I applied via www.yourchildsnanny.com for a position as a nanny. They have three "branches" a US NANNY, HAWAII AND LDS" and so i put in my application and attached to the application since i'm LDS a letter of recomendation from my homeward bishop. And here is a copy of the email that indicates the reciept of my application. (Hope that makes sense)!
"Thank you for your application. Due to an overwhelming number of applicants, we have changed our screening process. At this time, we are only going to be accepting 10 new nannies into the agency for placement during the summer months. We have preliminarily chosen your application to be one of our new nannies, however, we are requiring our second application to be filled out prior to your phone interview to ensure you are a good fit for our agency. This application is always required, but it’s generally done after the telephone interview.
I have attached our Nanny Packet for your review. Please read the packet carefully and make sure you understand how our process works and that you are interested in working with our agency before filling out the link below.
Other information important to consider before filling out the second application:
· It is unlikely that you will be placed with an LDS family – our families are searching for LDS nannies and are respectful of their lifestyle and beliefs, but few of our families are actually LDS themselves. Our nannies are required to have Sunday off and we will set you up with a ward in your new area.
· If you have never been a nanny before (regardless of your childcare experience) most jobs are starting between $250 - $300 weekly due to recent changes in the economy. Experienced nannies could make significantly more.
· Most of our nannies are placed on the East Coast, New York, Connecticut, New Jersey and Washington D.C. We do get family applicants from everywhere, but you should be willing to relocate to this area.
· You MUST be willing to commit to at least a year. There is a trial period with every family to ensure a good fit, but placements for less than a year are not accepted.
· We WILL conduct a thorough screening of all your references and do a background check complete with a DMV report. If you have any criminal activity or bad references, you will not be accepted into the agency. Minor traffic infractions are allowed and all driving records will be reviewed on a case by case basis.
· If you are LDS, we will require a letter of recommendation from your Bishop. If you are not LDS or cannot provide this letter, you may still be a nanny under our USA branch.
If you feel that you meet all of our requirements and have reviewed the packet in it’s entirety, please complete the second application available by clicking the following link: www.yourchildsnanny.com/forms/index.php/questionnaire. This link could take 30-45 min and cannot be paused in the middle. Please allow yourself adequate time to complete the link. Also remember that spelling and grammar are important, please take the time to do your best (we are not looking for perfection!!). On the skills section of the questionnaire we will ask you to rate yourself on a scale of 0-5. Changing diapers isn’t rocket science, if you can complete a task sufficiently without assistance, more than likely you are a 5, don’t sell yourself short. Remember, if accepted, our families will very carefully read what you have to say. Please put careful thought into your answers.
Thank you for taking the time to apply with us. Our nannies are invaluable to our business and we will carefully take the time to read each and every applicants answers. If you have any questions before filling out the link, you are more than welcome to call me during business hours. We hope to receive your applications by Friday and applicants will be considered on a first come, first serve basis.
