If until now you're starting to
find a babysitter, fear not, there are many ways to find a qualified person to
care for your child. Good strategies include putting a message on your social
network, call nannies and professional agencies advertise in the newspapers and
Internet forums.
Ways to choose the nanny may vary
depending on your needs. If your baby is going to be alone with the nanny, you
start with someone old enough and mature. The Organization of the Red Cross
says parents should not choose someone less than eleven years to care for his
son, although some experts have greater caution and suggest that anyone is
ready to nurse before fourteen.
