Flexibility Is Key To Being A Successful Temporary Nanny
If you want to be a temporary nanny or if you're thinking about applying for a temporary nanny job, it's important for you to have a high degree of flexibility. No, that doesn't mean you have to be able to do the splits! It means that if you register your profile with online temporary nanny services, you have to be available when you say you're going to be available, at least as much as possible.
Flexibility also comes in handy in other ways. When a full time nanny or part time nanny register their profiles for jobs, they might pick and choose the age groups of the children they want to work with, where they want to work, and the hours they want to work. As a temporary nanny, you won't really get that luxury. The nature of the position is to be called to action at a moment's notice, and it's a really important service to be able to offer families.
To make the most of your temporary nanny job, be as accommodating as you can be (within reason). Gradually, as you make your way up to more permanent positions, you'll have an opportunity to be a little more choosy. Until then, be ready for just about anything.
