So, people who have had good/bad/ it?s ok experiences with nannies, what signs at the interview, if any either indicated to you that things were going to work out well, or, in retrospect should have maybe nudged you into thinking ?no?
Am interviewing for a replacement nanny today, our current nanny was filling in a year until her grad placement work started, so we lose her in Nov. Both dh and I interview people fairly regularly at work, so we?re pretty comfortable in the whole ?what kind of questions? and what to look for aspect of the interviews, but am aware that interviews often don?t flush out potential issues, so we?ll obviously be following up references/paper trail etc but I was wondering what in retrospect may have made you reconsider your choice, or conversely things you picked up at interview, that than made you feel validated in your choice. The lady is coming round today, I?ll have 30 min with her in peace, then dh gets home with the girls, so we can see how she interacts with them, plus if today goes well she?s free to join current nanny with the girls tomorrow morning, and see how things go without us there (and I trust our current nanny?s people judgement a lot as well)
