[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Parent said that they fired the last nanny for being “mean” to them. Clarified (still during interview) to mean that the nanny told the parent that they needed to make sure their was food in the house or authorize restaurant food for dinner. Parent did admit that there was no food for kids’ dinner... 2. Parent said that they fired the last nanny for being mean to kids. Following up on that, they don’t modify the kids’ behavior at all, but the nanny had tried to stop one child hurting the other. Yeah, no... I go into an interview expecting it to last 1-2 hours. With a mental checklist, I ask questions until I feel like I know enough about the family to think it could last for at least a year, without issues. If a family doesn’t want to answer questions or the answers don’t match what I think could work long-term, I move on.[/quote] What are the kinds of questions you ask families during an interview?
