[b]Compensation, Insurance, and Taxes… Oh My! - The Business Side of Nannying[/b]
It's the perfect job, but now it's time to negotiate.  What about insurance?  What taxes are involved, and who is paying them?  Whether you are negotiating a new compensation package, looking to amend your current one, or thinking ahead to your next position, we will cover everything you need to know about the business side of being a nanny.

[b]How to build a successful nanny portfolio[/b]
Think about it… artist, models, photographers, even baker's show off their work when trying to get hired. As a professional  nanny  having a portfolio  is something that is very important and a game changer when it come to interview with for a job. Having a well-organized nanny portfolio not only shows a potential employer that you’re prepared, but it’s also a convenient way to keep everything that you might need organized in one place. All in all, your nanny portfolio should showcase how experienced you are and what makes you stand out from other nannies that may be interviewing for the same position.

[b]Oh, The Places You'll Go With Special Needs in Tow![/b]
Working for families who have a child with extra needs can be full of extra joys and extra challenges. From navigating a diagnostic process, to supporting parents, to coordinating therapy appointments, to the hands on daily tasks of caring for a child with developmental/emotional/medical issues, a nanny is easily kept on her toes. We'll talk about the role of a nanny in these homes, being a bridge between parents/therapists, universal resources, and how to face the challenging days with professional grace.

[b]Baby Led Weaning. What's all the fuss about? [/b] 
Feeding in the first year is on a continuum that begins with milk feedings and ends with solid foods and cups.  Starting solids is truly an adventure worth sharing. Starting solids involves all the senses and encourages lots of exploration. Purees are designed to be a very time limited stage, so let's explore the concept of baby led weaning and introduce strategies for a smooth transition that fosters independent feeding and a healthy relationship with foods.  Some key points:
* Milk feedings are first in the beginning
* Offer lots of variety in food color and texture
* Soft steak fry-sized foods are great beginning foods
* Picky eating before 18m is a problem
* Narrow spoons with a shallow depth are best
* Approach lips horizontally
* Avoid depositing food on the roof of the mouth
* Open cups and staws cups are winners
* Spouted sippy cups (while popular are a no-no)
* Not all babies fit all high chairs. Find a good fit chair
* Tray height matters
* 5 point harnesses restrict movement and feeding abilities
If you are curious about starting solids, need ideas and food options for your families, join us!

[b]Joining Nannies and Others Together in a Global Movement toward the Prevention and Mitigation of Child Sexual Abuse[/b]
