Should We Go with a Nanny in OUR Home or Go to HER Home? Help!!

I think a nanny in your own home is the best way to go. Having the nanny come to your house will help your child adjust and I am sure she/he will be more comfortable in their own home rather than being in a new place for naps and feedings.

There are two companies here on this site that I strongly recommend and have used myself.

NannyBrokersUSA
Blessed Little Angels

I have used the director of Blessed Little Angels and
used Nanny Brokers recently when my nanny was sick and I needed a stand by.

All of the ladies were awesome!!!!

I don't think 3 levels would stop you from getting a nanny in home. I can say this for a short time I left my children in the care of a women who told me she had experience with a child that had developmental delay which one of my children did. i never got references and I trusted her after watching her with my kids. So after a few months of working I noticed my kids hated going to her house she made fun and let her 4 yr old daughter make fun and embaress my 4 yr old child with dev delay since he still needed pull ups. She also watched other children and I think she watched to many for me and Ga law allows people to watch a large amt of kids at your home which includes your children (the babysitter). She also had lots of people in and out family/friends/others she watched children for. I for one think since I have experienced this even with my children a little older now I would have someone come into my home one I can get a nanny cam and yes i feel people need to earn your trust second I feel I can stop into my home as a surprise at anytime. In some else's home which this women made me call before coming even in the evening to pick up my kids, your own home you shouldn't have to call. i think the dog would be an asset and the nanny would have to get used to it. It is alot of work to pick up every, pack stuff and drive to a nanny, I think it is easier for her to come to you. There are many services out there look into them and research them many nanny agencies are very reasonable in fact I looked in the one's that live with you and they are very reasonable they have a fancy name other then nanny but the are reasonable. If I get ready to go back to work in the next few yrs I will be looking into a nanny that lives with us or comes to us.

Hello B.. I could not sleep so decided to see what's new on Mamasourse. First and foremost my name is L.. I read your concern and just new that I had to introduce myself. I own a Nanny Service in the Metro Atlanta area and just recently interviewed several potiential clients in your area. I would love to speak further with you if you have not made any decisions. I will tell you that the way my service works is that I will meet with you and your husband first and gather up all your concerns, times of need, days of need etc.., then I match your family up with a Nanny or two and you will then interview with them deciding on whom ever you feel will work out best for your baby/family. My telephone # is ###-###-####. Call me M-F anytime after 9am. Look forward to speaking with you soon!

I don't think that any of your concerns will stop you from being able to get an in home nanny. With that being said I personally would prefer that someone come into my home and watch my child. There is comfort for them when they are so young to sleep in the same bed all the time and be in familiar surroundings. Maybe when the child gets older and you feel they need more socialization maybe taking them to an home daycare might be an option.
