[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My agency (not in DC) shares data on how long their nanny placements last for (97% fulfill or extend the length of their contract). Is that what you're talking about? If so, some places DO collect that information and you're right, parents should be asking for it before they commit to paying any fees.[/quote] Anyone know of a Washington area agency that does this?[/quote] We are talking here about the completion of a one year agreement, not "years and years." Many agreements are only for the summer, or even less. The question is: HOW often is an agency successful in the completion of the intended duration of commitment? If you agreed to a three month summer commitment, and it fell apart after only 8 weeks, we have a clear failure (unless of course someone died, or some such verifiable tragedy happened). One would think this data would be required of agencies. How else can you compare their success/failure rates?? Hence, their reputation as ripoffs. [/quote]
