[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Id hire you for my newborn come June! If you are a good fit for our family otherwise. I have no qualms about older nannies as long as there's a personality match and you're not coming off as condescending. I can however imagine in this Information Age that some moms feel like they know everything or have plans on how to handle everything and don't want an older adult to deal with. [/quote] I'm a MB and don't understand your last sentence. When you're the boss, you dictate how you want things done. When you hire an employee with experience, they can (and should) give suggestions based on past experience or education, but ultimately the boss decides what they want done, when they want it done, and how. My MIL thought there was nothing wrong with using baby powder because she used it in the 80's. She's very "spry" for her age and will go rock climbing and stuff with us, but she has old info.
