We are going to pull our kids out of nursery (long standing problems with staff turnover, poor management, etc) and get a full time nanny instead.

One of the girls who looks after our youngest is absolutely fantastic and we would love to have her nanny for us. I know that it is not pc to do so but does anybody have an tips for poaching nursery staff! I think that they are on around £12k a year (presumably gross) so a nanny job would be a big cash up for her (alot of them leave to nanny anyway) but what else should I be offering her to tempt her away (we thought about paying for her to do one training course a year if she wants, etc).

Haven't got a clue how to do it (I'm not very tactful as you're probably quite aware).

But if she's the one which you feel would be right for the job then I'd definitely go for it.

you're taking your kids out because of high staff turnover, and you're going to errrrr increase their staff turnover even further?
