When parents are employing a nanny or babysitter before the completion of the interview they will need to obtain a list of references and view other information about the candidate including identity check, Working With Children Checks, First Aid Certificate, and childcare qualifications (if the applicants said they had a qualification).
Many parents find that it is often a good idea to enlist the service of a pre-employment screening company to undertake the necessary checks on their behalf including a National Police Check and Pre-Employment Screening Check.
There will be a fee charged for these services.
There are many companies out there providing these services.
