[quote=Anonymous]I think you need to listen to your gut. She assaulted another person badly enough to go to jail for TWO MONTHS. Also, the fact that this behavior happened after age 30 suggests that she may have some impulse control issues, at the least. It would make me question her judgment. How close are you with the other family she worked for? Can you call them and ask if they did, in fact, know about the charge and jail time? I hate to discriminate against people who had done their time and (hopefully) rehabilitated themselves, but hiring a nanny is not the same as hiring a secretary or someone to make your latte. This is someone who will be taking care of your defenseless, non-verbal infant, and will be mostly unsupervised. You want to be able to trust that the nanny has good judgment and a relatively calm temperament. Would you ever be able to really trust this nanny? For me, the answer would be no way. [/quote]
