DO YOU KNOW HOW TO GIVE DIRECTION LIKE A GOVERNESS?

Actions have consequences. Good behavior is rewarded.
Bad behavior comes with penalties.

—Nanny 911, the book

  1. Do you enjoy the process of teaching and training?
  2. Are you comfortable in a supervisory capacity?
  3. Is organization your strong suit?
  4. Do you remember the rules when others don’t?
  5. Do you like being entrusted with the management of others?

If you said yes to at least three out of five of these questions, you might have a flair for being a task mistress.
