Re: Interviewing a potential nanny tomorrow...

These are the questions I asked.

What is your experience?

Do you have a curriculum/schedule you like to follow?

Do you know CPR?

What do you do if my child chokes?

Do you have references?

How flexible are you?

Re: Interviewing a potential nanny tomorrow...

What ages did she babysit for before?

Is she adverse to light housekeeping or baby laundry?

What does she expect regarding vacation/ holidays/, etc.

How much is she looking for salary wise.

Is she flexible if you need her to stay late or come early

I would have her interact with the baby to get a feel how she might be with the little one.

If you want I have a few checklist and other information if you want to fm your email address I can forward to you
