Interviewing a potential nanny tomorrow...
and I would LOVE any advice! This is our first time interviewing and I'm very nervous. Can anyone offer some MUST HAVE questions? Or any other important things I should address?
TIA!

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
