[quote=Anonymous]OP it really depends on your personality and what you are looking for in a nanny. A 21 or 22 year old nanny is never going to admit that they aren't experienced because they don't have enough experience to know what they don't know! You may have more issues with cell phones, too much socializing, driving the kids all over for her entertainment and some judgement problems but these can be prevented with laying out the rules and expectations for working hours. If you hire a 21 year old, you should not give her free reign to do whatever. (Yes, now all the little 20 year olds will pile on whining about their entitlements to entertain themselves). You will need to manage her more but on the upside this can work out better anyway. Older nannies are not perfect. Some may be bitter or feel entitled to sit around all day. Work ethic seems to be a real problem with nannies of multiple ages. [/quote]
