[quote=Anonymous]I am currently a nanny who works in Abu Dhabi (last year I was in Dubai). It is very common here for Indian, Sri Lankan and phillipinos to come here and leave their families for two years to be a housemaid or nanny. They do this because they can make 4 times the salary here than they can in their home country. Our last housekeeper had a son doing his last year of school and her wages were paying for this. I'm not saying that it is right but that is how it is.

To the OP if you do decide to take your nanny with you please sit down and be very clear about the conditions upon which you are taking her with you. How long for? Will you be flying her back at the end of her contract? I would ask if she has thought it through - she won't see her children for a long time all those milestones missed! If she does decide to come please encourage her to find a group of friends because moving to a new country and working in a house (so no workmates/coworkers) can be lonely!
