Update: Finally found a nanny

I have posted on here several times about my nanny problems and just wanted to update everyone. My situation was that we initially hired a nanny off of care dot com, but then found out she was smoking on the job. My LO was a little early and IUGR so it was completely unacceptable to have a smoker caring for him. She had lied about being a smoker during the interview. So, obviously, we had to let her go.
Then we hired a new nanny who turned out to be really great. Unfortunately, about 2 months into the relationship, we found out she was going to have to move back to India due to some personal issues.
So, basically, I was looking for a new nanny for the 3rd time in 6 months. We scheduled several interviews, but only 2 ladies showed and neither of them was a good fit--one live far away and wanted significantly more money than what we wanted to pay (and the going rate) and the other just didn't even seem like she liked kids. Then we started looking at daycare, but that didn't seem like a good fit either. I was to the point of feeling pretty despondent. Fortunately, someone new applied to my add on care.com. We interviewed her and she seemed really great. She has just moved to this area. We checked all of her references and she got rave reviews. I am really relieved. I just hope that she sticks around now...

Re: Update: Finally found a nanny
Lurker following your story and I am SO happy you found someone! What a crazy nanny/child care ride you have been on!
I really hope she is here to stay as long as you need her and works out. I have been working with the same family for 18 yrs! I'm sure you probably wont need her that long...lol. Good luck
ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive. Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)
DE IVF #1 (4/26) BFN DE FET #1 (6/4) BFP! Beta 1=339 Beta 2=852 Beta 3=9957 EDD 2/22/15!!
That's great news! I think we've also found our new nanny and I'm going to extend her an offer tonight. She's also our third nanny, but over 2 years. FX that these nannies are great and stick around for a while!
