[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's best to focus on finding a compatible family, after you find the best possible nanny.[/quote]
Ask the nanny what she prefers. People are different.[/quote]
That's nonsense.  That's like going to a butcher and asking him what he prefers to sell you instead of telling him what you need.  People find nannies to fit their needs, not the other way round.[/quote]

Yes and no.  The butcher could tell you that xyz cut is the best that week, and you can choose to get that or something else.  The nanny can tell you whether she prefers the same age or a difference in ages when doing a share, so you select for what you want.  [/quote]
Presumably, people look for nannies when their children are already in place. There is no need to inquire into the nanny's preferences because the children's ages are what they are. It's not like if the nanny tells you she "prefers" age difference X, the parents say, oh ok, we can work with that, there's a spare group of children in the back closet, we're gonna go and fish out a couple that fit your age preferences.  Parents recruit nannies for children of certain ages. The nanny can take it or leave it.  There is no need to discuss preferences since it's not possible to change anything to accommodate them.

You keep presuming wrong around here. I've worked with lots of parents who weren't obsessive control freaks like you. They understand that a happy nanny tends to makes a happy child. ;)[/quote]
