Here you are with all your old responsibilities and, suddenly, or so it can seem, you have a new responsibility in your arms. So you've decided to find someone to help you care for this precious being. I'd love to help.
Every family is different and has different needs. Every nanny is also unique.
As a licensed social worker with clinical training and over seven years of nanny placement experience, I offer something that I believe is rare -- a combination of professional expertise and practiced intuition. My placement service is personal.
I keep in contact with families over the years as their childcare needs change providing resources to other professionals, resolving conflicts with their nannies to keep those they hire, peforming evaluations to ensure an effective partnership and supporting families and nannies through transitions when they occur.
I have worked with busy executives from Fortune 500 Companies, such as Google, Yahoo and Apple. Others are attorneys and physicians working long hours and changing schedules; and many others who have chosen to stay home with their children during their early years and need some extra help with the children. Whether you are a GLBT family, have a special needs child, a family going through a transition such as divorce or managing an unexpected medical situation, I can help.
I know what questions to ask you and how to use your answers when considering the pool of candidates. Depend on me to spend the time necessary to find, hire and keep the right nanny and work through the logistics. Let me show you that it is possible to choose a Nanny with the Right Qualities for your family.

The stigma against parents hiring nannies: it’s alive and well in 2009!
In more recent months, the stigma against parents that hire nannies has reared its’ ugly head again. It began with the allegation that Caroline Kennedy withdrew her nomination to take the Senate seat vacated by Hillary Clinton because she failed to pay the nanny tax. It continued with the withdrawal of Nancy Killegrew and Tom Daschle for the same reason. The outcry against these politicians has re-established a long-held stigma against parents that hire nannies - that only the rich and famous hire nannies, and that their failure to pay the nanny tax is symbolic of their attitude that they are better than the rest of us hard-working, poor folk.
