Your child's safety and happiness depend on the nanny you choose. A structured interview helps you spot the right person. Use these ten questions.
- How long have you worked as a nanny, and with what ages?
- Why did you leave your previous household?
- Can I contact your last two employers?
- What would you do if a child became ill or injured?
- How do you handle tantrums and discipline?
- What does a typical day look like for you?
- Do you have first-aid or childcare training?
- How comfortable are you with cooking, hygiene and routines?
- What are your expectations on pay, hours and off-days?
- Are you comfortable with a trial period?
Look beyond the answers
Notice how the candidate interacts with your child, whether they are calm and honest, and whether their story is consistent. Verify identity and references before the start date.
