Fennell has dismissed arguments that the return of the death penalty would dissuade would-be-killers. He The profession of Nanny modernized by this local lady entrepreneur The occupation of Nanny has changed drasticlly over the years and is no longer exclusively associated with the wealthy and elite. And it is through such ladies as Moyra Pudleiner and her business, Cardinal-Westhy Nannies -Inc¢., that many of these myths have been exposed. Moyra started her business last December from her home at 525 Col- umbus Road East, and since that time, has built her clientelle up to over 100 registered customers. Although she prefers to cover the Region of Durham, she has on occa- ~ion assisted people in Toronto. So how do you go about securing the services of a nanny? According to Moyra, people call her on the telephone. "Most of my customers have call- ed me because they have heard about the service from someone else," said Moyra, 'I haven't even started to advertise yet." Moyra always goes to a prospec- tive client's home to interview them and find out first hand just exactly what their requirements are. She then arranges for them to meet with at least two nannies and make aeir decision from there. Moyra says she accommodates clients for any period of time...live- in nannies; someone to care for the children while a couple are working, or for a short period such as a weekend or vacation. "Once clients are registered with the service, they can call anytime," said Moyra, 'Only about one quarter of my customers require live-in help." Capi tal punishment debate feels that the return of the death penalty will send out a clear message that Ottawa is getting tough on criminals. "If we get tough with the most severe criminals, it may have a positive effect right on down the system," said Fennell, "It'll teach them they can't get away with it."

SWITZER MOTORS LTD. 285-3403 She said that as most agencies im- port nannies from Europe, they must live in as they have no other place to go. "I select all my nannies from the Durham hegion," explained Moyra. "That way they are totally flexible. Most clients prefer to have privacy during the evenings and on weekends." Moyra's nannies range in age from 19 to 64 and all have one thing in common. They are mature, responsible women who like to go out of their way to look after children. "My nannies choose to look after children," Moyra said. "They don't necessarily have to have an Early Childhood Education or Nanny degree but many of them do. The main thing is they like children and like taking care of them." Cardinal-Westby Nannies has tripled in size since it started a few short months ago. Nannies, hearing of the service from others, have been calling for positions, but Moyra says that she still has more clients than nannies to fill the positions. This is the first business venture for Moyra, although she has a ten- year background in marketing and research. Moyra is married with two sons and has lived in rural Brooklin for the past five years. "I've had a variety of life ex- periences dealing with children," said Moyra, "but it has always been on a volunteer basis. I really enjoy what I am doing now and will con- tinue indefinitely." But once a client/nanny relation- ship has been formed, it is not the end of the line for Moyra. Every two weeks, once a month at the utmost, she goes out and supervises her nan- nies in the home, to make sure things are going smoothly. "We definitely have a personal touch at Cardinal-Westby," says Moyra, "It's something you just couldn't do any other way." Moyra does not run a quick baby- sitting service. Her business is for those who want child care in their home, and although the care cost is comparable to any day care service, Moyra ensures that her clients get so much more.
