[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How to find a good nanny? Any tips? I am due in May and looking for someone to start end of September. Super worried because of Covid and[b] hoping to find someone who can just work with me.[/b] Really have no idea where to turn ! Any tips would be helpful. Thank you[/quote] If you don't want them to have a weekend/after hours gig with another family, you really need to make sure you paying more than enough for them to live on and make it worth it. I see so many ads of parents only wanting 25 hours/week of care @$15-20/hr and expecting to the the nanny's only job, and for the nanny to live alone and not take public transportation. No nanny is going to dig into their savings to accommodate that. So maybe figure out how much a nanny would need to earn to afford housing, car payment, food, entertainment, savings, etc. and make sure you are paying above and beyond that amount.[/quote]
