[quote=Anonymous]A nanny agency is basically a screening service. They will knock out all the candidates who can't communicate, have poor job histories, obvious fake references, refuse vaccinations, have no experience etc. You still must do your own due diligence in checking references and doing background checks but it saves you from weeding out many candidates. Beyond this, I wouldn't bank on much value from the agency. Nannies and parents get mad that the agencies don't match for good fit and push both employers and nannies into accepting candidates/jobs too quickly. Its similar to the realtor model. The realtor makes more money from quick matches not finding you your dream home for the absolute best price. Same with nanny agencies. [/quote]
