[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you have not hired a professional nanny. Got it. I’m sorry you can only find babysitters who are not dependable. Have you considered trying to do a better job during interviews and checking references much more thoroughly?

[quote=Anonymous]With us, it's NOT ONLY about how expensive is local childcare,  it's more about how un-reliable local childcare they are, they call off the day anytime they want at the last minute, if you ask them to work all 5 days, they say they need weekend off starting Thursday night, they usually come in one hour late and always need to leave an hour early. They have tons of issues not to make it to your house when they know that you need them.

When we say we dont need them, they started behaving, and act like they really need the job and is very very sad and cant survive for the next day because we are not hiring them anymore.

The reason for their call off - (I need my life , I have mensural cycle, my bone is aching, my sister is having back problem, my parents misplaced the car key and I cant find them, my boyfriend is off on these days so I am cant work, I got something to take care.....etc...the list goes on ) They also demand $20 per hour with very poor quality of care.

The OP was decrying $20/hour.  If that's all they offered, and it was part time, they're just going to get unreliable college kids.  It doesn't matter how well they interview.[/quote]
