[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At age 20, just graduating college with my BA in child psychology, I was a full time nanny for a 3 year old and twin infants. It was my first real nanny gig with competitive pay and benefits. I was with the family for 4 years. 12 years later, I am a very professional nanny specializing in infant care. I definitely don't believe you can judge on age alone. Many 20 year olds have more experience in life than some of their MBs. By age 20 I had already spent 6 months volunteering in an orphanage in Peru and a year working with pre-mature infants in a hospital in rural Kenya. [/quote]

That's cool. We still have no idea how good you were at your job, though, you know? You may have been great - I'm sure you'll insist you were - but you might have been pretty crappy. We just don't know.

And yes, a lot of parents keep crappy nannies for years on end because they don't care, don't know, or are intimidated by the thought of finding someone else who might turn out to have the same (or worse!) shortcomings.[/quote]
