Looking for a Nanny???

This is just a random post, nothing to do with Mothers Day or anything.

It is some information about Nannies that I wanted to share especially for people living in the Tri-State area. Some of these nannies are willing to re-locate within the US too.

If you are looking for Indian Nannies, try putting an ad in Indian news papers from NYC like India Abroad etc.

There is this Bangladeshi newspaper called "Thikana". You can fax them your ad and pay $25-$35 for an ad run for a week. Most Bangladeshi and Indian nannies in NYC peruse this newspaper for job openings and chances are your phone will be ringing non-stop

There is an agency in NYC whose name I don't know but the Ph. # is 718-205-9870. They are a good point-of-contact for Indian nannies too.

I have no ties, links, sponsorship from any of the above sources and I do not vouch for them either. Hire someone at your own discretion

Before you hire someone though, do a thorough background check, get several referrals, check out the family they have worked for before, spend a week or two with the nanny & your baby at your home after hiring, keep random checks by popping up un-announced and go with your instinct.
