Professional Nannies-How to Make the Best Professional Nannies Last in the Job

By Alice Sy


Professional nannies are few, even rare. Families who happen to find the right nanny would want to keep her for life. Sometimes though, the nanny would eventually flee away. There are many reasons why nannies leave their employers early or last in one job. The family's treatment and standing is one of the main causes. With a professional nanny, a long lasting relationship must be established and it is possible.

Set Realistic Goals

A nanny from a nanny placement, about to work for a family but with no clear job purpose is a sign of doom. Their tasks should be laid down even before her works starts. The employer can make it easy by engaging in a contract specifying the tasks of the nanny, whether it is child minding alone or some housekeeping duties. In case the employer decides to add some duties, amendments can b easily applied. At least the nanny knows what to do and what not to do.

Give Rewards

The nanny agency ensures the family's ability to compensate for their professional nannies. Be on time with her salary to protect her interest and keep it intact. Make her love the job by giving surprises, like gifts or extended day-offs or other bonuses. Offer a salary increase like every five years or so to make her job financially rewarding.

Treat her respectfully all the time

Any employee in the family needs to be respected, the same goes to the nanny. Make the nanny feel like an important member in the household. Don't scold the nanny and be patient when she commits mistakes. Give regular praises or make her feel she's appreciated. Never treat her like a slave but a helpful worker and household member.

Professional nannies are great and special helping hands. Their abilities are praise-worthy. With these special workers, families would do well to never let them go. Having a professional nanny around is like having a rare gem. With this invaluable treasure, better keep it around.
