[quote=Anonymous]OP here what made her more attractive to us vs the other people we interviewed with was: She is older and already raised her own kids. So, she has years of experience. Plus she has a long list of references. All of her references bent over backwards saying "she was the best nanny we have ever had." She was extremely playful with my daughter during the interview. She was only at our house for an hour or so and my daughter wanted to go home with her. (We have interviewed 12 ppl and my daughter didn't react like that to anyone.) She was dressed very presentable and polished at the interview. Each family she has worked for has kept her for 3+ years. And we want someone that will stay around. I don't want to keep changing nannies. As for $18 and hour being on the high end. We interviewed 12ppl and only one person asked for less than $20. She actually wanted $17. Every single candidate "charged 20+ for two kids) we are in Arlington. So, maybe the rates are lower in other places. I am not sure. We did pay our last nanny 17.5 in a share for two kids. So, she was about on target for the $18. [/quote]
