[quote=Anonymous]Hi -- Mom here.

We have had a nanny with us for about a year and during the course of this person's time with us, it has become evident on multiple occasions that she is a safety hazard and lacks common sense despite having raised her own children and having taken care of other families' children for over ten years.  We are looking to replace this person as soon as possible.  The question I have for forum members is how would you go about making other potential employers aware of the safety concerns this person presents?  We hired this nanny through an agency and will make the agency aware of the safety issues (which I assume means that they will not send her out to their clients again), and we're not likely to provide any references for this person.  I don't really feel comfortable "outing" the nanny on-line by name (plus, that presents all sorts of privacy and legal issues potentially) but I'm confident that she's going to be posting on various sites for local jobs.  My intent is not to prevent this person from obtaining work, but I do have concerns about this person taking care of young children -- even if they are not my own.  Thoughts?  Thanks.[/quote]
