How Do You Find a Nanny? - Minneapolis,MN
So it hit me today that one of my best friends is having a baby on basically the same day as we are. We all work full time and will need daycare as of December and I was thinking we could probably share a nanny! That would be so great. But now, where to begin? Anyone having experience finding a nanny? How do I go about doing this. ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

There are agencies in MN that have nanny's for you to interview you pay a fee for them to find you a nanny.
Otherwise their are nanny's on sittercity and babysitter.com

We found both of our fabulous nannies using Craigs List. I was learly, but it really was a great medium to sort through potentials wihtout exposing my famliy to strangers during the "vetting" process. Good luck!

Go to Google and type in "find a nanny minnesota"...You will see lots of nanny websites. The first page listed is from Resources for Child Caring [it is actually a pdf file]. That has a lot of great information including where to look, what to look for, tax information, etc.
I have not looked for a nanny before, as my son is attending a childcare center, but the first thing I do before any big step is Google it!

My friend who lives in Edina used Nannies from the Heartland to find her sitter. She really liked them. They also helped her with the paperwork regarding paying social security for her nanny.
