Hi there - I am looking for the following in Ixtapa or Zihua. Thanks in advance for the help!

-Jobs board (maybe here? for hiring a bilingual personal assistant)
-Swimming instructor
-Nanny
-Immigration lawyer

There is absolutely no need for an immigration lawyer unless you just want to throw away your money.

Swimming instructors can be found at the Alberca Olímpica at the Unidad Deportiva.

Stefanie, who has already responded to you, is a wonderful person. She is more than qualified as a nanny.

Beware of helpful advice via e-mail from people who won't post their reply to you here publicly.

There is no shortage of people who will offer their services as your bilingual assistant, though to avoid any regrets, disappointments or misunderstandings, I strongly urge you to learn Spanish and not to rely on people translating for you. Besides here, Facebook offers numerous chat rooms where you can solicit help. I recommend my own chat room: Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa Platiquemos - Let's Rap.

Bienvenidos, suerte y saludos.

Que lesvas vive bien

Learn Spanish!

Rob is correct that you really don't need an immigration lawyer when you are applying for the Temporary or Permanent Visa. The instructions are fairly straightforward. However, I found it comforting to hire someone. She confirmed that what I was doing was correct and helped me with the process. She even accompanied me to pick up the card in Mexico. (The first step is done at a Mexican embassy in your native country.) To top it off, the fee was more than reasonable. She charged me only MXN$1,000 pesos in the summer of 2021. I thought it was well worth it.

I am also skilled in formal interpretation/written translations and am quite knowledgeable about the area. Potentially interested in the personal assistant role, would like to discuss further.

Feel free to send me an email directly, stefahuerta@gmail.com

Gracias,
Stefanie
