[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be prepared to lose several Nannys. It's just how it goes. They will seem great in interviews and turn out to be a bad fit, they will move, have babies etc. It is very, very rare to have one nanny for 10+ years. [/quote]

No, it does happen fairly frequently (at least in my circle) that you have the same nanny for your children’s complete childhood.  We’ve had our nanny for over eight years; my boss has had her nanny for seven years, my bff is going on seven years…. Our nanny also sees the same nannies in the park and classes with the same families for years.  I could go on and on with examples.  We all pay well, have annual raises, and truly love our nannies and consider them family.

I don’t think it’s rare at all.  [/quote]

The ones who pay their nannies well, compensate with the addition of other kids, don't try to overwork them, and have other help when needed keep their nannies. The cheap ones are the ones who have high turnover.[/quote]
