[quote=Anonymous]I'm an MB and I don't really understand this concept either.

I have hired two permanent nannies and a few interim nannies (for long term vacations/medical recovery).

I have never hired a nanny I felt was substandard in any way - nor would I.

I also haven't hired a nanny from whom I expect lesson plans (though my kids aren't in school yet.)

I have had great luck meeting lots of qualified applicants in a pay range of $15-19/hour.  I've chosen the people who were the best fit for our family.  I haven't found (nor do I expect) perfection.  With each nanny there are unique strengths and, occasionally, small challenges.

We work those things through together.  If I needed an agency to come in and work with me I'd be failing in my job in hiring and managing a nanny.

Perhaps when I was hiring the first time I could have used your guidance and found it quite helpful, but honestly - other mothers gave me tremendously useful advice and leads, and that's how I hired.

So I'm just not sure your business model, as it's stated here, is clear and/or likely to succeed.

I'm also not sure it's appropriate to come here and sell your services in quite this way, but that isn't my call.[/quote]
