A heartwarming video featuring Rosie, a beloved Kenyan nanny known affectionately as Rozah Rozalina Samson, bidding farewell to the children she cared for over the weekend has taken the internet by storm, turning her into an online sensation.
Having worked as a nanny in Lebanon, Rosie returned to her home country, Kenya, for a holiday, leaving behind four young children who had developed a close bond with her. The emotional moment of the kids tearfully saying goodbye to their cherished caregiver at the airport was shared on TikTok by Rosie’s employers, sparking widespread discussions about the strong connection between Rosie and the children.
Maria Cataleya, Rosie’s Lebanese employer, posted a desperate plea on TikTok, expressing the difficulty of finding a replacement for Rosie. In the heartfelt video, she implored Rosie to return, stating, “I need like six people in place of her. Try to appreciate Rosie when you see her on the streets. Tell her to come back to us, please. Mummy misses her, the kids miss her. I can’t go out alone with my husband. I can’t travel anymore.”
The emotional appeal garnered immense support and messages from fans worldwide, praising Rosie’s dedication and the profound impact she had on the children’s lives. In response, Rosie, currently in Kenya visiting her family, reassured her Lebanese employers in another video that she would indeed be returning.
A TikTok video from the father of the viral twins featured a warm message, wishing Rosie a happy life with her children and expressing hope for her return to Lebanon, even if just for a visit. His wife added, “Rosie, come back to Lebanon soon for Mimi and Kitty❤,” to which Rosie responded with a hopeful “inshaallah.” She explained that while her own children were in good hands with her sister in Kenya, they would stay there due to schooling commitments.
In her reassurance to her Lebanese employers, Rosie affirmed, “The kids are with my sister, but they are doing well. I promise I will come back, but I will not bring the kids with me because they are in school in Kenya.” This heartening saga continues to capture the attention and admiration of viewers around the globe.
