Becoming an Au Pair

Somewhere between Mary Poppins and the jet-set life of an au-pair to the stars lies the life of a real-life nanny. Chandra Bloodgood, an experienced live-in nanny, provides an enthusiastic and honest look at the pros and cons of this particular kind of work. For many men and women, working as a live-in nanny has a lot of appeal. Not only does it offer an opportunity to be a part of another family, but it also can be a terrific way to see another part of the country and be part of life-changing and rewarding events.

Ms. Bloodgood really does start at the beginning, helping readers determine whether or not they are suited to work with children, and covering such sensitive topics as personal space, temper, nanny-cams, non-child-related chores and significant others. Becoming a Nanny is a hands-on approach and includes a number of worksheets to help with resume writing and preparing for an interview, not to mention an extensive listing of websites with great educational activities for children and indispensable support sites for nannies.
