How To Set Boundaries With Families, And Why It Makes You A Better Nanny

Charlotte, Charlie, and Milie discuss the importance of boundaries for Nannies within their employment role, and why they matter for both the Nanny and the employer. Boundaries help create a healthy, respectful working relationship and protect the wellbeing of everyone involved.

They explore what happens if a Nanny hasn’t set a specific boundary during the interview or trial period, reassuring listeners that it’s never too late to establish them once in post. The conversation also covers how boundaries may need to change over time if personal circumstances shift, and offers practical hints and tips to help Nannies feel more confident and assertive when communicating those changes.

The episode also looks at how to handle situations where an employer may not be happy with a boundary being set or adjusted, and how to navigate those conversations while staying professional.

Finally, the ladies share advice on negotiating when your boundaries differ from those of a previous Nanny, helping you to set clear expectations from the start.
