[quote=Anonymous]I would ask them more age and nanny job-specific questions such as the previous posters mentioned. This will give you an excellent idea of their knowledge and experience regarding caring for children. Also, get a feel of their personalities. Watch how they interact w/your children. How genuine they seem. Do they seem like they are trying too hard to impress you? Or is everything coming naturally to them? Are they asking age appropriate questions to them? Ask them what activities they would do w/them on a typical day. This is a very telling question because a knowledgeable & very experienced nanny will know exactly what children at a certain age level like to do. Bonus points if she is actually familiar w/specific things kids this age like. I.e., book titles, popular characters in film, cartoon, etc. Also, ask her what qualities she feels she possesses that she feels set her apart from other nannies. What she feels make her unique. Hope this helps. [/quote]
