So that I don't have to squeeze all these websites down on the back of a business card or receipt and so that you don't have to worry about losing that small piece of paper, I thought I'd post it for both parties convenience.
So if you're just starting out or in your first year or two, these are the websites I'd recommend when finding a family.
Most of these websites the families have to pay for, the nanny does not. Some of these websites the famillies can browse for free and but in order to obtain contact information, they have to pay.
www.gonannies.com : GoNannies is actually where I found my first family, The Dorseys in 2008. I don't know how I stumbled upon it but it worked. I think it's a good price point (around $125) for families to join. This is also where I found Kent in 2010.
www.nannies4hire.com : I would rate Nannies4hire and Enannysource very similar to GoNannies. Even though it's been a few years since I've been on either one, I remember them both having easy navigating and browsing features.
www.enannysource.com : Enannysource, a long with the rest of the sites, has an internal mail/message system which makes it very nice for your protection and privacy. When you receive mail at your nanny account, you will get an email to your gmail, hotmail, etc. letting you know.
www.care.com : This website reminds me of upgraded, more luxurious (and safer!) Craigslist. It lets you be more specific to the location you're looking in. In addition to childcare, it offers services like pet sitting, elderly care, etc.
