[quote=Anonymous]OP, I seriously considered hiring an undocumented nanny. I didn't realize she was undocumented when interviewing, and I absolutely adored her. After realizing she was undocumented and discussing further, it sounds like she was paying taxes, but her employers were not. They were paying cash totally off the books. Ultimately what made me not move forward was that if something horrible happens, you have zero recourse. There are stories of undocumented workers not calling 911 during a medical emergency because they don't want the police to come. Also, these folks tend to live totally off the grid if they're making cash. If say, they decide to kidnap your baby, you really have no way of tracking them down. You can't run a background check, etc. Tax illegalities aside, it was just too much risk for my comfort.[/quote]
