[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can't seem to find one for love nor money. 
Been to agencies who've promised to find me one but once I register I get the stats that 1/500/300/1000 nannies want to live in and they start persuading me to look at live out.  I have my reasons for wanting a live -in. I'm over the bait & switch.

Looked care, etc- nothing.
I've had live ins for the last 16 years (3 in total) but can't seem to find one now some 6 years after I last looked. 
Are they a dying breed?
Help me find one. Where do I look?[/quote]

Live-in nanny here.  There are pros and cons, and the families who have hosted already know that, so kudos!

I have used enannysource, gonannies, nannies4hire, sittercity and care.  Although I found my current position through an agency, the owner was initially hesitant.  According to her, most people don't want live-in nannies.

My suggestion would be to talk to several agencies in your local area, but also look nationally.  If you are willing to talk over the phone and on Facetime/Skype initially, and meet the top 2 candidates in person, it works.[/quote]
