The Extraordinary Duda
Looking for a Nanny


Finding a babysitter for a child is not easy. There are many things that parents must consider so that children and caregivers can establish a good relationship.


At Aunt Marry's suggestion, Arion eventually contacted several service providers. From semi-nurse babysitters to certified nannies, Arion strives to find the best for her little daughter.


Today, there are several nannies who come to the house to do an interview as well as an introduction with Aara.


"Arion, what are those people doing here?" ask Dayana who came to Arion to her room. The fifty-five-year-old middle-aged woman frowned in surprise. He arrived at his son's house at eight in the morning, but there were already five women sitting lined up in the front yard of the house.


"They're Aara's nanny candidates, Ma. I told them to come for an interview and an introduction to Aara" replied Arion.


"Malay, Arion. I've got Aunt Marry, why hire a nanny?"


"Ma, Aunt Marry is old. Poor him."


"But, Arion. There were three servants in this house. Why can't they help Aara? Don't waste money!"


"Alright, Ma. I work for money anyway. It's for Aara's sake!" firmly Arion.


Dayana grunts annoyed, she really does not like if Arion spends a lot of money for purposes that are not important in her opinion. Dayana is the type of mother who always manages and is very frugal, she tries hard to manage her son's finances with various reasons.


"Lusa, your sister's birthday. Mama wants you to rent a big building. Caroline's party events should be grand and luxurious. Poor thing, your sister will be humiliated by her friends if she cannot make a festive party" Dayana said.


"Wasting money for the party wasn't my style, Ma. Why don't you just treat Caroline's friend?"


"Arion! It's for your sister!"


"Whatever Mama!" Arion was upset. He left Dayana standing with pursed lips in her room.


Arion goes into Aara's room, takes her little girl out and gets acquainted with the prospective nannies who are waiting.


Now, there are seven women who have been sitting lined up in the front yard of Arion's house. They were twenty-five to thirty-five years old. Arion deliberately chose caregivers with these age criteria so that they still have extra energy in keeping children in their active times.


After passing the interview stage from Arion, the three selected candidates can get acquainted with Aara one by one. Aara was the one who determined who the prospective nanny would be working in this house.


With the fantastic salary that Arion offers, of course they try hard to seduce Aara and give the best impression for the little girl to be interested. But alas, Aara had absolutely no interest in anyone. The little girl refused to be touched by anyone.


Arion is confused and tired, he does not understand what Aara's true will is.


"How's Aara? Doesn't Aara want to choose?" arion asked once more before he rejected all the would-be nannies who had come.


"don't want. Aara wants Miss Amber" replied Aara.


"Honey, Miss Amber is a ballet teacher. She might want to be a nanny" explained Arion.


"Daddy asked?"


"Who is Miss Amber, Arion?" dayana from the back. From the beginning he oversaw the interview process, and he was quite happy that none of them were compatible with Aara.


"He's Aara's ballet teacher, Ma. It's nobody" replied Arion. He let out a heavy sigh, then went out for a moment to make an announcement to all the would-be nannies if none of them were accepted to work in this house.


"Already, Arion. Aara doesn't need a babysitter, does she, honey?" Dayana throws a question at her granddaughter.


"But I need, Ma. At the very least, there should be someone I can trust to take care of Aara while I'm busy at work!"


"Arion, that Aara needs a mother, not a nanny. You better start today you don't have to bother looking for a nanny, it's better if you find a future wife. Or, you and Claire can refer to it, "just as Dayana lightly. Arion sighed harshly, one of the things he hated about his mother was her attitude of being organized and reluctant to accept opinions.


Arion massaged his forehead. The burden of work and affairs of the child made his head almost broken. Moreover, his mother always interfered in his every problem.
