[quote=Anonymous]We did phone interview (short), in-person interview (longer). We liked one of the people we in person interviewed and felt like she would be a good fit. We offered her the contract with the first day of work as a shadow day (I took the day off). I did more of the morning and she did more of the PM. It was a time to show routine, show where things were, answer questions. At the end of the day, I asked her if she felt like it was a good fit and that I did think it was a good fit. She was paid cash for that day, but at the same hourly rate. The next day we did all the paperwork and signed up for payroll and all of that. We also wrote a family handbook so gave that to nanny to try to answer many questions about routine, discipline, lunch, nap ... Then we did 30 day probationary period where either party could walk away from the arrangement at any time. After that, we ask for two weeks (from either side). [/quote]
