[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here...Nanny A is too much of a risk. She has no formal nannying experience. Occasional babysitting and special needs respite care are very different than all day with young children...particularly one with special needs (coming from someone who works with a special needs child). She is also moving to the area for a guy. If the relationship goes south you may lose her if she decides to move back home.

It is very possible for an experienced nanny to be able to follow the directions/suggestions of your child's therapists. I've been in my current job for almost 4 years, and in that time I've had to communicate with, coordinate with, and incorporate directions and suggestions from 4 different types of therapists.

The diabetes and overweight issues in Nanny B are a bit of a concern, but since she brought up her diabetes you could ask her for more info regarding her management of it or ask her to undergo an employment physical so her doctor can sign off on her ability to perform the required duties of the job. Daycare centers do this and there are plenty of other jobs that do as well.

If these are your only options I would choose Nanny B provided a health exam checks out. If you can look into a few more candidates you might find someone more ideal without the health concerns. Good luck. [/quote]
