[quote=Anonymous]Hi there--- this may be a weird question but it's a real concern for my family and I currently. We are looking for our second nanny after moving and losing our first beloved one. And we've interviewed two candidates. One, who we prefer, had a large cold sore on her lip at the time of the interview. Now I have no judgment against this-I realize most people carry this virus (I might even myself!) but me nor my husband have ever had any type of flare up and neither have our kids. I would ideally like to keep it that way, and I know there's no way to know for sure that other nannies do or don't have it. But I'm just wary about this. If I were to hire this particular nanny would it be wrong to ask that she don't share food or kiss the girls on the lips? My babies love to give kisses and our prior nanny had the type of relationship with them that they would give goodbye kisses every day before she left. I want this same type of relationship with a new nanny. And before I get blasted for being crazy---because I know this board and I know I will---just remember these are my kids and I have every right to want to protect them in the best way I can. [/quote]
