You should hire your nanny through an employment agency and they will provide you with all there documents.

As for checking criminal history i have no idea. Your going to go through a few nanny's before you find a good one.

I hired Burmese maid and registered them when they allowed it a few years ago.. Thai maids are lazy (no offense)

Best is really to hire someone who is related to, or from the same village as Thais that are close friends or family.

Usually for child care, have to go through half a dozen for each that ends up working out, at least for me and my kids, much more critical than cleaner/cook - or even bedmate for that matter.

I had a good one once, she was a relation of the lady next door.

I think word of mouth is important and also that you know where her family is, she'd think twice then before doing a runner with any valuables.

It's good to have a fluent English speaking nanny, that's why many pay a little extra and hire a Philipino.
