What do you all think about a nanny that we pre-screen with the question "Would you be able to stay with a baby 24/7 for 7-10 days twice per year?". It appears to be the least stressful situation for the baby. since it's the same person.[/quote]

I don't know where you live, but in most places you would have to pay time and half or something similar after 8+ hours/day, so 7-10 days 24/7 would be really really expensive. If you can afford it, fine. But either way that a long time away from both parents for a kid under 6 months. Is this just for a vacation or do you have some life circumstance that you need to travel like this for (like to see family abroad)? Honestly, if it's just for vacay, you need to redefine your expectations of what life as parents will look like. It may sound judgmental but I've never heard anyone expect to be away from their infant for that long.[/quote]
