Nelly is helpful and is fond of children. She occasionally babysits for her neighbour. (See neighbour's comment)

Nelly is available any time, which in practical terms means she is available to start work 4 months from the time an Employer in Canada obtains approval from Canada Employment Center to hire from Singapore.
