By the way, to OC nannies, while I don't blame you completely, I do please some blame on you for telling me this woman was eligible for rehire. There is a reason she has a seven year gap on her resume. I beg of you, if she ever comes crawling back to you for a job, do...

Oh hey, let's not forget you kicking my dogs, who were between three of them. They ran and hid from you every awful day that you lived here.
They are terrified of you.
And I know why, because I have nanny cam video of you kicking them. It took us several months to get...
Original review Aug 25, 2016
I was a first time mom with a part time RN job, and a full time school schedule, getting my Masters degree in nursing, as well as my nurse practitioner certificate. I placed an ad on care.com, and had several responses. One was by a woman, Christi Larsen Davies, Who claimed to have worked with OC nannies for over a decade. neither my husband or I want to live in, but she stated that she only does live in. I found out later, it's because she has no money, and needs to squat. I called OC nannies to verify her reference, and they told me how wonderful she was, and they would recommend her to anybody. She started with us in August 2014, and although she did not work for the first week that she was here, because she was moving in, she demanded to be paid. She took my daughter on errands with her, personal errands, rather than actually spending time with her. She is a straight up psycho, and I was able to reach some of her former employers, who told me to be very afraid, because she's crazy. And she is. The Lord above blessed us, when she wrote a letter of resignation on December 14, 2014. She gave us two weeks notice, and I told her that wouldn't be necessary, and I wanted her out in 48 hours. Thank you Jesus, she left, but not after threatening me, my husband, and my daughter. And, she came into our home in the first place because of a recommendation from OC nannies. This company is a rip off, they flat out LIE about their nannies, and don't care at all about the protection of children. STAY FAR AWAY. Christi Larsen Davies is a psychopath (I have hundreds of frightening stories) and OC nanbies gave her an excellent reference, despite the fact that when I spoke with every other person who she had ever worked for, at least the ones I could get in touch with, they told the same horror stories. I am a mother of 3 now, as my twin son and daughter are now 4 mos old, and my daughter (who was in Christi's care for 4 months) is now 3, and after my terrifying experience with her, I cannot bring myself to hire another nanny...especially since the majority of them use OC nannies as a reference, the very same company that gave an excellent reference to the complete lunatic who lived in my home for four of the scariest months of my life. THEY ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED. And, to anyone reading this, if you ever have a nanny request from a woman named Christi Larsen Davies, do not even consider speaking with her, let alone hiring her. She is mentally L, and I feel sick to my stomach that I allowed her to "care" from my one year-old child during those 4 miserable months.
Here is my wish. I am in desperate need of a nanny from my twins.
My wish is that my comments will not deter you from accepting my business in the future. It is a well-known fact that OC nannies is the best in the business.
I sincerely apologize, and I would never do anything to purposely hurt such a wonderful business. Thank you.
