This course consists of four parts and will teach you some basic words and expressions you need when you talk with your ayi.

The four parts are: Communicate with Ayi-agency, Cleaning and laundry, Cooking and Kids. The courses will teach you some useful and basic vocabulary in order to employ an ayi via an agency, how to tell the ayi which detergents and tools to use for cleaning in the different rooms, how to give instructions on how to prepare your favorite dishes, allergies etc. and to tell your ayi about what you expect from them in terms of child care.
