[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are my criteria for being a great nanny.  I welcome all nannies to add on to my list:

[b]1) A great nanny is engaged and involved with their charges - he/she is loving and caring.  
2) A great nanny uses her cell phone and tablet ONLY to correspond with the parents, for emergencies, or for charge related communication (setting up play dates, confirming pediatricians appointments, etc.) NO personal communication.
3) A great nanny is never late.[/b]
4) A great nanny comes up with imaginative and educational activities for her charges on her own.
5) A great nanny does all child-related household chores if contracted to do so and as needed when the charge is napping or involved in independent play.  
6) A great nanny is knowledgeable about childhood milestones and childhood development.  
7) A great nanny is CPR certified and vigilante about child safety.  
8) A great nanny always arrives in a good mood (or acts as if she is in a good mood) and rarely shares personal details about her life.
9) A great nanny never forgets that she/he is NOT the parent.
10) A great nanny is NATURALLY GOOD WITH CHILDREN.
11) A great nanny stands up for herself (calmly and respectfully) and will not allow herself to be exploited by any employer for any price.

Just my opinion and how I conduct myself on the job.    [/quote]

I would hire and be thrilled with a nanny who just did 1,2 and 3 alone!  [/quote]
