What questions should I ask when I interview a Nanny?
When interviewing a nanny people often wonder what questions to ask. A list of questions is important, however we think there is much more to the interview then questions and answers. How is your chemistry? How do you feel around her? Are you relaxed? Are your personalities compatible? Is she easy to be around? Have your kids around. Does she interact well with the children? Does she have an easy smile? Sit down and talk. Talk about anything – the weather, the price of milk, or your favorite food. When interviewing a Nanny remember that she is interviewing you too!
Stay tuned, we will be posting here on our blog a list of some sample interview questions that you can feel free to use!
