[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't rule someone out because of "chatspeak" (which is a great term!) because I could see that being a generational thing perhaps. But I do want basic fluency and ability to communicate. If I am in communication w/ our nanny during the day it is usually by text or email, so I need someone who can communicate reasonably well in writing. But I definitely don't hold the nanny to same standards of written communication skill that I for someone in my office based workplace. It's a huge plus, of course, but there are lots of wonderful caregivers out there who didn't have the benefit of as much education as others, so bad grammar or spelling aren't as important to me as good judgment, kindness, common sense, honesty, reliability, etc...
