General Information for Filling out the TSN Nanny Application
You should understand the hiring process before you fill out the application.
TSN gathers information about you so we can present you effectively to families.
The first thing we send to families is your TSN application. We also send your letters of recommendation, notes from our
interviews with your references, photos, and other information that we have available.
Tips to help you sell yourself on the Nanny Application Form
- Use good English, and type carefully. Use a dictionary,
if needed. All employers are impressed with someone who is careful and pays
attention to details.
- Be completely honest! We verify the information you give us. Do not
mislead or give incomplete information.
- TSN only represents non-smoking nannies. If you smoke -- even occasionally
-- we can't help you.
- Describe childcare experience in detail. Indicate babysitting and prior
nanny experience. If some childcare experience has been with relatives, say so.
- Ask your references if they can give you a positive recommendation.
Don't use anyone as a reference who can not recommend you enthusiastically.
However, never ask a reference to misrepresent your background or experience.
- Be flexible in stating expectations. One job may pay more but doesn't have
the extras that another job has. Most nannies say that the most important factor
is finding the right chemistry with families. Being treated with respect can be
even more
important than salary, location, or the kind of car you drive.
- Sell yourself. Be specific in talking about your achievements or qualifications.
Always be positive. Let families know that you can provide the reliable and loving
care they want for their children.

Families will see your application. Sloppy spelling and careless phrasing or
punctuation send the wrong messages to families. Be careful and make your application as
professional as possible.
Fill out the application on the computer and email it back to us
right away. This will enable us
to start processing your application and getting your materials packaged as quickly
as possible.
