[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry.
It is 2 kids. Ages 6 and 4.
6 year old is in full time school and 4 year old goes to school twice a week until 2 pm. So she has 3 full days with 4 year old from 8-5 and then two days just 2-5. Its about 30-35 hours. Yes she will drive them.

I meant like: what would you do if 4 year old had a tantrum? how would you handle it? Questions like that. The questions that truly test if they know children and aren't going to freak when my 4 year old cracks it over something silly.[/quote]

I'd say anyone that really knows children knows that there isn't a cookie cutter response to "how will you handle a tantrum?" 
She has no idea what your child's tantrum are like. Does he/she cry? Stomp feet? Kick? Scream? Spit? Swear? Throw himself/herself on the floor? Throw toys? Bite? I'd be a bit dumbstruck if a parent wanted me to tell them how I handle tantrums if I knew nothing about the child. [/quote]

So - Potential employers just want to know how YOU tend to handle tantrums in your past jobs. If the child has a behavior problem or has mental/emotional problems I'm sure the parents will let the potential employee how they'd like her to handle their kid but for the most part, they just want to see how you'd typically handle a normal, child tantrum.[/quote]
