PARENTING-PARENTS, PLEASE BEWARE OF SOME NANNIES!!!

11 YEAR OLD NANNY SEXUALLY MOLESTING A  4 YEAR OLD BOY 
Recently there is this disturbing video that has speculated on the internet and Blackberry about an 11 year old girl (nanny) sexually molesting a four year old boy while assigned to bath the little boy. This incidence took place on May 22nd, some where in Iyara Warri, Delta state, Nigeria. Unfortunately, this controversial video of (these two doing almost everything adults do during a sexual act) has been uploaded online and has continued to draw attentions and generate several comments from people condemning child pornography and blaming who ever took the delight in recording the scenes and uploading it online and some wondering where these children learn all these from. In as much as it is unbelievably disgusting and sickening, on the other hand, we should be grateful that this video is an eye opener to all parents and guardians with adult house helps or nannies to please keep a close eye on their children because sexual molestation is real and it’s happening everywhere.

Your child deserves the best and oh yes, he deserves a good nanny especially if you are a working class parent. But do you go in search of a good nanny?
Finding Child Care Candidates
For many families, a nanny comes by word-of-mouth, recommended by friends or co-workers. Other options include an au pair nanny, an online matching site, or a nanny agency. 
Vetting Nanny Candidates
If  you don’t have access to a nanny academy graduate, there is still a lot you can do to screen a nanny before hiring.The first thing is that hiring a nanny is not about what is good for you, but what is good for your child. Hiring a nanny is an investment in your child's future.
Best strategies include:
Think about what you need and how much you want to spend.Do you want a live-in nanny? Can you offer benefits?
Consider what nanny qualifications are most important. Do you need a nanny who can cook? Are your kids too active for an older nanny? Are you more interested in your kids' physical activities or cultural activities? Think of what type of nanny personality will best match your kids — they are going to be spending a lot of time together.
Do a background check. This includes references from other jobs. Call previous employers. Don't be afraid to ask for driving, criminal, and health records.
Put it in writing. Have a written agreement that includes rate of pay, hours required, and spells out all of the nanny's expected duties.
The Nanny Interview
The most important part of vetting a nanny is asking the right questions. Here are sample questions to include in your interview:
  • What would you do if my child won't go to sleep?
  • What are your thoughts on disciplining a child?
  • What are your hobbies, favorite activities, and interests?
  • What do you like to read or watch on television?
  • What kind of meals will you cook for my child?
Bringing a nanny into your home is one of the most important decisions you will make about your child's education, nutrition, safety, and happiness. What I look for in a good nanny is imagination, ingenuity, and innovation. This is a person who will have a big influence on your child's educational and cultural development, so make sure your nanny has the qualities you want your child to absorb.
