I wouldn't even know how to do that here in Mexico, and if I did, I probably wouldn't trust the results. Fortunately I got someone who had been working for a friend for 10 years, we know exactly where she lives and all that jazz, so we feel good about her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-210865 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 15:36:06 +0000 immabeetoo 210865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We won't be having one but I'd definitely do it if we were going to, and I'll check any potential babysitters. Having worked with volunteers in the past who had to have background checks run... you would never believe who has what in their past based just from meeting them! Definitely worth the money. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-210841 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 14:55:27 +0000 heffalump 210841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a nanny, but if I did I would if I didn't know them. I do a background check for people renting my house .... so I'd also want one for someone taking care of my kid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-210824 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 14:35:43 +0000 MsMamaBear 210824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I work there and the state has all records online of any wrong doings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-210796 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 13:54:23 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 210796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of ours came on recommendation from others who had used them in the past, so we didn't need to check because someone else already had. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-210790 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 13:49:09 +0000 regberadaisy 210790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really but my husband's cousin works there so that's all the reference we need! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-210787 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 13:42:18 +0000 Teachermama 210787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didnt...only because when I met her I could tell that she'd be the perfect person to care for baby, just got lots of good vibes, and I could feel that she was very loving and responsible. I heard from other people who knew her and they recommended her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-205602 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 20:02:29 +0000 SAHM0811 205602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we did background checks ... Re: one potential nanny we found via a website, we found that she had had a history of identity theft. needless to say, she wasn't hired! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-205594 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:57:28 +0000 MamaMoose 205594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes we will for the nanny we will hire for a few months before day care. But not for the day care providers. The school we are going to takes care of that when hiring. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-205580 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:54:08 +0000 Andrea 205580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: hahaha!</p> <p>Yes, I have done background checks and called references. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-205546 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:44:35 +0000 banana 205546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom watches my son so we only looked up her criminal records. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-205442 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:17:23 +0000 chopsuey 205442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will if/when we get a nanny! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-do-a-background-check-on-your-los-nanny-or-daycare-provider#post-205436 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:16:08 +0000 mrbee 205436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't! Well, we hired our first nanny through a strong recommendation who had great references. In retrospect, we probably should have done a background check anyway.</p> <p>Did you do a background check on your LO's nanny or daycare provider? </p>
