Meet the girl who turned down Bono
Nanny to the stars just wanted to come home for her family
THERE aren't many women who would turn down one of the world's most famous rock stars, U2 lead singer Bono.
Yet Mooloolaba's Chelsea Sipthorpcorrect has done exactly that.
When the opportunity arose last month to look after the Irish crooner's children, Chelsea turned it down.
After four years teaching and nannying in Great Britain and Europe, she wanted to return to the Sunshine Coast to catch up with family and celebrate her brother's 21st birthday.
But she has no regrets _ over the last two years the trained teacher has nannied for Britain's wealthy elite, among them U2 guitarist The Edge. She also interviewed with Liam Gallagher of Oasis fame.
Anything else she may have done is a mystery, because unlike fellow Australian Paul Burrell, whose loose lips and revelations about the Royal Family shocked UK last week, Chelsea is staying mum.
When confronted with the rumour she looked after Mick Jagger's children, Chelsea responded with laughter.
"That's a complete fabrication,'' she said, but with a twinkle in her eyes that leaves you wondering.
"I think when you work for them (the famous or wealthy), its important to keep quiet about their home life,'' she said.
"Of course you overhear things but they are normal families too so that's how you treat it.''
So how does a teacher from Mooloolaba break into the celebrity and business elite nannying circle?
Chelsea started nannying in her spare time while teaching in London, and just "fell into it'' from there.
She simply met a family who needed a nanny through friends and ended up in Monaco.
"I thought I was working for rich people in London until I went to Monaco,'' Chelsea laughed. "It's just amazing to see the way they live ... the plush houses, gorgeous boats, their lifestyle.''
So began a couple of years in the south of France, holidays on the Greek Islands, skiing in the French Alps and memberships to upmarket health clubs.
One of the many highlights was The Edge's wedding, where Chelsea worked with three other nannies and looked after 40 children.
The U2 rocker hired a medieval village in the south of France, and did not spare any expense.
"It was really lavish in a gorgeous location ... people were handed ice creams when they got there, and there was a huge bubble machine,'' she said.
