The care of your children is of the greatest importance. Finding the perfect nanny should not be just a roll of the dice, but a detailed, careful process. Before you hire a nanny, keep these thoughts in mind.

Register with agencies. The more agencies you register with, the more resources you will have available to choose from. Ask for resumes and background information, then make a few selections for interviewing. Take the time to talk to several prospects so you can get a feel for different childcare styles.
Interview. Set up interviews during a time the children are present. You can get an idea of how the nanny would interact with your kids and if you approve of the style. Discuss your ground rules like is it OK to take the children out, can the nanny have guests over and if you enforce a limit on the amount of time your children spend watching television.
