[quote=Anonymous]I would be wary and cautious. We got completely burned by a nanny who, two days before her start date, showed up at our house with a terrible, terrible story of a family emergency,  had her friend in two who would "fill in" temporarily.  She cried in our house so we decided to trust and believe.  We held her job for her for a couple of months and then she told us she would not be able to do it because of the supposed family emergency and that we should just keep her friend.  We did not want her friend.  The whole thing was a nightmare and did not give our baby the stability we so wanted in those months.  She had terrific references and was great in person, but it turns out she is clearly not an honest person.  Anyway, I recently saw an advertisement posted for her on this board and by the dates, it was clear that she had taken another job at the exact same time that she would have started with us two years ago.  By now, we knew she had lied about the supposed emergency and we are way past it, but I still got pissed.  The unprofessionalism is incredible.  I figure it is her loss because if she had been working for us, she would still be working and not looking for a new position!  Mine is a cautionary tale. Keep alert.[/quote]
