Where can I get a list of reliable childcare providers/nannies?
Nannies are available and are generally referred by expatriates who are leaving. They are very reliable and can also serve as housekeepers. The domestic workers tend to be full-time and, therefore, casual nannies are hard to find.

Domestic employment contracts are essential. The wages are very affordable.
