A is for a co-operative Attitude. Maintaining good communication between you and your employer is paramount to a successful working relationship.
Dialogue is the best way to not only build trust, but also to nip worries and concerns in the bud before they blow up into serious problems.
B is for the Budget. Every spring, the Government announces any changes to be made to tax and National Insurance rates and personal tax allowances for the next tax year, and introduces other wage-related policies. Look out for this, as it may affect your personal finances.
C is for CRB check. Most nanny agencies are now asking nannies to be checked by the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) before they agree to place them. The process, which is known as disclosure, takes approximately four to six weeks to complete. Although a CRB check is not, as yet, a legal requirement, it is considered best practice, as it will show you in a professional light and reassure your employer.
