[quote=Anonymous]I would say one to two months before you need someone. This isn't a market where nannies stay unemployed for long, or the kind of job where they can (or need to) give more than a few weeks notice. Also, you want to be hiring active, engaged nannies - not ones who have been out of work for an extended period of time. With a September start you will have a terrific pool of candidates over the summer - lots of families will have kids starting school so will no longer need their long-term nannies. I think that's a perfect time to look and you'll have great options. If it were me I'd start putting the word out on my neighborhood listserv at the beginning of the summer, and then doing a more significant search in July. Good luck and congrats on your expanding family! [/quote]
