[quote=Anonymous]I had a similar benefit at my old company. If it works the same way Care.com contracts with a local nanny agency. You submit a request and they assign a nanny that meets your schedule. You just get a name and their contact information. These are nannies that have been vetted by the local agency, not Care.com. You call them to confirm details. Overall I found it very reliable. My nanny got into a car accident I was able to put in a request less than 24 hours when I needed someone. The nannies that came ranged from ok to amazing. Noone was terrible. Most of the time I (or my husband) would WFH until we felt comfortable with the nanny. I remember one nanny was a former daycare director and she would come with a tote of crafts and activities. My daughter loved her. If you like someone you can request them again in the future (that was more hit or miss because back-up nannies often find full-time roles). [/quote]
