Unexpected Interview Questions?

[Spixie33]

I never tell parents I have insurance (even though I do). I don't want them to get any ideas in case something happens. I have it there in case someone sues but I would never put the info or the idea out there to a parent. there are all sorts of people looking for a lawsuit.

The only 'out there' question I ever got was whether I read to the children for an hour a day. I kind of laughed and said that some days I am lucky to get through a 10 minute story before the kids lose interest or their attention span and toddlers usually would not sit still that long. The parent was cool about it and laughed too and said they just didn't know what to expect.

One of the most annoying things is when I was interviewing with a couple and the hubby went into the bathroom seemingly to see how 'clean' it is I guess or else to be nosy. not sure what he expected to find.

One of the worst interviews I had was when the parents came with no questions. They said they weren't sure what to ask so I told them about the daycare but since they didn't have any questions or feedback it was kind of awkward and slow convo.

I hope you do great on your interviews Alpha. I hate interviews too. I don't get nervous about the interview but I hate afterwards when I don't hear back and don't know why. It kind of puts me in a slump and makes me over analyze what I said or did wrong and feel like maybe I am not a good provider. I can be very hard on myself that way
