It seems that ‘contemporary’ English allows the use of ‘who’ in the following sentence. However, in academic setting, English purists would (likely) use ‘whom’ based on traditional grammar rules – I think.
The Bradfords, whom/who I have to babysit for, are planning to relocate to the West coast.
If I am sitting for an examination, I think I would use ‘whom’.
Thank you for helping me to understand :-D
