[quote=NisforNanny]I did this.  I used my network of nanny friends and former nanny employers, so I was a known quantity with known references.  Even though those references were a couple of years old, my current employer knew two of them very well, so they had more credibility for her than a stranger who was currently employing me would have offered.  (I also already knew my current employer peripherally, from when I worked for past employers.)

My current employers did not ask if my then-employers knew that I was planning to resign, but I alluded to the fact that they did not and they figured it out right away.  During our first conversation, I briefly explained why I wanted to make a change in employment and how much notice I would ideally like to offer my then-employers, as well as how much notice I was required to give them.  When I mentioned "giving notice" it served to inform the interviewing parents that notice had not yet been given.

OP, I've been in my current job for a year now and it is wonderful.  Good luck!  Definitely network.  [/quote]
