[quote=Anonymous]Hiya OP.

I’ve worked both 24/5 and 24/7, in addition to grueling 70-90 hour positions that didn’t involve overnights.  I’m also someone who happened into nannying and found my calling.

1. What do you enjoy most in your current position?  Is it something you can look for when interviewing for your next position or something that just will have to happen organically?

2. Do you like living with the family?  Is it something you will look for or accept in the future?

3. Do you take any time to do networking at nanny conferences or NNTD events?  Have you done any training or education dealing with early childhood education, ncs, discipline, special needs?

4. Did you enjoy switching from nanny to nanny/household manager?  Is that something you will do in the future, or will you look to move on when the family transitions the children to full time care/school outside the home?

5. Did you negotiate legal pay and a contract or just accept what the family offered?  $20/hour for a live-in isn’t bad, especially if you started at $15-16 with the family, but it’s not high enough for an ncs.  Did you have a separate contract for ncs prior to three months?[/quote]
