[quote=Anonymous]I'm an MB and we recently went through this debate when looking for a new nanny. Kids are 3 and 6 and we wound up hiring someone older than our previous nanny. (Last nanny was in her 30s, new nanny is in her 50s.) Honestly I'm at the park with my kids a lot and I do some occasional running around (playing "chase") and will help them across the monkey bars if needed but I don't spend the time there running all over the place or following them up every ladder (as I did when they were toddlers). I'd be concerned if our nanny were sitting there reading a book or talking on the phone the whole time, as I'd like her to be tuned in to what's going on generally, but both our kids are at an age when they're happy to play together or with their buddies and don't need someone within arm's reach every minute.
