Abstract
Starting from the increase of families hiring nannies, studies revealing the influence of the nanny's conduct on the child's development and the absence in Romania of standardized and valid tests for evaluating nannies’ performance, the objective of this exploratory study was the evaluation of nannies’ abilities to relate with the child, in relation to parental competence dimensions and professional performance criteria. The results of the research (conducted on 65 live-in nannies) proved that the adapted Parental Competence Questionnaire could be used for evaluating nannies’ abilities to relate with the child and that these abilities were predictors for performance.
