Okay, so the budget issue is resolved, but the real challenge remains. “Who should I leave my child with?” no see.
No matter how much government support I receive, I can't leave my child with someone who is unsuitable or unstable for me. Today, as an editor with 10 years of experience and a parenting veteran, I will share with you my experience and advice on how to avoid failure. ‘"Idol Nanny Interview Tips"’ We would like to inform you.
1. Interviews are simulations, not questions.
Many people “Are you a good person?”, “Do you like children?” Asking the same obvious questions. But everyone has the same answer to these questions. “"yes"”I answer like this. Give a specific situation. Coping skillsYou have to see it.
✅ List of essential questions (take a screenshot!)
- Emergency situation: “My child suddenly has a fever of 39 degrees Celsius. What should I do if I don’t answer the phone?” (Check the detailed manual)
- Disciplinarian: “How do you discipline your child when he or she spits out food or hits a friend?” (Check if this aligns with your parenting style)
- Eating habits/hygiene: “How do you wash your baby’s dishes and bottles?” (Checking hygiene awareness)
- Media exposure: “Do you usually show your smartphone to your child when they cry?” (The most important point!)
2. Have you clearly agreed on the use of CCTV and cell phones?
The most embarrassing issue is CCTV (home cam) 와 Smartphone useThis is it. Don't be afraid of it. ‘'contract'’ You have to make sure at the stage.
- CCTV Installation Notice: If you have a home camera, you must notify us in advance during the interview. (Secret filming is illegal!) A consent form is also required when using government child care services.
- Cell phone while working: “Politely but firmly state a guideline such as, ”Please refrain from personal calls or watching YouTube videos outside of work-related contacts.”.
💡 Editor's Tips:
“Hold the first interview (in person) while your child is present. When the teacher comes in, will they greet your child first, or will they only talk to you? ‘The first minute’ If you look at it, you will find the answer. The one who makes eye contact with the child first is the ‘real” one.”
3. Government Babysitters vs. Private Babysitters
Are you debating whether to use government services or private services (like a babysitter)? The pros and cons are clear.
| division | Government Childcare Service | Private babysitter |
| merit | Guaranteed identity, low cost (subsidy), completion of national qualification training | Customized recruitment available at desired times/conditions, easy to replace |
| disadvantage | Long waiting times, difficulty in assigning a teacher | Expensive, I have to verify my identity myself |
| suggestion | Dual-income couples, childcare helpers, long-term users | When urgently needed, for special purposes such as newborn care |
4. A good teacher doesn't wait.
In the case of government child care services, good teachers are popular and have long waiting lists.
Income standards will be relaxed starting in 2026 (median income 250%) As it is expected that there will be a surge in applicants, it is better to wait for the time when reinstatement or care is needed. At least 1-2 months agoApply in advance and request an interview (preliminary meeting).
If you are still unsure whether you are eligible to apply, please visit the official website right now. ‘User Manual’ Please check and hurry up to register for the waiting list.
Conclusion: The best interview is setting "mom standards."
“Don't assume, "They'll figure it out." Decide what's most important to you (whether it's hygiene, play, or safety) and focus on that. This will make both the teacher and the child happy.
