[quote=Anonymous]I've done it many times and had generally good luck. Act like a man on a dating app -- make the first move, message the ones you like first rather than posting a job and waiting for responses. I did phone interviews/FaceTime before sealing the deal. The sitters I've hired from Care.com are adults with white-collar day jobs who need a little extra cash. All are experienced with children (former nanny or teacher). There are college students on there but I haven't personally gone that route. Pay range is $15-20 for mine but it varies, and I only have one kid. When I hired a long-term nanny on there I did end up with a Trumper/antivaxxer who was very good at the actual skills of her job, but in the era of vaccines being available, she would not be a good fit. Just be sure to confirm vaccination status before hiring if that is important to you.[/quote]
