Seeking Experienced Nanny
Experienced
A bit about us:
We’re a liberal, caring family of 4 who love the outdoors, good food, and connecting with nature. We’re very open-minded and enjoy learning about other cultures, etc. My husband and I are both scientists; we like structure and tend to create a calm, thoughtful environment. We also like to have fun and be silly with our kids! I work from home 2 days a week and would love the chance to soak in a little baby time when I have breaks or at the end of my work day while our nanny helps with the dinner prep. My husband works outside the home. We are practicing respectful parenting, and looking for someone open to learning new things.
Our baby girl is a peaceful infant. She’ll be 6 months old in January. Her idea of a fun afternoon is lying on a picnic blanket in a park, looking up at the trees. She also likes when you read books to her. She responds well to people who are gentle and loving.
Our 6-year-old son will usually be at school followed by an after-school program. He is boisterous, intelligent, and friendly. If you’re able to do date nights 1-2 times a month, you’d be caring for both children.
A bit about you:
You are a collaborative, and nurturing nanny with high emotional intelligence. You’re self-aware and naturally helpful without being asked. If you see something that needs to be done, you take initiative. You are punctual, communicative, and respectful. Babies are your favorite age group, and you are delighted spending your day with an infant, and witnessing precious milestones. You are open to sleep training without the cry-it-out method and aligning with the parents on their decisions about parenting. You love what you do, and you care for children as if they were your own!
Job Duties:
All childcare-related infant tasks such as diaper changing, feeding, putting down for naps, age-appropriate play, following routine and reading baby’s cues with developmental changes, reading to baby, outdoor play, ensuring safety, driving baby to nearby parks, the library, and/or other nature-based outings. On occasion, caring for both children which would include playtime, feeding, bathtime, and bedtime. Household tasks include light tidying, wiping the kitchen countertop, cleaning up after baby’s feedings, organizing baby’s toys and play area, loading/unloading the dishwasher, meal prep for family dinner, and kids’ laundry.
Position Highlights:
Qualifications: 2-5 years of infant experience with 6 months-18 months, some toddler experience, previous nanny experience, childcare experience with at least a couple different infants, infant CPR certification, clean driving record, reliable and safe vehicle for transporting a child, valid Driver’s License, previous experience driving a child, fluent in English, willing to take a drug screen if requested, easy/intermediate meal prep ability (such as chopping vegetables, ability to follow a simple recipe using a crockpot or pressure cooker).
Set yourself apart: You have experience with the parenting principles of RIE, and/or the educational philosophy of Reggio-Emilia. You have 5-10 years of infant/toddler experience, potty training experience, and/or are great at cooking unprocessed meals.
