[quote=Anonymous]Yep, I'm with Nanny Deb.

I'd hire B.  A sounds like she might be great, but B is here, tested, proven in your house, enthusiastic, interested, experienced, stable and mature.

As an MB I can assure that stability and knowledge of what it takes to keep a whole household on track is INVALUABLE in a nanny.  Your child will presumably have multiple levels of support and therapeutic attention.  If Nanny B is open to being taught the therapies you want in place then she sounds like gold to me.

I would pick an experienced, mature, stable, career nanny - especially one that I've seen demonstrate enthusiasm and attention w/ my kid - over a less experienced student every single day of the week.

I have to say though that your comments about her weight and diabetes don't reflect all that well on you.  Just because she's overweight w/ diabetes doesn't mean she can't do the job.   Just because someone is young and slim doesn't mean they're healthy.  (In fact, in my experience the older generations have a vastly more reliable work ethic than younger ones.)  Nor should you assume that there will be boyfriend drama w/ the younger candidate.

Expect the worst and you'll get it.[/quote]
