[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks all for weighing in and thanks for the link to the previous thread, pp. I couldn't agree more that moral education is an important component of childcare. My aversion/concern is making sure that moral education isn't packaged in religious beliefs. I really really like one of the nanny applicants and the kids just seemed to connect almost instantly with her. That said, there were numerous mentions of god (in somewhat innocuous context, as in "God has blessed me" and mentioning her salvation in the interview...so I am just torn.

We would never ask her to hid or limit own practice (hell, I don't care if she prays in front of the kids as long as it isn't all day) but I just can't imagine having the awkward talk about "hey, when larlo asks you about praying, remember to keep it to a brief note about your personal beliefs and no evangelizing"

Based on feedback here, and my gut, I think it is probably best we chose an alternative.

I agree OP.  I'd keep looking.[/quote]
