TOP TIPS FOR A HAPPY AND SUCCESSFUL PLACEMENT
Finding the right nanny with the right experience is difficult. Finding the right nanny with the right experience who will get on well with every member of a family is very very difficult!
You are inviting someone to live in your home so chemistry is key to making a successful placement.
While you want your nanny to feel at home, you may want to establish some house rules so that everyone is on the same page and there are no miscommunications. We recommend that you provide a list of house rules including any curfews, whether they are permitted to invite friends over and, if the kitchen is shared, when they are able to have access to the kitchen to cook for themselves.
The family should provide a legally binding employment contract stipulating the contractual working hours, duties, benefits and salary.
A nanny should be given their own private room and bathroom. If that is not possible, then a bathroom only shared with the children.
It is very important that a live-in nanny has complete time off when she is not on duty. Of course there should always be flexibility but do not assume they will babysit unless prearranged and any extra babysitting that has not been agreed in the contract should be paid for.
It is important that the children in the family respect a live-in nanny’s space and time off. They should not be allowed to go into her room in her free time. It is most likely she will be a good, kind and friendly nanny and won’t have the heart to send them away; but she may feel that her free time and private space have been invaded.
