01/09/08 Searching for a nanny - on Craigslist? (BloggingBaby.com)
Published 01/09/08 19:13:16
Filed under: Babies , Toddlers , Money & work , Life & style , In the news , Playground bureau , Weird but true , Childcare , Mommy wars , Mommy musts , Resources Recently we all got a good laugh, intentional or not, from a mom who posted on Craigslist looking for a nanny . For those of you unfamiliar with Craigslist, it's a now international site where one can post or look for anything from a job to household goods (used baby clothes too!) to a hot date, and everything in between. Hence, it should come as no surprise that someone would post looking for a nanny. Finding a good nanny, especially in a city as big as New York, can be daunting at best. Sure, there are many to choose from, but they're expensive and trolling through their credentials can be arduous. All the good ones seem to have been snatched up by a neighbor uninterested in doing a nanny share. Finding affordable daycare, however, can be twice as hard. There are waitlists and questionnaires long enough to boggle the mind. All the good ones are very expensive, and few if any actually provide a discount for siblings (often they will give your child preference over another if you already have a child in regular attendance). I find myself in this very situation right now. To live in New York, I have to work full-time, so childcare is a necessity for me. I am a Brooklyn mom so things in my part of New York should be less expensive than, say, the Upper East Side (from whence the poster looking for a nanny hailed), but it's still eyepoppingly absurd how much everything costs. If I were to put both my kids in daycare it would cost more than my new mortgage. Yep. So a nanny seems like a good idea, if I could just find a good one that wasn't too expensive and that didn't need to live with me. I, too, have thought about posting on Craigslist. Perhaps not in quite the manner in which the other mother posted, but it's certainly crossed my mind. After all, folks post for everything else so why not? Would you post for a nanny on Craigslist or any other site or is that a crazy idea? Also, if you happen to be a nanny or know of a good one in the New York area, please let me know. My kids are NOT a pain in the ass. They're cute. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

16/08/08 Boy chained up for five months because parents couldn't afford child care (Nothing To Do With Arbroath)
Published 16/08/08 10:17:00
A sad seven-year-old boy shows how his parents chained him to a wall for five months ? because they could not afford a nanny. Ilko Todorov was shackled ?like a dog? each morning before his parents went to work. The metal chain, attached to his leg, meant he could move only a few feet, causing him chronic injuries. He was left just bread and water for his lunch. But his ordeal ended when worried neighbours heard his screams and called cops in Goce Delchev, Bulgaria. Neighbour Nikifor Ivanov, 38, said: ?They kept him like a dog.? Ilvo?s dad Ilija, 40, a metal worker, and mum Marija, 34, face cruelty charges. Ilko, speaking at a foster home, said: ?I?m happy here. I miss my mum, but not my dad.?
