Am currently job hunting so lots of interviews for nanny positions

Would you offer drink to the nanny your interviewing?

I've found some do, quite a lot don't

Yes then, surely that's normal?

By drink I mean your normal tea, coffee, water, squash

I would offer tea, coffee, squash.

I wouldn't ever offer alcohol during a job interview, regardless of time of day. It would be weird.

Most offer me tea, coffee, water etc nothing stronger! Not sure if you meant a drink in general or something alcoholic. If the children are around then they tend not to offer anything but if just the parents then yes they offer esp in the evenings.
