we intend to go there for few days holiday as a family and thought it will be nice to bring our helper there to visit OZ as well since she's been good helper.

sorry didn't mean to post my experience with a company as a form of advertisement.

i knw the first step is to get the visa application approved at the embassy. So are you saying that my helper would be interviewed in the embassy before getting the visa approved? If she's going to reply that she's going to join us for a holiday with us in Australia is this suffice enough for the im...

The company i engage charges $40 for my Super Single Mattress and $55 for my King Size. I like this company because they are professional and friendly. Most importantly the service is totally dry and chemical FREE! I freak out when I heard there are those that use chemical or steam to clean the matt...

I think in Asia, men are generally more chauvinist than those in European countries - probably because of a more "Easternised" culture, AKA conservative? I've lived in Indonesia for some years and I know that Indonesian women are surrendered to the mercy of their husband. Majority of them have no sa...

Hi, Recently i had posted discussion bout my child's allergy who shocked all of us cos she's never had allergy before back home. Anyway, her condition has stabilised after medication AND some allergy management exercise. She had this skin prick test and found she's allergic to dust and dust mites. S...

Most baby shoes are sold according to their age. So if your baby is between 12-18 months you can ask the sales staff for the shoe size. Alternatively, you may use a string / ruler to measure your kid's feet size. My baby's shoes are bought this way. =) When she was learning to walk, I got her this t...

Hi,

Any advice whether it will be difficult for me to bring along my Filipino domestic helper to Australia for holiday with us? Will I get any difficulty at embassy to apply for her visa?

Recently I had been hooked on to Badminton game after a few sessions with my colleagues at Sengkang Sports Hall.

Anyone has other good badminton hall to recommend?

How much freedom you give your maid depends on the maid's attributes. I'll be more at peace knowing who her friends are and what she does on her own and where is she at all time. My mother's maid is a married woman in her late 30s, she is given many freedoms given that she is mature enough handle h...

According to her PD it's safe, and my neighbour's kid is also having the same inhaler. SHould be safe.

Now my girl is using this inhaler treatment to control the cough and respiratory to prevent it from getting worse. I've now almost stopped all sweet and cold food/drink. I'm told to not give her citrus drink as well cos this trigger coughs. controlling her fruits intake, not too much of those. I'm n...

I work full time.. i have tried to come back early to spend more time with her esp weekends... i am thankful that i manage to get a good maid who love children. So far she's been good to mine... It is my dream to spend more time at home with them. And I totally agree that during this time it's so im...

Thanks for that information. I'll have my husband (who's already out in Singapore) look into both those links. Do I have to have my general practitioner refer me to an OBGYN or is it self referral? I guess the first step either way would be to register with a general practitioner. Thanks again for ...
