Does anyone know how to find a "Mary Poppins" type nanny for my precious 2 grandsons? They live on an Indian reservation in South Dakota and are 2 and 4. My daughter is a nurse mid-wife there and is having a horrible time finding a reliable and trustworthy nanny. Any suggestions from you, my sisters, would be appreciated.

I know my son's girlfriend works for an on-line agency, and she's not only had good results with them, but also with her placements. You may try that. I wish I could remember the name of the .com, but you can do a search. They should let you ask for references. If you need me to get it from her, I'll be happy to. Good luck with your search!

I'd appreciate it if you would get the name of the agency for me. It's always better to have one that's recommended by someone else rather than taking a shot in the dark. Thanks in advance for your help.

Nancy,
What res? I have quite a few contacts with people on many of the different reservations. If you want to email me privately, I'll do my best to help you hook up. I used to teach school on one of the Native AMerican settlements.

If it's not illegal, unsafe, or immoral, why not try anything once? Who knows? You may come back for a second helping! |
