A little bit about me

My name is Szilvia Smyth. I have worked as a nanny in New Canaan for 17 years. I have great local references. I have a ton of experience with kids in all ages. I’m a great cook and although my kids I used to care for are grown still ask me to cook them dinner on rare occasions.
I have a Bachelor degree in teaching, read and write perfectly in English and Hungarian. Understand Spanish and actively learning to speak.
I like to be active and have fun outdoors. Hiking, fishing and beach days, nature walks are my favorite activities.
I would like to care for a baby since I have a teenage son of my own and really miss those years.

Happy to do kids laundry, grocery shopping and dinner prep, changing sheets, organize toys, light house work to make your life easier.

How to Hire a Bilingual Nanny in New Canaan, CT

Nanny Lane helps you find a bilingual nanny in New Canaan, CT who can care for your children in more than one language.

We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.

What Is a Bilingual Nanny?

A bilingual nanny speaks English and at least one other language, such as Spanish, French, Mandarin, or Portuguese, and uses both with the children. Some families want a native speaker to introduce a second language from an early age, and others need a nanny who can communicate with a relative or care for a child who speaks another language at home.

Common Responsibilities of Bilingual Nannies in New Canaan, CT

A bilingual nanny handles the usual childcare tasks, such as meals, play, outings, and routines, while speaking the second language during everyday activities. Many also read stories, sing songs, and play games in that language, so children pick it up naturally rather than from flashcards.

What to Consider Before You Hire

Decide how much of the day you want in the second language and how fluent the nanny needs to be. Ask about their background in the language and any experience helping children learn it. Fluency varies, so it helps to have part of the interview in the language. If you need a specific language, mention it in your job description so nannies can find you.

Bilingual Nanny Interview Questions

Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:

  • Which languages do you speak, and how did you learn them?
  • How would you use the second language with my children during the day?
  • Have you helped children learn or keep up a second language before?
  • Are you comfortable speaking only in that language for part of the day?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?

At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
