This is really important when interviewing with a good agency. Be prepared.

Excellent advice above!

Good luck!

Also, have all vaccinations and flu shots ready. I know some families who require this and is a must. I’m assuming you’re up to date with this. Also, dont accept an hourly pay range unless you know you’re completely comfortable living off of it. In addition, make sure you are clear as to what you’re there to do. For example, be clear about what you expect to do (baby’s laundry NOT parents, tidying up children’s area etc). I say this from experience

I am getting ready to move from being a teacher in the infant center of a good preschool to becoming a nanny. I am going to meet with a good agency here in Los Angeles.

Any tips or pointers would be appreciated! I want to impress the agency and the potential employers in interviews.

Thanks for any help or insight!
