I’ve seen a lot of Nanny Resumes lately and I have to tell you. I am not impressed. If your in Cincinnati, please don’t take offense to this but I have to be honest.
Black & White. Boring. Blah. If I didn’t know you, I wouldn’t hire you…
I was updating my resume, and it too felt stagnant. I decided that this “paper presentation” needed to me like me. My good qualities jumping of the page, leaving personality with the people that most likely found me online and have never even heard my voice.
Who Am I? I’m fun, responsible, affectionate, creative…. does my resume give off that persona? Does yours? In the Professional Nanny Industry it’s important to have a balance between ADVENTUROUS and STABLE…….PLAYFUL and SOOTHING……..FLEXIBLE and STRUCTURED. I strive to pull from these workings of the youth and easy going high school kids and yet the grace and knowledge a grandparent.
So if my Resume looks like me, it needs to have that perfect balance.
