Checking Backgrounds on Nannies

In the past most families had one parent stay home with their children when they were little, but as more and more both parents are career based the use of nannies has increased to allow for dual incomes. But nannies are people too and before you trust your child with just anyone you should conduct a thorough pre-employment screening to ensure they are the person you want to trust your child with on a daily basis. As caring parents it is not paranoia to run background checks on the applicants to your nanny position, it is just another tool to help you ensure you hire the right person to spend the days with your child when you are at work.
