The confinement nanny sitting on the floor while eating became popular on the Internet. Countless mothers liked it and also talked about the 5 nannies I have experienced.

On New Year’s Day, an unexpected video went viral. In the video, the young baby is sleeping alone on the bed. In order to be able to take care of and comfort the baby at any time, the confinement nanny actually sits on the ground beside the bed to eat, and stands up from time to time to take care of the baby.

This video was accidentally discovered by the baby’s mother during surveillance. She felt particularly moved and posted it online. Unexpectedly, it unexpectedly became popular. Countless parents lamented, where did they find this magical nanny? We have so many choices, why can't we find a good nanny?

Regarding nanny Tao Dad, we can also say that he has rich experience. The situation in our family is that Tao Mom goes to work normally and Tao Dad works freelance at home while taking care of the baby. However, if Tao Dad is the only one, the work is basically the same. I couldn't do it anymore, so I made plans early on to ask a nanny to help.

However, what I didn’t expect was that I actually had 5 nannies in 7 months! You can imagine what we went through!

Today I will tell you about my experience in changing nannies and my experience. I hope it can be a reference for parents who have the same needs.

Let me first tell you the story of my previous four nannies. It may be a bit long-winded. If you don’t want to read it, I suggest you scroll to the last paragraph to read my summary of important tips for finding nannies.

The first nanny was found by a housekeeping company. She only had an interview on video and then came directly to work.

You know, Dad Tao is no ordinary father. He is very good at parenting, both theoretically and practically. In order to better take care of Tao, I even studied and took the child care exam. Qualifications of nutritionists and nutritionists.

So within a few days I discovered that this aunt had many problems and was not like a professional nanny. After some insinuations, I figured out that it was an aunt who did housekeeping, hygiene and cooking, and she was just pretending.

After decisively quitting my job, I got another one who was even more outrageous. Not only did she not know how to take care of my baby, but she even made a mess of housework. It was just like a housekeeping company randomly stuffing someone in here. Then we simply went to the housekeeping company to refund the service fee.

We changed to a larger housekeeping company, added an additional 500 yuan to our salary budget, and welcomed a third nanny. This nanny is finally decent, and her skills in all aspects are passable, and we can fully use her. It lasted a month, and then something went wrong.

Because I often take the initiative to take care of Taotao whenever I have time. Unexpectedly, I have good intentions but do bad things, and the nanny becomes more and more lazy.

After cooking a meal and hiding in the kitchen for an hour or two, and washing clothes for half an hour, I found that I personally took care of Taotao for most of the day, as if I just hired a housekeeper. ? But the salary of a housekeeper is not at the same level as that of a nanny!

The key is that I can see that she would rather do housework than accompany Tao Tao. I can't accept this mentality, so I continue to change.

The fourth aunt I got in exchange is the most satisfactory. Her skills are up to standard, she won’t hide and be lazy, and she gets along well with Taotao. I can finally spend more time on my work with peace of mind.

After only one month of working, the nanny asked me for a salary increase of 800 yuan! I really wanted to keep her, but the salary was already considered high in the local area, so I told her that the increase could only be 500. Unexpectedly, she directly said that I would quit the job!

I’m so angry that I’m about to vomit blood. I’ve just finished half of the work, and now she’s kicking me. I won’t be able to find a new nanny for three or two days, and I’ve got a new nanny. It will take a long time for Taotao to adapt. It can be said that my job will be wasted again.

But despite this, I still refused to compromise and started looking for a new nanny. Unexpectedly, three days later, the nanny suddenly said she was willing to work for an extra $500.

I was not clear-headed at the time, and I was extremely happy. Not only did I keep her, but I also promised to give her a salary increase after she worked for half a year.

I never thought at the time that she had caught on to my weakness and was going to take a long-term approach to catch a big fish!

I worked calmly for another two months, and finally something happened. I immediately asked for an extra 1,000 yuan in salary, otherwise I would not do it. I discussed it with her again and again, and I was willing to give her an extra 500 yuan, and she He actually insisted that it must be one thousand!

Now I was completely heartbroken. Even if she wanted to, I couldn’t leave such a nuisance behind, so I resigned from her job. For seven days, I put aside all my work and took care of Tao alone. Tao Bian looked around for a new nanny.

Finally the fifth nanny found a really good nanny and has been taking care of Taotao until now. Only now do I have time to occasionally write articles and chat with you. After experiencing these 5 nannies, I have summarized a lot of experience. I will tell you about it below. If you are looking for a nanny, I recommend that you take a careful look.

1. If possible, be sure to try out the job and work for a day or two before signing the contract. You can't tell the problem just by chatting there. It is common for housekeeping companies to falsify nanny qualifications and information. I have used three agencies, all of which are well-known companies, and they still have this problem.

2. If you can only rely on interviews to select candidates, you must do your homework and ask some very specific questions, such as the steps for making a certain complementary food, how long it takes to change diapers, and how you plan to put people to sleep. What is the temperature of the bath water, etc. It’s not about answering all the questions correctly, but you can tell how much she weighs by looking at her answers.

3. The fees of the housekeeping company are refundable. If you are really not satisfied with the change, you must ask for a refund and then switch to housekeeping.

4. It is not just a way to find a housekeeping company. You can also find the owners of nearby early childhood education centers, baby products stores, baby swimming shops, etc. by asking and chatting with them. And the people they find are highly overlapped with the people you spend a lot of money to find in a housekeeping company! I only found out later

5. Nanny is a little different from other jobs. Changing nannies is extremely costly for parents, so they have strong negotiating capital, especially when your baby has adapted to her dependence. After her. So it is much better to spend more time and energy to choose a good one at the beginning, than to be forced to change halfway through it.

6. Young nannies are generally better than older ones, and they are usually those who have studied seriously. , and the parenting aspect will be more scientific and better communicative. Older nannies will be particularly attached to the traditional way, and have a somewhat elder mentality and are not willing to listen to us, no matter how much we know.

7. The proportion of good nannies among live-in nannies is higher than that of non-live-in nannies. If you want to find a non-live-in nanny, you must choose carefully.

8. Good nannies often work for several years. After one job, they can find the next one quickly, while bad nannies are fired within a month or two and continue to look for another job. Therefore, it is destined that most of the nannies we encounter in the market are relatively poor, so we should be patient in choosing one with good psychological expectations.
