[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked for an agency in the past and unfortunately, yes, many families discriminate based on age. Most families want a nanny who is in their 30's - early 40's and with no young children of her own because they don't want the complications that can come along with that.

I always encouraged families to evaluate each candidate individually. I knew many nannies in their 50's and 60's who could run circles around many 20-something nannies due to motivation and work ethic.

Not all families do this, and many place more of a value on an older and more experienced nanny, but you are not imagining things. It always rubbed me the wrong way, [b]especially the families who wanted a 30-something nanny with no kids[/b]. [/quote]

I hate that part too because apparently nannies aren't supposed to have any sort of personal life or life outside of being nanny. It's absolutely ridiculous. [/quote]  you think so?? I don't blame you you got bullied when you're young.  Exactly what you trying to do to others.  I can feel you got torn you never love yourself.  I can feel that for your word  sorry I hope you get help quickly.  I would never do that to anyone whether they are 50 or 30 or 20 or 45 if they have ability to go out there to do their best that's what makes them who they are you are RUBISH!!![/quote]
