[quote=Anonymous]I'm a nanny and completely disagree with the PP. I live a 40min drive to work with no traffic - sometimes twice that when it's bad - and I have been late once in 2.5 years. I come from a rural upbringing where driving an hour or more for some activities (school...) was normal. If the nanny has experience with this commute, OP, and her references report she's on time that should be weighted heavily in her favor. If she has not had this, or a similar, commute in the past, though, I probably wouldn't offer it to her; much easier to continue your search now than have to fire and hire someone new later. Talk to the agency about these concerns, too - that's part of their job! Maybe they will tell you that candidates in your price range tend to live in NoVa and you may have to wait for someone more local, or maybe they'll have some nearby candidates ready for interviews when you call.[/quote]
