[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MB here we specifically hired  a nanny that shared our religious beliefs. We wanted someone who reinforced what we taught our children. We wanted someone who would pray with our children.

As employers we posted our ad looking for this. I could see it being harder for a nanny to find this type of fit. Have you consider looking for work within your church community, op?[/quote]

Op here, 
I actually have a nanny job with a Christian family ( mainly because that was what I was looking for )
It would have been hard on me if I went with a family to only realize later on that they did not want me praying over my meals or praying over a hurt sick or sad child or talking about the bible ( bedtime stories ) 
It works out better for everyone that I am upfront about my beliefs because it plays a big part in my day to day life.

One of the pp nanny posters.  I am a Christian nanny never would I ever pray or talk about the Bible with my charges unless I was asked to do this.  I just don't think is appropriate or even right to do as a Christian. 
I don't actively seek to work for Christian families either when I have worked with Christian. families it is different we can connect on a different level, but I don't feel my role as a Christian is to surround myself with only other Christians or to "preach at" people .
I live my life one way and alot of that has to do with my faith and if people ask I have no problem telling, but I don't take that choice away from them.
