A little bit about us
Our four kids are 7, 5, 3, and 17 months. Two boys, two girls. Our baby girl has Down syndrome and is an actual angel. Experience with special needs is a bonus, though what matters most is patience and a genuine heart for kids.
My husband and I own a local business, have been married nearly 15 years, and we're ready to make Friday date night a real habit. That's Fridays 3pm to 10pm, with occasional later evenings. You'd lead the kids through play, dinner, and bedtime with confidence, grace, and humor.
We also love help keeping the household running smoothly: switching laundry and dishes, tidying the kitchen, putting away groceries.
We foster an environment of growth/ learning, contribution, and accountability in our family. We preach to our kids "we live a life of abundance" so there's always more to have, to give, to learn (no scarcity mindsets here); we model and expect communication and uplifting others, and remind them we're either winning or learning. Most importantly, that a great attitude is the differentiator in life and makes any situation, no matter how challenging, easier. We know you'll be helping raise our kids, so alignment on parenting is important to us.
(Your) Consistency, cleanliness, and timeliness also matter to us. We're looking for a gentle yet firm leader who has strong emotional regulation and will thrive with all four kiddos in your care. Steadfast but adaptable. Playful & fun but serious when needed.
We're on 5 acres in Rathdrum, about 5 minutes off the Garwood exit, just north of Hayden. Our only "pet" is a moose who visits occasionally to drink from our fountain - four kids keep us plenty busy!
If this sounds like your kind of family, we'd love to hear from you.

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Idaho
If you’re looking for an infant nanny job, you’ve come to the right place! We can help you find an infant care job in your area.

What is an Infant Nanny in Idaho
An infant nanny is a nanny that specializes in caring for newborns. They are skilled in diapering and providing care for any rashes, swaddling, bathing, feeding, and burping. Some infant nannies further specialize in care for premature newborns or multiples.
Preparing for a Nanny Interview for an Infant Care Position
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is an infant nanny job interview. Here is a list of some infant nanny interview questions to prepare for:
- What is your specific experience with this age group?
- Are you Infant CPR/First Aid certified in Idaho? Are you willing to be trained?
- How do you handle a crying baby?
- How often do you usually offer parents updates during the day?
- What do you feed an infant? At 0-3 months? 3-6 months? 6-9 months? 9-12 months?
- How do you set up the infant’s crib for a nap?
- What kind of activities will you plan to engage my baby?
You should be prepared with your references for past nanny jobs, and ideally, past infant jobs. Prior to the infant nanny interview, be sure to think about questions that you might have for the family. This is a great time to ask questions about the responsibilities and compensation for the infant nanny position. To make sure everyone has a shared understanding of the role and responsibilities, we recommend asking for a job offer or a Idaho nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
