[quote=Anonymous]From my experience, just because someone has a stated interest or occupation working with kids doesn't make them good. We just transitioned out of an au pair situation with a pediatric nurse who had very little skill with small children. I'm not sure what age she would have been good with, but it was not toddlers. Clearly pediatric nurse is different than teaching (but my grandmother who was a first grade teacher for 25 years also is not great with kids...). I've grappled with the same question, and will continue in the future looking for ones where recommendations talk about how much the kids they have cared for love the person. [/quote]
