| Asian nanny Cristina Pasuquin's profile |
Ms Cristina Pasuquin is 29 yrs. of age and single. After her
secondary education she went to college and completed two years
out of a 4-year course in Business, but had to give up because of
financil difficulties on the part of her father who is a farmer
in the province of Nueva Ecija, about 4 hours from the capital
Manila. Cristina has a total of some 6 years experience as a
domestic worker - 4-1/2 years in the United Arab Emirates and now
1-1/2 with her current employer in Singapore.
In the U.A.E. the four children she care for were 7, 6, 5 and 2 when she left to go home for good. In Singapore she is taking care of two children now 5 and 6. In U.A.E. the youngest child was born after she had worked there for two years and the youngest but one was 4 months old. In both U.A.E. and Singapore, besides care of the children, her other duties include(d) cooking, general cleaning, laundry and ironing. In Singapore her employer is a working mother and so Cristina stands in for the mother during the day time. Although childcare is Cristina's forte, she is also a good cook. She can cook Arabic and Chinese food but also some western food. Her nominal employer's husband likes western food and Cristina is able to prepare some of his favourites: beef stew, chicken pie, mashed potato, salad Cristina speaks and understands English well. She is pleasant and polite, neat and tidy in dress and appearance. She would like to work in North America when her contract expires in April 2000. Her employer has agreed to release her a month earlier in March 2000 if necessary. In response to our request to Cristina's employer for an assessment, the latter, Mrs Rodriguez gives her a perfect score for 10 character traits including: diligence, initiative, honesty, reliability and fondness for children.
