This post is for people who are less ethical than you.
Just as there are crappy nannies, there are also crappy parents.
Former employers can be a very valuable asset in the process of weeding out the bad apples.

The best families want their former nannies to enjoy continued professional success.

So ... You want me to know so that I am not upfront about the job I want you to do and we end up being a terrible fit?

English please...

This is a good NF.

Agree.

I offer my references only after we both decide your job would be a potential good match.
