    We used a local agency.  It cost more, but they handled all the pre-screening and background checks.  We also get backup care through the agency if our nanny is sick or otherwise takes the day off.  I wasn't comfortable using any of the public websites where anyone can put an ad.  I don't know if it was the area we're close to, but there were no quality candidates.

    Local agencies are a good start. They take care of taxes that have to be pulled from the nanny's paycheck and go through background checks.
