[quote=Anonymous][quote]I wholeheartedly agree that one must not ask for references prior to meeting a nanny in person. I see on certain childcare websites like Care and Sittercity that they highly recommend nannies post their references on their profiles since this will increase their chances of getting jobs, but honestly it makes no sense for a family to contact a nanny's references before even speaking to her. References should only be contacted after meeting a nanny in person and after a family is close to hiring her. [/quote] What you believe or prefer doesn't matter and Care is correct. If a nanny posts their references and the employer can speak to those references before speaking with her, it does increase her chances of getting the job. You may not like it but it has an impact so its appropriate to inform nannies that its up to them to make this choice. [/quote]
