Completely understand about wanting to be in a sunny place

I was in the LA area for about a year and hated it.  The biggest reason was I was in a 24 hour job that sucked.  However when I left my job and started looking for something else I discovered I just didn't like the LA scene.  I registered with all of the agencies there and even had more than one job offer, but it just wasn't for me.

Then I started looking in San Francisco and fell in love! I liked the agencies and families much better up here! In LA you get a lot of people in the entertainment industry, where as here in the Bay Area you tend get people who are working professionals who really value their nanny.  I found the Northern California agencies to be more ethical as well.  For example all of the agencies up north required that I be registered with Trustline (which is the law here in California).  Several of the big name agencis in LA just brushed it off when I brought it up.  I had several job offers here and just recently moved and started my new position about 2 months ago.  I'm loving it so far and am already so much happier here.

I would say it's really more about your personality.  There are the occasional good jobs in San Diego, so don't count that completely out.  You can also find the occasional good job in Orange County, which is also very nice.  [/quote]
