Tools available to help you in the search for your nanny
That's it, you've decided. After comparing all forms of care, you have decided on nanny.
All that remains is to find her! Fortunately, many methods are available to you.
The key method: topnanny of course!
Try browsing on the site. You can filter by distance but don't stop there. Your super-nanny might live a bit further away and willing to commute. You can search for nannies "with recommendations only". This will show only the nannies who provided contact details of their previous employers.
Other methods of finding a nanny
Nanny agencies
Agencies that place nannies with families are certainly more expensive than direct employment, but offer additional services that can be attractive. For example, the agency will select nannies for your application, it will take care of administrative procedures (establishment of the employment contract, tracking payroll, ...). They can also provide a replacement in the absence of your nanny. It is a turnkey solution, reassuring and comfortable, with usually a direct contact but be sure to find a good quality agency.
Word of mouth
Activate your network of acquaintances! It is not uncommon for a friend or family member living near you to have used a nanny or at least know one nearby. Experience (good or bad) can help you in your quest for the perfect nanny! In any case, do not hesitate to approach the subject amongst people you know. The recommendations given by your loved ones will be invaluable.
The park, the schoolgrounds
Up to you to make your investigate: watch nannies with other people's children. Are they patient? Inventive? Nice? Go talk to them: how many children do they watch? Do they know nannies looking for children to care for? This method takes time but can be effective and reassuring. And even funny if you go hunting nannies with a friend. Nicole, blogger for BabyCenter tried "picking up" a nanny at the park; read about her experience here.
Flyers
Your account nanny-top you can print flyers. You do not usually need but if you live in an area that doesn't have many nannies, remember to distribute at retailers in your area, in front of school the school, local job boards, etc.
