Agencies regroup

Wednesday, April 28, 2004

A new organisation to represent nanny agencies has arisen out of a meeting last month to discuss the Government's latest rules on recruitment. Agencies at a forum held by the Professional Association of Nursery Nurses voiced dismay that the new regulations are not as strong as they would like, and that nanny agencies have too little support or means to share information. The Association of Nanny Agencies is starting out on a voluntary basis, with free membership open to all. Initially it will be administered by PANN, where those interested can contact professional officer Tricia Pritchard on 01332 372 337.
