[quote=Anonymous]As an MB, I suggest that all nannies to the sign-up process at care.com as a potential employer.  All you need is an email address and a zip code.  You do not even have to be from this country.  While there is a background check offered for nannies there is none for potential employers.  They do not even ask for a business license number or proof that you are an agency.

Please do not send any personal information attached to your ad response even if asked.  I would never ask for a resume prior to meeting and would be suspect of anyone who does (what mother would ever want her daughter to open herself up to internet strangers like that?!).

I found our amazing nanny on care.com.  I did a phone interview first and invited her for an in-home interview.  After about 30 minutes (where she was deciding on us as much as we were deciding on her) she handed us her resume and references.

I suppose a vague resume would be fine - with your name listed as "Mary S." with no address listed and general information like where you went to college (but not the year of your graduation) and a description of your previous positions with no names.

Please be careful, Nannies.
