When inviting a nanny to your home, you need to understand exactly what you expect from her. After all, a strange woman who spends a lot of time with a baby has a great influence on him. Although each family has its own educational traditions, we have selected some general rules for domestic staff. They will help avoid conflicts with the nanny if you discuss them at the very beginning of the meeting.
Nanny Memo
To get the assistant to follow the recommendations clearly, formulate your wishes in writing. Take a scrapbook sheet and divide it into two columns. In the first, write down her immediate responsibilities, and in the second - what is unacceptable in communicating with the child and parents. Familiarize the future employee with the powers and restrictions in advance. But remember: the conversation should be a dialogue, not a boring lecture. Discuss all the issues, even the most insignificant at first glance. Listen to possible objections and try to come to a common denominator.
What do we have to do?
- Children need fresh air, so take your child for a walk every day, even in winter. Walk in strictly specified places, walk along pre-agreed routes. Take his hand when crossing the road.
- If the baby sleeps while walking, just sit on the bench with the stroller next to you. When he wakes up, talk about the world around him - dogs, birds, cars. Older children need to move, climb ladders, slide down hills.
- Spend a free minute on developing exercises and toys, excluding watching television programs and, especially, computer games from the educational process.
- Stop using cigarettes. If it doesn't work out, wear clothes that don't smell like tobacco when meeting with children.
- Try hot food before feeding your baby. After checking with your parents about permitted and prohibited foods, strictly follow the children's diet. Avoid buying sweets and ice cream.
- By personal example, instill in pupils a love of good manners, order and accuracy. Track cleanliness of hands (yours and children), shoes, clothes, stroller, bike.
- Criticize only the actions, not the child himself. Be patient, consistent, and confident in dealing with him. Limit only those actions that are dangerous to his health, along the way explaining the reason for the danger.
- Remember where the first aid kit is located so that you can provide emergency assistance to your child. If he is sick, then call the doctor and contact the parents.
- Open doors to people you know, and best of all - only to mom, dad, grandparents. Stay connected: answer phone calls, call yourself in case of an emergency.
- Speak in a normal language that the child understands, avoiding lisping, invented, rude and slang words. Call him by his name, not a household nickname.
What cannot be done?
[sc: rsa]
- Do not shout at children, even if they are capricious. Want to be heard? Walk up to the child, lower yourself to eye level, smile and draw attention to yourself.
- Never punish physically - spanking, slapping, and slaps in the face are excluded. Clarify what disciplinary action is taken in the family.
- Do not share details of the personal life of employers, do not discuss their level of well-being, do not give advice or assessments of their behavior. Do not invite your friends and relatives to the apartment.
- Do not solve your problems during working hours: do not go shopping while walking, do not talk on a cell phone for a long time. Or talk honestly with your "boss" if you need a little time to do something.
- Do not use negative epithets in relation to household members. Even veiled: “Granny does not feed, she became transparent from hunger. I'll feed you myself ", "Again my sister offended, let me caress you", "We had such great fun, but Mom came and ruined everything.".
- Keep children away from the stove and electrical appliances in the kitchen. Be sure to place your pans and pots on the far burner. Do not prepare food while holding your baby.
- Do not promote your political or religious views (about God and God's punishment) - do not forget the saying about someone else's monastery. Don't talk to preschoolers about death and sex. Don't tell a girl that men prefer beautiful women.
- Do not take the initiative in using early development techniques and the latest hardening or massage systems. Follow the specified procedures, approved games and activities.
- Do not force the person to share toys in the sandbox. He can manage his own things on his own, just invite him to play with other kids together.
So, a nanny has a lot to do with how your child grows up. Encourage her to follow the rules described above, adding to the list those that apply to your household. Brainstorm once a month to discuss any childcare or educational issues. Make changes as necessary and establish new principles accordingly.
