How to Hire a Nanny

This was the best book ever, it gave you every possible scenario, answered every question before you asked it and even helped me create applications, job descriptions and a work agreement. wonderful tool!

This book is terrific! I am a nanny with more than 14 years experience and I advise parents and nannies on many issues involving the nanny/family relationship. This book spells out-in concrete terms-the legalities of having in home employees. It also addresses both sides of many issues including, vacations, contracts, benefits, preformance reviews and much more. It is an essential tool for any parent who wants to be a good employer, a key to keeping a nanny long term. The nanny/parent relationship is one of the most difficult employer/employee relationships out there and this book lets you address issues before they happen. Communication is the key! It has lots of great real examples as well as an appendix with loads of useful forms and other great information. A must have for anyone with household help!
