Poll: Best places to put an ad for live-in nanny job?

[AtheneNoctua]

I'm pondering Greataupair.com and Nannyjob. But, I was just wondering who has had good/bad experience with those or any other places recently.

My best nanny came from gumtree, and I've interviewed a couple of duds from nannyjob (was a couple of years ago though).
If I were to need a live-in nanny I would try ringing around local childcare colleges to see if they could recommend anyone because most live-ins are at the start of their careers.

As a nanny I always look at nannyjob and my local netmums.

I don't bother with gumtree much as most employers seem to want nannies on au pair wages.

look at this. You can get a bodyguard at the same time!

I've advertised both for nannies and an au pair (during our "au pair phase" before we realised we really needed a nanny) on Gumtree. We eventually hired our after school nanny from Gumtree and she's fantastic. Very highly qualified, charming, organised, professional, the works. I WISH I could afford to hire her full time. I still think you can find some good candidates on there.There are some shocking jobs around (as is clear from the other thread.) They may gravitate towards your job quickly!

Such a good idea from Millarkie. It was a strategy I had hoped to deploy but DH keeps getting cold feet about a live in (right about the time the Gumtree ad goes up, in fact.)

I have found previous jobs on gumtree and netmums.
