[quote=Anonymous]Interviewed two people who I really liked. This will be our first time having a nanny. We have a 6 year old and a 2 year old and will have new baby in f fall. One parent will be home most of the year - between WFH and parental leave.

Candidate 1 - been a day care worker and nanny for a while. Is not currently a nanny as does translation services for a school. Established. Worked for a friend of mine years ago. But was very low energy on the interview. Almost seemed bored / disinterested, but answered all questions with good ideas. Did not blow me away and both kids are high energy and high attention (6 year old is super extrovert and needs a lot of attention since school is computer). But would be able to manage 3 kids and set up routines.

Candidate 2 - 22 and new. Worked in a preschool as an assistant for a year. Would need a lot of guidance and explanation but would be high energy and go go go. Would most likely need help with routines and I don't know how she would do with all three on an outings, but since parent would be home most of the year, maybe something we could help her learn.

Experienced families - who would you pick.[/quote]
