[quote=Anonymous] discuMy name is Susan Tokayer and I am one of the co-presidents of the International Nanny Association.  I am writing because I have read the thread about the INA and conference and I would like to share my thoughts about our conference and our association.

I have been a member of INA since I started my business in 1995.  One of the things that was most appealing to me when I joined, and still is, is that an association exists that is both for nannies and business owners in the nanny industry.  I also now belong to APNA.  I have attended APNA conferences, Nannypalooza, and of course, INA conferences.

What I have enjoyed about all of these conferences and associations is that we have many common interest, yet we are all different.  It is nice to have the opportunity to view our industry from different perspectives.  The nanny industry is also so large that there is room for all of us to exist and flourish.  At INA conferences I can speak with nannies informally, as well as other business owners.  I have met wonderful, dedicated professionals - both nannies & agency owners.  And, I have learned a tremendous amount.

It is our goal to represent all of our members, and we value all of our members.  Naming our INA NOTY is an example and one of the highlights of our conference.

Currently our membership is 900, which represents both nannies and businesses.  We have always defined ourselves as "the umbrella association."  The nanny workshops are selected and organized by a committee of nannies, the newborn care specialist track by NCS and the agency track by business owners.  Most attendees feel that the workshops are extemely valuable, as is the networking and socializing time.

I am sorry to hear that there are people within our industry that feel that their interests are not being represented in INA.  I am happy to speak with anyone directly that would like discuss how we can do a better job, which is always our goal.  Susan Tokayer: 914 674-8535.[/quote]
