[quote=Anonymous]I would not hire this person. as others have said, she is not financially repsonsible, and frankly, the idea of going to a new employer who just hired you and you have not started yet and ask for money advance is appalling. if she is so goodI assume she has worked for other families who must love her and appreciated her. why is she not asking her former employer to lend her the money? she could just sey that she will give it back with her first check, and if she has worked for years and is appreciated and trusted by this family she should not have any problem. frankly, the fact that she thought asking you could be fine is appalling and shows that she has not good judgment. and careful about believing that she is so good (did you check the references, are they real or any chance they are fake? - I remember I thread a while ago where an OP had found a fantastic nanny but the reference was so pushy that she finally realized something was off) and what she tells you about her situation. I frankly would consider this a red flag, and loosing the $400 would not even be my first concern, it would be leaving my kids in the hands of that person.  I also agree with others that if she had to guts for this kind of request, this is not going to be the last "emergency" [/quote]
