[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Live-in nanny here. I don't always meet a family before starting the trial period, so this may not apply to you. When I apply, I state that I have a resume and background check which I am happy to supply after an initial phone interview. When the family knows that I am on of their final candidates, and I know enough about the family to want the position, then I offer my reference list. Between personal references, former NFs and volunteering, I have aout 15 references, and they're sorted into 3 reference lists, based on the ages of the children and job responsibilities. There's no reason for a NF with elementary age kids to call the NF who had twin infants/toddlers, as the ages and multiples don't match.[/quote] I can't imagine not meeting a family before starting a trial period. Never even heard of that.[/quote] I move across the country, and I do as many skype interviews as necessary to feel comfortable with the family. As I said, it's not for everyone.[/quote]
