I asked bubbly/wendy to come for an initial interview. Her messages to me were very vague and she never answered the questions I had for her about ways she would handle small children etc, nevertheless I still decided to ask to come for an initial interview since she had reached out to me initially and expressed interest in the job I had posted. On the messages and job advent, I had clearly outlined that she would need to provide me with legitimate documents so that I can verify her identity since her username doesn’t match her actual name and also as a precaution for my welfare and my child’s safety. I had also clearly posted on my advert for Nannies NOT to contact me and waste my time if they were reluctant to sharing their information. Despite this, she still reached out and agreed on the messages that she would share them before I let her into my flat. On the day of the interview, I told her I would meet her at reception, check her documents and then I will take her to my flat. Instead of meeting at the reception, she was demanding for my flat number and at this point I didn’t know if this was a dodgy stranger and was going to tell her to leave. After half hour, she turns up at reception with a big scowl on her face and when I greeted her with a smile, she was being very rude and there was no hello, and she was making a scene in front of the receptionist. I asked to see her documents, at this point she was speaking to me really rudely and with a lot of attitude, hence why I would avoid using her. She made it into such a big deal and had a frown on her face, I was so put off by this, I was considering asking her to leave. The interview itself was more to see the way she interacts with my child, but it was just her going on about her career history and there was very little interaction between her and my child. She made some unnecessary comments regarding my child as soon as came into my home. Overall the experience was just terrible and was just embarrassed that I let someone like her into my home and make my scene in front of people that I know.
