[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I interview nannies through an agency so I'll throw in my 2 cents Do you have a portfolio? Everyone has a bachelor's degree and full time nanny experience. I'm looking for specialized certifications- sleep consulting, newborn care specialists, child nutritionists, car seat techs, PP doulas, etc. Also experience with HP/HNW families- travel experience, live in experience, over nights, household managers, etc. Special needs experience- SPD, Austism, ADHD, allergies are the most commonly sought after experience from parents Then interview skills- arrive early, dress nice, showmen you know your stuff. When I ask what you do with your nanny kids, dont tell me you take them to the park and library; say things like sensory play, plan activities to promote the development of gross and fine motor skills, etc.[/quote] This is all pretty good advice. But if you don’t have the college degree, no worries, as long as you know child development inside and out. And you never stop learning.[/quote]
