For many years immigrants particularly women, have ventured overseas, making the ultimate sacrifice of leaving behind their loved ones, often their own kids, to care for another’s.While some have pleasant experiences and use “nannying” as a stepping stone to achieving bigger and better things for themselves and their families, for others it’s a profession.

Manmay LaKay’s Nanny Diaries will feature the stories of nannies, their trials and triumphs and their experiences as a nanny or housekeeper.

If you’re a nanny or a former nanny, we want to hear your story, your experience.
