Hi Dashenka,there are many maid agencies n they all work on hourly basis.i have a personal experience with the green maids, they were really good. U could even request a particular maid if u like someone's job.they hv hourly,weekly n monthly packages. I don't think any maid comes with her own tools,u could ask th agency u contact.....good luck

Hi ViviA31,I agree with HorizonMum2. If ur not an Indian then don't go for an Indian school...the options suggested are quite good...as those are budget schools n not bad at all....good luck....

Hey Bucksgirl22,....it's great that ur moving to Dubai....jumeirah islands has huge villas n is a quiet community...it's quite green too...n necessary amenities are also not very far...the town centre is quite close,which has coffee shops,restaurant,pharmacy,supermarket,salons n even a spa....t also has a great fitness centre..n th communities more close to th town centre are the springs,the meadows n the lakes...all are great n have all the amenities ....I'm living in the springs....The green community s also nice n has bungalows,villas n town houses...with all the necessary amenities...it's a bit far from th springs n ji...It actually depends on ur place of work....if ur place of work s around sheikh zayed road,then ji n all are a good idea...but green community vil b far....Hope it helps ...take care

Hi Zuhairah, I agree with Gorobattie,that u have to mean business with them. As they are professionals who have been assigned the job by their companies.if they have any complaints they can tell their employers n not u. If they have a problem with the work then I think u should talk to the company n ask them to send someone else....hope u find a solution soon...take care..

Hi HinaDanish, I agree with silvstet, for me too ,only Dess vil b th choice from that list. But there are many other good schools around.....I've heared good things about schools like-Dubai international school(DIA),Emirates international jumeirah,Dubai college,Jumeirah eng. speaking school(JESS),Dubai American academy(DAA) etc....It also depends on the type of curriculum u want ur child to study in,e.g.-IB,British or American.....good luck

Hi seasand, no, I didn't have to pay her as school counselor,as that's really her job. It's that she separately does that guidance etc n for that I paid. Thanks...

Dear mjvdp9,I said in my first reply that she should contact a good dr. N later I said that contacting a good psychologist is also important...I know very well that it's a tense situation for a mom,as I'm a mom to a 21 year old girl n a 13 year old boy.....I just dint say "all vil b ok", that was just to reassure a worried mom....take care.....

Hey forever21, everyone's right,trying to lose weight due to peer pressure could b the reason. I feel that both reasons, psychological n otherwise,should b checked to arrive at the right conclusion...I too have a young daughter n completely understand ur concern.....I'm sure everything vil b ok....

Hi forever21, I think u should first meet a good gynecologist or maybe a GP to rule out any issue. N then u could meet a good dietician to suggest a nice healthy diet plan for ur daughter so that she can gain some healthy weight....don't worry she'll b fine...take care....

Hi..this is clearly not at all enough even to live on a budget,esp when u have a child with u. And besides it's all inclusive with no insurance for the child.and also considering the fact that ur post is of the director,this salary is too low .either u should negotiate with them or consider other options, that's my advice....good luck

Hi friends !! I have a 13 year old son and he's giving us hard times. Besides being defiant (like a typical teen), he's become foul mouthed n aggressive. The most worrisome part is that he's excessively worried about his skin color and is constantly demeaning our nationality.. I'm at my wits end....any suggestions please....
