  We used www.sittercity.com for a sitter and they have nannies as well.  Our sitter is fantastic!

  We used sittercity as well to find our wonderful nanny.  You end up doing a little more work (screening applicants) than you would with an agency but it is way cheaper.

  I am actually a nanny myself. I have never needed to go through an agency (I lucked out and found my jobs through Craigslist and Gardenmoms/via word of mouth from a mom who knew me).

  That being said both of those resources are great. Sittercity is also great. If you are going to go the agency route I met with American Nanny a few times for info and everyone I met was very professional. Beacon Hill Nannies is also a wonderful agency. Both can get pricey, but they are very thorough.

  I usually tell parents to at least try Craigslist or GardenMoms..both are free, so it's worth a try!

   Good luck, and if you have any other questions I'm happy to help.

  I would highly recommend Boston Nanny. I myself am a nanny and have also worked in their offices as well as gotten several jobs through them. Your friend won't be disappointed.

  I think sittercity is amazing! it's nice because you can find people who have paid to run background checks on themselves -- a little safer than meeting who knows who on craigslist or other unsecured sites.

  As a longtime Nanny,I always searched on my own. The best year I have had no luck and joined a few Agencies.

   I joined Beacon Hill Nannies and personally they have been of no help to me. They are very,very rude.
