[quote=Anonymous]How old are your kid/s? I would not really call this a nanny position at all. Find a "live-in housekeeper" with additional responsibilities to care for your daughter. How old is she? It might be more of a specialized nursing care situation depending on the age. If you have the word "nanny" in your ad, you won't attract the right kind of person. A nanny wants primarily child care duties, no heavy scrubbing. If you have a young child and truly want a nanny, you will indeed have to pay a lot to 1. attract the right person, 2 make it worth it for the candidate. Au pair is definitely not the way to go. They want to play with kids and have fun, not scrub toilets and have patience for specialized care. They certainly don't have the life experience to appreciate that kind of job. They are just kids. Lots of host moms think of it as having an older kid in the house--you have to make dinner for them, etc. [/quote]
