Interview with a Nanny!

We asked a childcarer with over 20 years’ experience working with children to share some of her best advice and top tips for new nannies and parents.

  1. My top piece of advice to a new nanny is to find out as much about your new job as you can within the first week. Ask questions about how your employer likes things done, where they keep things, when you should do things. Check regularly that you are working the way they want you to and make changes if you aren’t. And don’t take offence if you’re not getting things quite right to begin with. If you can do this, and remain open and honest, you will be happy in your job. Continue reading “Interview with a Nanny!”
