Interesting article from the Association of Nanny Agencies (ANA) about some of the overlooked risks of using an online site to secure a child care provider.
As with any encounter originating online, we advise job seekers and potential employers alike to exercise common sense before agreeing to meet anyone you corresponded with online. The first meeting should always be in a diner or Starbucks and make certain to get the full names and contact numbers of anyone you're meeting with beforehand. Call to confirm the appointment and establish the legitimacy of the contact information. And if something seems awry, trust your gut and move on!
