Beyond Pay: What Matters When Choosing a Nanny Job
We get it – money matters when you take a job, but there’s more to it than just that. A recent survey from our payroll partners, GTM Household Payroll & Nanny Tax Service, showed that the top reason nannies use agencies is the higher paying jobs (with guaranteed hours and benefits), BUT the most important factors that nannies consider when choosing a family are their trustworthiness, ethics, and personality.
Let’s dive into the real deal-breakers when choosing a nanny position!
Trust & Respect: First things first, you’ll be caring for someone’s most precious kiddos. Make sure the family trusts you and respects your expertise. Open communication and support are a must!
Values & Vibes: Do the family’s values and parenting style match yours? You gotta be on the same page, or it could get rough. Find a family whose vibes click with yours.
Personality Party: You’ll be spending a lot of time with the fam, so personality fit matters! If you mesh well, work will feel like a breeze.
In a nutshell, look beyond the paycheck and consider these factors – they’ll make your nanny journey a whole lot more fulfilling! Happy nannying!
