Entry Level

Competitive pay wage of $18.00 to $20.00 per hour plus an additional $2 per hour for each additional sibling!

Do you love working with kids and making a difference in their lives? We’re looking for reliable, caring, and energetic Respite care nannies to join our team! This is a wonderful opportunity to gain hands-on childcare experience while enjoying a flexible schedule that works for you.

You focus on creating meaningful connections and fun experiences with children. We provide the support of a caring team and amazing opportunities to make a difference.

When you’re a child’s caregiver, you’re not just supervising, you’re inspiring them with the very best of you.

You’ll get to:

  • Be a Role Model – Change a mood with a smile. Bring calm to chaos. Show children how it’s done.

  • Be Playful – You get to be a kid again while enjoying games, crafts, and adventures alongside them.

  • Be Helpful – Many parents are stretched thin balancing work, family, and responsibilities. You’ll help lift that load.

  • Be Adventurous – Rediscover the world through a child’s eyes while encouraging curiosity and joy.

  • Be in Charge – Manage safety, provide structure, and create fulfilling days that make a lasting impact.

  • At least 1 year of childcare experience (special needs experience a plus!)

  • Compassionate, reliable, and safety-focused

  • Minimum age: 18 years old

  • Reliable vehicle + valid driver’s license

  • CPR/First Aid certified (or willing to obtain—we’ll reimburse you!)

  • Available for shifts of at least 4 hours (evenings are often requested more than mornings)

  • Comfortable working with children ages 6 months–12+ years

  • Must be able to lift 35 lbs, be active, and react quickly to ensure child safety

Working Conditions & Requirements:

  • Active, kid-centered environment including play, activities, and clean-up
