The Van Essen Family - Hiring in Grand Rapids

Full-Time Nanny Job: The Brown Family with 1 Child

We are eager to find the right fit for a November start date so below is a brief overview of what we are looking for & standard questions we would have..

Experience, safety credentials, and family alignment to care for our Harlow (23 days fresh today!) would be top priority.

1. Safety, Health, and Emergencies
- "Are your CPR and First Aid certifications up to date?"
- "Can you walk me through exactly how you would handle an allergic reaction or medical emergency?"

2. Daily Routine and Activities
- "What are your preferred methods for sleep training or naptime soothing?"
- "What does a typical day with a child my child's age look like?"

4. Logistics and Household Management
- "Are you comfortable with child-related chores like washing bottles, children's laundry, and tidying up play areas?"
- "Do you have a clean driving record, and are you comfortable driving our child if necessary?"
- "How much schedule flexibility do you have if our work day runs late or has a schedule change?"

We are located in Creston, just north of downtown GR (Knapp & Plainfield). Dad works in Holland, I am 100% remotely working from the home. We have one family dog Rizzo (English Springer Spaniel) who is beyond friendly & quite the lazy city dog. Enclosed backyard, comfortable deck, & neighbor strolls are where we choose to spend most of our time right now. Looking for 9-5 or 8-4, slightly flexible start & end times. I am very open to your preferences in working with a WFH parent.

Sleep training will be a new concept for us around this time. Breastfeeding & supplementing with formula currently, and hope to have our feeding journey sorted out in the next month. (Happy to discuss further.)

Do you have any non-negotiables? Would you be okay with a full background check? Preferred contract or style of agreement? Preferred hours, pay, sick/time off? Are you looking for a long term position?
