[quote=Anonymous]I have to agree w/you on all counts that the younger nanny  pool is not going to have the same work ethic that the older ones will have.

While it may sound prejudiced + unfair of me to say this, in my own personal experience this has always been the case.

The younger generation does not have enough life experience under their belt to understand how leaving you high and dry w/out childcare can throw everything in your life off. Most of them have never personally experienced true hardship and they have no idea how challenging it really is to raise a family while working.

Older nannies tend to be more responsible, have more empathy for your situation and would also be more likely to relate to your challenges on a more personal level.

I have and always maintain that an older nanny will be more responsible, mature, considerate and take her job more seriously vs. a younger one.

Plus, younger nannies have an advantage since many of them can still rely on their parents if they need financial assistance.

P.S. One note: Are you sure the nannies that are quitting w/out any notice are doing so of their own accord? Because even though you state you pay well, etc., any nanny regardless of her age may quit suddenly if the job is not a good one. I.e., feeling taken advantage of, being talked to w/no respect, etc.[/quote]
