Today, many young mothers, among whom are my acquaintances, hire a nanny for their child. However, many people believe that a good mother should take care of raising her children herself. After all, a child needs a maternal warmth and love to grow up happy. Indeed, even a good nanny will not be able to replace her mother with a child, but she can help her with advice and take on some of the work. You just need to choose the right nanny for your baby .
In former times, almost all representatives of the Russian intelligentsia had tutors or bonnies. Then this tradition disappeared, but recently it began to revive again, because there are not enough nurseries and kindergartens, and not everyone has a grandmother. In addition, grandmothers often simply "sit" with their grandchildren, and do not engage in their development. And grandmothers very often insist on the old methods of feeding, raising, developing babies that are already outdated today. Therefore, I’d better find a nanny who has experience in caring for children and owns modern methods of education.
Today, there are many games and physical exercises that are designed for children of different ages. A competent and experienced nanny owns this information and knows all the features of the development of young children. Her responsibilities include feeding, bathing, walking, as well as cleaning the baby’s room, doing laundry and first aid. A qualified nanny will be able to give the child a massage when his tummy aches. In a word, this is an indispensable assistant for those mothers who can not cope with all things on their own. In order not to bring myself to a nervous breakdown, I will also find a nanny if I can’t cope with raising my children on my own.
Today at public transport stops and in newspapers there are a lot of private advertisements that offer low-cost babysitting services . But how to entrust the most precious thing - a child, to a stranger? After all, there were cases when, due to the negligence of the nanny, the child had trouble, or she turned out to be a gunner or an ordinary swindler, who, at the first opportunity, was hiding, “seizing the good”. Therefore, the choice of a specialist must be approached very carefully. But in order to get to know a person well, it is not enough to check his passport, you must also have knowledge in the field of psychology. Therefore, although such services for private announcements are much cheaper, I will turn to the agency for nannies , where the selection of applicants is carried out on a competitive basis.
Agency staff will select several applicants that fit the requirements of the parents, after a conversation with whom the most suitable assistant is selected. If in a few days it turns out that she didn’t fit by any criteria or was simply ill, the agency will soon select another candidate. All applicants are carefully selected, so there are no random people in the agency. In addition, some agencies organize nanny training courses . Demand for such specialists is very large. Looking for a nanny among your friends is also not worth it, because if they do not fit this role, then you can ruin your relationship with them.
