“If you are looking for a Nanny, the safety and security of your household and loved ones is at stake, and it can be emotional and time-consuming to select a qualified, trustworthy nanny on your own.”
Are you searching for a Nanny that you
can Trust?
Let me share some tips.
n Know what you think an ideal candidate looks like.
What behavior is most
important to you?
o
Adaptable
o
Collaborative
o
Can Handle Stress &
Ambiguity
o
Dependable
o
Trustworthy
o
Job Skills
o
Motivated to Work with
Children
We can help you
determine what the ideal candidate looks like.
n
Know what to look for on the
applicants resume.
o
The resume is a ticket to an
interview where the applicant can sell themselves!
o
If parents have 100 resumes
to screen for 1 nanny job, how do they sort them into one of 3 boxes A – B – C?
|
A
Meets all criteria |
B
Meets some |
C
Meets none |
We can help
sort the resumes into the right boxes, so you can focus on the Quality Category
“A” Resumes.
n
Know what interview
questions need to be asked.
o
Most parents will do some
form of interview. Therefore, it becomes extremely important that you know what
kinds of interview questions that need to be asked.
o
Some parents will ask
questions like “tell
me about yourself”. What
response are you listening for?
o
Other parents will ask
behavioral questions – Looking for examples of times when candidates have done
things like they will do on the job. For example,
“Tell
me about how you’ve coached children to become more successful.”,
“Give me an example of what you have done to earn others’ trust?”
o
How do they respond? Do they
give you a good example from their past jobs, experiences, and achievements. Are
they direct and honest? Are they “faking-it” or exaggerating – Do they tell you:
·
What they
did
·
How they did it
·
What were there results
o
Do they make a
favorable impression
We can help by
conducting screening interviews, so you can focus your interview on the Quality
Candidates
n
Know what you want from a
Background Check (Does your Background
Check contain):
o
Social Security Number
Verification
o
Up-to-date name/address
information to compare to the application/resume
o

felony convictions and misdemeanors
