I am starting a little research into a nanny. Do any of you have experience with a particular nanny agency? Good or bad feedback will help narrow down my search. Or do you have any advice abour starting my search? I am starting to get fed up with daycare and want to start looking at my options. Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you all for your help. Your feedback was very helpful. We have decided to start our search for a nanny to start in January.

Just in case you are interested. . . we hired a nanny through enannysource. She was completely dependable and did a great job helping our son learn (started with us when he was 9 months old). She stayed with us a year and only left because she was moving out of state. Long story short. . . I have just learned that she will be coming back to the Dallas area within the next month or so (she is nannying now and will stay with the family until they have a replacement hired). If you are interested - let me know and I will get you her contact info.

(We would take her back in a heart beat but have moved our son into a montessori program now that he is 2)

Good luck in your search.

I recently posted on SitterCity (it's nice because you have access to background checks) and I also posted at all the local University career/job sites and got a lot of interests there (they are free!)

Hi A., I used an agency 8 years ago to find my nanny, but they are out of business now. I actually logged onto the site because I am trying to help my nanny find a new assignment. She has been with us since my oldest was 11 months (she is now in 4th grade). My "baby" is not in first grade and we just don't need the same level of care. She has been incredible. My girls love her like a grandma (she has already raised her kids) and she has been ultra-reliable. She is still working for us right now (with not much to do) because we want to help her find a new family. Let me know if you would like me to send you a letter of recommendation and her details.
