A little bit about us
Our daughter will be 2 in October and we live in downtown Brooklyn. We’ve been with our nanny since January 2022 and she’s amazing. Our daughter adores her and joyfully says goodbye to me each morning so she can start her “adventures” with Miss Shawana.
I work from home full-time while my husband is a teacher in Kensington aka out of the house every day. We also have a very sweet cockapoo named Buddy.
Very flexible on share hosting arrangements. Up to now we have been fully at the other family’s home!

A little bit about us
My daughter loves storybooks, songs, and someone who is conversational and kind. I work from home, so I'm a part of taking care of my baby girl whenever I take breaks from work. We step outside occasionally for walks to the park. The work includes light housekeeping and meal-prep. I have a 6-year-old Golden Lab dog who is just like my baby. Want to make sure whoever I hire is comfortable around dogs.

What is an Infant Nanny in Brooklyn, NY
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 Brooklyn, NY? 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.
