We have followed up and asked her a few questions:
Why do you like working as a nanny?
I am a mother myself. I love children. I love babies. Children are like sponges. They learn new things every day and learn it all very quickly. I am happy to teach them and see them grow smart and strong. We go to the library, to the park and playgrounds a lot. We have fun but we learn at the same time as well. Being a nanny is a very important job, since you make positive impact in the life of a young soul.
You have been working as a nanny for the family in Arlington Heights, IL 60005 for 6 years now. What do you like about this family?
This is such a very lovely family. They are very organized (just like me). Parents and I work as a team.
Children are well raised and respectful. If parents tell them something they know they have to listen to them. If I tell them something children respect me as well and follow my guidance the same way. Parents and I honor each other’s words. Parents respect me and appreciate my work. I have been working for this family as a part-time nanny for 6 years now and I am looking forward to many more years to come.
What has been your experience working with MoniCare Nannies agency?
The response from the agency was so fast! MoniCare called me the next day and offered me a part-time nanny job. MoniCare is an incredibly professional agency. When I call them with any question I always get a clear answer. I am very happy I was represented by such a reputable nanny agency.
