My care for children started when my mom and her friends always would say " Phyllis kids just love you, you"are a natural".

Doors continued to open, from getting babysitting gigs through the school to people requesting my services baste off of former employers.

I was a former student athlete in college where I played soccer and ran track, so I am very active and love playing any kind of sports with the kids I take care of!

When I graduated college I Ianded a job as a preschool teacher last year for several months. I met a family through my class that hired me to be a after school nanny.soon on after I also became her weekend nanny as well.

What Is a House Manager/Nanny?
A House Manager/Nanny combines childcare with household management or family assistant duties. Besides caring for the children, they help run the household, from organizing schedules and errands to supervising other help, which suits busy families who want one person looking after the home and the children.

Duties often include meal planning and grocery shopping, laundry, organizing the home, running errands, scheduling appointments and activities, and coordinating with other household staff, on top of childcare. The balance between childcare and household tasks varies from one family to another.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Be specific about how the time is split between childcare and household work, and put it in a job description. Roles that combine duties may be paid at a higher rate, and they call for more experience. Make sure expectations about housekeeping, such as deep cleaning, are clear from the start.
House Manager/Nanny Interview Questions

- Have you worked as a nanny and as a household manager or family assistant?
- What household tasks are you comfortable managing?
- How do you organize schedules, errands, and appointments?
- Have you supervised other staff, such as cleaners or contractors?

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.
