I have used Annie's Nannies several times to find child care for an evening out, or for the day when my child needs to stay home from school. They are always very professional, prompt, and send great nannies! We like the nannies so much, we have requested the same ones again. I definitely think it is worth using Annie's, even if you just need an evening out and want reliable, competent child care.

I love Annie's Nannies. They have been nothing but helpful in helping us find our last 3 nannies/personal assistants. We have also used their temporary services - that is actually how we found one of our nannies. I have always felt that they took the time to understand our family needs and sent us very qualified candidates. They check in with us and have always been willing to work with us. I highly recommend them in finding safe and reliable childcare and personal assistants. I wouldn't use anyone else.

My son is an infant at the school and has a wonderful relationship with the staff. He enjoys all of the daily activities the center provides. I would highly recommend young child academy. It is most definately a diverse group of families and teachers.

I'm not sure who loves this place more me or the kid. He and I might fight the mom over the title actually. We love to just kick it here and we are always inspired to find new ways to play. We love the story times and snacks. We love the train table and tent. We love the kitchen and the cozy book readin' chair. Oh, and the toys are great too. The kid feels welcome here and that is often in short supply in some toy stores.

I had a son start at CCC when he was 1.5 and he went through until K and a daughter that started at three weeks old. It's a wonderful place... They learned soooo much and were given unconditional love. It's priceless. I highly recommend them for daycare.

My daughter went there for 2 years (2 mornings a week) from age 23 months - until age 2.5. Nan is really the gold standard for child care. I was a bit nervous sending my daughter at 23 months, but I quickly realized how ready she was for some additional social interaction.

The Seattle Pacific University Website www.spu.edu has a classfied section. Click on childcare and you will find GREAT postings of babysitter/nannys that are available right now. You can also create a 'wanted' post with your EXACT (dates, times, children's ages, etc.) needs and you will get responses from college age sitters. I posted an ad and got many responses from great sitters as well as other parents about nanny-share opporunities. I would recommend settting up a new free (yahoo or hotmail) email account when posting an ad like this.

I'm not sure why the last gal only gave this site a 2 star rating when she hasn't even used them yet, but I can tell you that this is one of the most valuable babysitting finding sites out there. In Kirkland they have over 200 sitters. It's $40 to join - but just a small monthy fee after that and I can tell you it's worth it, especially if your new to the area or don't want to pay costly agency fees. It's a bit like "Match.com" for babysitters and parents - sitters are rated by parents that have hired them, and it's up to the parents and the sitters to determine hourly rates, etc. You should definately check them out.

No we aren't ogres (at least I tell myself that), but we have worked with no less than five nannies in the last 12 years and Careworks, although expensive, has been terrific. The remarkable thing is that all have been great people and we keep in touch with each one to this day which is pretty amazing when you think about.
Linda really cares about finding the right person that fits you. You and your significant other take both a personality and a parenting test and so does each nanny she has prescreened.
The test itself taught me more about what it would be like to be a parent and how different folks are that I would have ever though (example, if your son is arrested for shoplifting, would you blame yourself, rush to him right away,....). Not the thing you want an anxious first time dad to answer :-)
In any case, it means that you have more to go on than just is the person nice. A nanny spends hours and hours with your kids, so it is nice to know their styles are the same.
