[quote=Anonymous]As a spinoff from the au pair thread....

Nanny agencies always ask every parent and every nanny how long they want their next nanny/job for. The agencies usually suggest a maximum of one year and then re-evaluate. Of course it may be much less. The comparison of this expected timeline is an essential component of the matching process.

What is the agency rate of success in achieving the parent's and nanny's stated goal?

Agencies that have highest rates of failure are obviously the least successful. But a smooth talking agency owner or worker can easily sell you anything with her sharp PR skills. So far, agencies have not been forthcoming with any statistics whatsoever. They will claim that they have no idea. Why not? How else can they evaluate themselves if they refuse to track the results of their matching strategies.

Why don't parents demand some hard data? Certainly they should have fair access to vital details to minimize the constant waste of many thousands of dollars over and over again, not to mention the damage done to children by having frequently changing nannies.

The revolving nanny door needs to stop.

Your child deserves better.
