First, Elizabeth goes by Abby which was the first weird thing. Not sure why her profile doesn't just say Abby. But the main issue was that we hired Abby for a permanent part-time (2 days per week) Nanny position. We offered the rate she requested and planned to start her on the date she said she could start. She visited us twice in advance... once for an interview and once the week before the start date to see where everything is. But the night before the start date, she said she wanted to start the following week because on her last day with her other family, they asked her to stay later. We had no coverage at that last minute, but gave her the benefit of the doubt. However, when the new start date rolled around, she stood us up again. We had to contact her three times before even hearing back, and then she said "family emergency, so sorry!" and that's the last we heard from her. We again had to scramble at the 11th hour for coverage, in addition to having to begin our search again, after my husband's job already started. Her behavior put us through a tremendous amount of stress.
