A little bit about us
I'm a stay-home mom and need help with my baby. Ideally, I’d like to leave home for 2 hours, or you take her for a walk. The rest of the time, I am at home and studying while you spend time with the baby, or I'm with her while you are prepping some meals.
I adhere to the psychology of bonding and attachment. Studying approaches of Petranovskaya and Gordon Newfield. So it’s good if you share the same philosophy.
There might be many criteria but choosing a nanny is kind of like dating. The important thing is that you like children and have paid experience.

What is an Infant Nanny in Chicago, IL

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 Chicago, IL? 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 nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
