What services do you recommend? I didn't use a placement agency so have to do this on my own.

Thanks so much!

I am not sure what area you live in.

In CA where I live, for example there is a process called "Trustline" where you can pay to have your nanny screened as well as fingerprinted.

Whatever you end up doing, let me give you some money-saving advice: DO NOT obtain a background check online.

I personally did & it initially raised some concerns about my nanny's past. Like a few parking tickets + arrests from a place she has never even been in!!

I ran my own personal information and the results bordered on humorous. Apparently I had married someone before I was even born.

Make sure you stay away from these scams OP. Good luck.

Quite agree! Nanny here, and I'm currently fighting with a background company that said that I lived in three places at once, working in two fields for which I'm not qualified. While they were willing to take off the information about where I supposedly lived, because I could prove I was living somewhere else, they won't remove the tickets. It doesn't make sense, but whatever.

Ditto here. These online background checks/security clearances are phony baloney. And I tried getting my money back too. Money that I know now I will never see again.

Buyer Beware.
