[quote=Anonymous]We are starting to look for a nanny but don’t need anyone until December. I understand we are a bit early so might be willing to pay a retainer for the right candidate until then. Baby will be six months old, and we will continue to WFH (which I know is a dealbreaker for some nannies). We are currently paying our overnight newborn care specialist $34/hour and would be fine continuing to pay that for a nanny, but at that rate we would want an experienced and qualified nanny. Are we best served by using one of the agencies or advertising here and on neighborhood boards (in Bethesda)? I understand that one of the benefits of an agency is that they can send backup care if the nanny is ill or during her/his vacation time, which is appealing, but we haven’t heard back from White House Nannies after our initial inquiry a few weeks ago. Thanks![/quote]
