[quote=Anonymous]As the immediate PP said - employment can show up on background checks.  You should probably just assume that your other employment will become evident to a potential or current employer at some time and be prepared to handle that.

I think you also need to be prepared for different perceptions in what you did before choosing to become a professional nanny, versus what you decide to do WHILE being a professional nanny.  Potential employers might think differently about those two scenarios.

I don't judge you for making your living this way, and I don't think it's the same as prostitution (though I admit to not knowing a great deal about the spectrum and where various jobs fall along that line).

I'm a pretty liberal MB but I think I would be uncomfortable with having a nanny who is also earning money with this kind of modelling.  I'm not sure I can be particularly articulate about why, and I'm not even sure I'm proud of the sentiment.  But I think that if I had two candidates for a position and I felt both were equally qualified I would go with the other candidate.

Sorry.

Best wishes.[/quote]
