[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks all for the feedback. Do you usually place ads in craigslist, and on these nanny forums, or have better luck going through agencies?[/quote] Hi OP. I'm also a mom in McLean who has one baby and recently hired a nanny. We tried care.com and sittercity and both had horrible candidates. We finally found our nanny by posting our own ad in the nanny section of DCUM. We also interviewed several people whose former employers had posted for them on DCUM (those posts that say "my wonderful nanny will be available in 2 months) and honestly those may have been the worst candidates we interviewed. We interviewed a lot of people -- probably at least 20 -- and on the last day finally found 2 wonderful candidates. For 2 young children $15 is average. Good luck![/quote]
