[quote=Anonymous]As a parent of a child with a speech delay, a caregiver speaking fluent and accurate English is VASTLY under-appreciated. Yes, of course it makes a huge difference in your child's language development, at least in the early years. Your instincts are not wrong, at all. However, price limitations prevent many families from hiring fluent/native English speakers as nannies. And by the way, it is MUCH better for language development for a child to hear a different language from his or her nanny - but have that language spoken correctly and fluently - than it is to hear English with a heavy accent and with errors.
