Who had the list of questions for au-pairs?

[annh]

Remember that someone had a good list of questions to ask aupairs and wonder if whoever it was could CAT me and let me have it? Have a sneaking suspicion that our nanny has had enough of children and is interviewing for other types of jobs. As ds2 will be off to school in Sept. I am thinking that what we really need now is more of an au-pair plus so the questions would be much appreciated.

Hi Annh. I have a questionaire, but it's really geared more toward nanny position for a baby/toddler. Glad to share if you want it.

Thanks Uwila, I'd still appreciate it as it would at least give me a start.

Annh,
Have a look at questionnaire

If you want it in MSWord format, send me a CAT and I'll I'll be glad to sendi ti your way.

Good luck,
Uwila

Great, thank you so much. This gives me a good basis to work from.

Some ideas:

Why do you want to be an au pair?

Why are you interested in my family?

What kind of activities do you like to do with children?

What do you plan to do in your free time?

Do you have any special food requirements?

What have you done since leaving high school?

Then...Describe the specifics of your job (eg amount of childcare and cleaning required) and ask her if she is OK with this. Ditto if you want one of her workdays to be on the weekend.

kittermaster, can you please stop advertising your company on here. If you want to do so email [email protected], and arrange to do it through the appropriate channels. Thank you

Cat me if you want a current version in word format (if I'm not too late)
