[quote=Anonymous]As an MB I like 9:17's answer. I would not want to feel an agency was pushing me towards a more expensive solution (in fact I wouldn't want the agency involved in negotiating rates at all once they'd identified candidates for me). Also, I would not hire 14:09 given the attitude. I have used agencies for emergency/short term care and had great success. Primarily I've used MetroParentRelief and I recommend them regularly (they're in NoVa but I'm in MD.) I found our long-term nanny, and our best candidates, through word of mouth and my neighborhood listserv. The family to family referrals are invaluable in my opinion. When you have a family whose nanny has been with them for years, but their kids age out of needing a nanny, and they want to help him/her find their next job - that's where the real gems are IMO. Good luck.[/quote]
