When choosing a nanny, consider the following: Prior work experience and verified references from previous families; Educational background (medical background for newborns; pedagogical/psychological for older children); First-aid knowledge and overall psychological compatibility with your child.

A nanny's main duty is to ensure the child's safety, nutrition, hygiene, outdoor activities, rest, and age-appropriate development. Household chores (general house cleaning or cooking meals for the entire family) are not part of standard nanny duties and require a separate agreement.
