hello all, as for all my important decisions, I need MN to make it for me :)
we're looking for a P-T nanny for our girls (3 and 5), after school. we've interviewed two ladies: one is young, energetic, lovely manners and artistic temperament, not much experience as a nanny but i think she would be perfect for our girls. The other is a mature lady, worked as a nanny/housekeeper for many years, is a mother herself.
we liked the first one better- purely because we thought she could complement our parenting better, giving the girls exposure to another type of personality and background, stimulate them etc. The second lady was also ok, but not as sparkly.
trouble is- nanny number 1 is only going to be around for another 9 months whcih will mean starting all over again in march. I know childcarers can always leave.... but idk.
what do you think? what would you do?
thaaaannks :)
