I am from the eastside (of Seattle) and could find out the name of the agency that my friend uses.

My recommendation is that you always start with friends and co-workers – see if there is anyone that they know of and have had experience with as a Nanny, and would recommend. Can never go wrong with a recommendation – or if you do, you then have someone that you can hold accountable for whatever failure may occur :-) .

We just lived through both sides of your decision. Previously, we had a 57 year old Polish wonderful woman who was with us for 4 years. LOVED our kids, extremely protective of them (much more than my wife and I at times) and very patient. She was single, with family back in Poland, so our family was all that she really had here in a sense, and I think that was a big part of how wonderful things were with her. An added bonus to her coming to take care of our three kids was in those few fleeting moments of synchronous nap time, she would do OUR laundry, or clean the house – wonderful. The one thing that she didn’t do was be strict in laying down the law or dish out punishment when rules where broken. So make sure they have the “balls” to be the bad cop at times. Neighbors of our hired a Nanny that had an child education background – and she had a ton of activities and projects that she did with their kids (and mine when we were over there). So ask questions about what they would be doing to pass the time, develop skills, etc. Maria loved the outdoors, and had our kids outside whenever the mercury reached 37 degrees or higher. Some of our neighbors with Nannies were extremely jealous of this.

We’ve since moved to the suburbs and everyone now is in Daycare. We are constantly battling some sort of cold as they swim through the “Chicago Southern Suburbs Daycare petri dish, which we knew went with the daycare territory. Also, getting three of them dressed, in the car, and to daycare is a daily war, which leaves me with little energy to tackle my day at work – so we’ve thought about going back to daycare, for at least the two little ones, so that they can be in a more healthy (physically) environment, and make the morning trek somewhat easier. But having said that, we’ve decided for now to stick with daycare. Their immune systems may be working overtime, but we’ve rationalized that as a good thing for the long term. And they do so many things with our kids that we would have never thought of doing, or would have thought of trying in our house (paint, field trips, food, etc.). For now, the upside of daycare seems to rationalize the hassles associated with it.

Strangely enough, for us, the cost of daycare 5 days a week for three kids came out to be about the same as our Polish Nanny for all kids, 5 days a week. Don’t know if that meets with the common perception. It was a bit of a surprise for me.

I hope this helps. I love your blog and your writing.

We hired a young girl to come into our home the two days a week I go to work. We paid her an outrageous sum, more than we could really afford. And she was young. And I honestly was not all that comfortable with her. And her youngness. She had been recommended to us by my aunt, as they both attended the same church.

Lo, she got ill (she had some major health issues) and I was able to gently, but firmly, fire her. It sounds really harsh, but it wasn’t. If you want, I can give you the details if you email me.

Anyway, about the same time, an old friend of the family, still young, but older than the first girl, moved back home after college. And we hired her. And we love her. And I pay her about $15 less a day but she doesn’t mind. And it is awesome.

And that was a book, but I wanted to say … it will work out for you. Check churches, family and friends, craigslist, mom’s groups, local message boards and local colleges. You will find someone y’all love and trust.

You are a smart mom. You know what you need to do. Trust your instincts and go with it.
