Usually all new hires from that point forward, but I have done work for companies which, because of a new contract they received have to do background checks on existing personnel.

Remember that anyone can do a background check on anyone anytime they feel like it. It's how you use it that the law is interested in. In the case of existing employees an employer would have to get their permission to conduct and use a background check, unless the consent form that they signed when they were hired included future checks.

An employer could tell an employee that he/she needs to sign the consent to be background checked otherwise you can't work for this client hence they may not be able to continue working there.

This is why I advise employers to use a consent form that covers them now and in the future.

Does a nanny agency screen their applicants?

This may be surprising to some, but not all nanny placement agencies screen their applicants. The more reputable will conduct an in depth background check on all of their applicants. When considering an agency, the smartest thing you can do is to ask them directly if they screen their applicants. If they tell you that they do, ask them if they will provide the results of the screening to you in order to assist you in making a decision. If an agency is on the level, they should have no problem providing you with all the information that you seek.
