Straight Up

The only thing you want to handle after a day of tantrums and teething is a martini (blue cheese olives, please).

As for the nanny search? Hand it over to Olive You Nanny childcare placement agency. The Atlanta outpost of the Chicago-based company is headed up by Brenda Tilley, whose resume includes a bachelor’s degree in human development and family studies as well as a master’s in early childhood education (plus some honorable hours logged in both the nanny and pre-K teacher trenches).

Whether you seek a share, parttime, or around-the-clock help, Tilley conducts background checks and interviews, matching your family’s needs and personality to appropriate candidates.

So you never have to get shaken or stirred.
