Testimonials
Dear Super Domestics
I love my job and I am so happy. I love
Emily, Amy and Edward like they are my
own children and can't wait to watch them
grow up as they get big. I liked the courses
that I went on especially the Home Management - I learnt lots of new things
and my employer noticed when the clothes
were properly packed away in the
cupboards for example. I also like helping
my employer have parties at home - I set
the table properly, I help serve the food and
I help clear the table. I hope that I can go
on the cooking course soon...
I am very happy.

Dear Super Domestics
During the course of the past 13 years, two
of my domestic helpers have attended
numerous cooking and baking courses at
Super Domestics with Sandy Green. They
both became highly proficient in the kitchen
and were able to cook and bake for my
family on a completely independent basis
after attending Sandy’s courses. The
courses are extremely well structured with a
great variety of recipes which are very easy
to follow, nutritious and most importantly,
tasty and delicious. Sandy herself is an ex-
teacher with many years of experience in
the teaching field. I have personally
observed a number of Sandy’s classes and
have found that she has an excellent
rapport with her students, she is positive,
patient and has a genuine desire to pass on
her extensive knowledge. One is able to
choose from a wide variety of courses at
Super Domestics which include training in
Home Management, Conversational English,
Mending and of course, Cooking and
Baking. Sandy is personally involved with
the teaching of each course, which is of
great benefit to her students. I would
highly recommend that you consider
sending your domestic helper and/or
houseman to one or more of Sandy’s
courses – you will be more than delighted
with the result! Gail Hochreiter
