Lorena Buñuel bested 199 other nominees to be adjudged the UAE's Best Nanny in a first-of-its-kind
00:11
competition for domestic workers.
00:13
The 29-year-old Filipina nanny received Php 5,000 cash prize during the prize-giving ceremony
00:20
last Saturday.
00:21
I'm very grateful and thankful to my employer and to the RISE who appreciates us as a nanny,
00:32
who appreciates our hard work.
00:33
Organized by RISE, a Dubai start-up that seeks to help domestic workers, the competition
00:38
selected the top 10 candidates from among 200 nominees.
00:42
They were interviewed, along with their employers, by a three-member judging panel.
00:47
The judges were two veteran British nannies and a UAE-based dietitian.
00:51
The contenders were nominated by their sponsor families, and over the past month, some 108,000
00:57
people had voted for the nannies on the organizers' Facebook page.
01:01
Nannies were judged for their ability to provide a caring, safe environment, teach children
01:05
healthy eating, and how they supported their learning.
01:08
The two runners-up, also Filipinas, received cash prizes of Php 2,500 and Php 1,250,000
01:15
respectively.

Thank you so much.
