Two New Nineras (Nurses Aide or Nanny)

  Part of our expansion to support all 30 of the small and vulnerable children is to employee nannies to work with them during their waking hours. We currently have 6 nannies covering four groups: Bears, Tigers, Lions and Bulls.  The Government and another NGO   Vida i Pau provide another nanny each. Thus we have six groups of five(ish).  We are calling this Home inside the Center (Hogar adentro del Hogar). It is a very exciting time. Many moments of progress followed by challenges and delays. We continue to move ahead: poco a poco.

                                     

                                                                                  

This is Marisol Celada. She is 26 with two children;: 8 year old girl and five year old boy. Her husband was murdered when they were both 20 years of age and she was pregnant with their second child.  She lives near here parents and her Mom helps with her kids when she is at work. She is a Christian.
  She loves her work and all the kids. Her favorite child is Manuel de Jesus. Not surprising as he is a favorite amongst many of us.  Her greatest joy is meassging the kids legs with creme and stimulant brushes.



  

 This is Marie Eugenia Morales. She is in her 40´s and has three boys; 24, 19 and 15. Her separated husband provides almost no support to his family.  Though she graduated  from High School with a certificate in Secretarial Skills, she has mostly worked selling products and clothing at the various street fairs and markets. That type of small business here has become significantly less viable 
with changes in retail patterns.  
   She loves the work and the kids. She even said she likes the environment. Though she denies playing favorites she admits a special place in her heart for Wendy and Karla.  She too enjoys messaging them and singing to them as they listen to music. 

   They are both great additions to the Team.
