[quote=Anonymous]Could be...Or maybe not.

While it is true that some families may immediately judge you on the way you look (unfair, I know...But it does happen), for them to actually schedule an interview with you in the first place does show that your age is not a factor. Because if it were, they never would have asked you for a meeting in the first place.

I would keep the effort up, perhaps there are just a lot of nannies looking for families in your area at this time.

I personally prefer older, more experienced nannies vs. a nanny in her twenties.

Reason being is that younger nannies typically always have to be "connected" meaning their cell phones and iPads are their fifth limb.

They also may be getting some financial help from their families so nannying may just be something they do "for extra money." Or in their minds, easy money.

Older nannies have a better work ethic in general, are more mature and have more life experience to boot.

Bonus if they have already raised their own children.[/quote]
