The word YAYA is a "baby talk" for NANA which is a shortcut of "Nanny" originally used in the Europe and then in the America. The reasons seem obvious what their for. We have become a nation of working mothers. Others have limited or no family support at all. Others consider alternative care like day, home, or individual care.
Many Filipino families because of our close family ties have taken advantage of family members to look after their infants or children. Some hire a "kasama" in the home and if your a match, she becomes a part of the family. This kind of care can either be well worth it (HEAVEN) or for others, (HELL) of a time. Please enter your feedback which of the two exist now in your life.
My Dearest Nanny, which was founded in 1999 and have served many families in educating their nannies. In its interactive unifying program, the lessened gap among the parent, infant, and nanny in understanding their world have created positive environments for great childcare and minimal turnovers.

And for the PROFESSIONAL...
Our Approach is based on RIE. The unique philosophy and methodology in working with infants was developed in the United States by educator and infant specialist Magda Gerber, built on the work of Hungarian pediatrician, Emmi Pikler, M.D. This approach was first demonstrated between 1972 and 1977 in the United States at the Demonstration Infant Program in Palo Alto, California through the Children’s Health Council by Magda Gerber and pediatric neurologist Tom Forrest, M.D. In order to continue educating parents and professionals in their approach, they founded Resources for Infant and Educarers (RIE) as non-profit corporation with Magda as the Founding Director.

We provide assistance in design and set-up of child care centers; curriculum development for day care or pre-school programs for ages below 3 years old; in-service staff training for teachers, teacher-aids; consulting services, manual of the RIE Philosophy and its applications.
