When a nanny steps into a new home for the first time, not only are they entering a new place of employment, but they’re also getting their first look at a family’s personal life, with all of its routines, rules, traditions and eccentricities.
And as many professional nannies can attest, there’s a lot you can tell about a family and how the household functions during that first meeting.
The clues are everywhere: from the level of cleanliness throughout the home to what’s hanging on the refrigerator door (not to mention what’s inside the fridge) and what’s playing on the television, each observation helps paint a picture of the family and what lies ahead.
