[quote=Anonymous]You also need ask things like:
"What do you think are the most important qualities of a nanny?"

I was looking for someone who had specifics and NT just generic answers. Nannies who said that safety and health concerns were very important were good. Ones that mentioned washing their hands all the time and being on top of diaper changes. Ones that soda it was important to engage with the kids in developmentally appropriate okay and gave examples of that for different ages. 
There are no right answers. There are some wrong ones like the pp said above. You are looking for someone who will be with your kid for 8 hrs a day. They have to either share your parenting philosophy or be amenable to care for your kid how you want them to but also have common sense. Just use the questions as the start of the conversation. You and your partner and the nanny are a team in caring for your child. Who do you want on your team? 
I asked what the daily schedule for the nanny was with her previous charges. What they did. Etc.
