[quote=Anonymous]0P here – thanks. In terms of the other two, I know they are not a good fit for us because one seemed very dependable but lacked the emotional maturity to be able to handle two kids. She even told me that she gets easily stressed when there is a lot going on and she has yelled at her previous family's child. The other candidate was very sweet but I don't think she would be physically capable in terms of energy levels of handling the two kids or lifting either of them when necessary. She was also late to the interview and left early so it definitely out for us!  To the previous poster who said we were inexperienced because we were even considering this candidate, I don't think that's a fair critique. Our very first nanny that we worked with for several years with told me in the interview that she was nervous about taking care of our then eight week old baby. I actually really liked her because she admitted that she was nervous going into the situation – which of course I think we were too. Knowing your limitations, and being honest about them in my book is better than someone who says they can do everything and doesn't recognize that there are aspects of the job that are going to be difficult.  She was a great nanny and my neighbors were constantly trying to woo her away. [/quote]
