Thank you to all who participated in this lively discussion. When I posted my questions I suppose I revealed my naivete, which was a reflection of my short time here. It never occurred to me that some would think I might have less than honorable intentions. On further thought, I see how suspicion could have been aroused. For that I sincerely apologize.
I have read many, many reviews, and all of the viewable Arkansas listings on P411. I have selected a provider I want to see who says that she is "newbie friendly" and is highly reviewed here. (I just have to find the time during this very busy season.)
GinaXXX - Thank you so much for the reply. You told me exactly what I needed to know and put my mind at ease. I work for a family-owned business, and if someone were to call the HR department they would be speaking to the wife of one of the two partners. I couldn't risk that. I will be submitting my application soon.
Lily - I have read many of your reviews and posts, and viewed your web site. Even before your gracious reply and PM you were on my bucket list. I hope to make your personal acquaintance in the not-too-distant future.
MrGiz and arklookn4lovn - I understand your reticence and appreciate your stepping out on the proverbial limb.
I am no less grateful to those who replied whom I have not mentioned by name.
