A little bit about us

Looking for an experienced caregiver who loves kids and who is actively engaged with our kids since we are a screen free family. We have 8 month old twin boys who will be 9 months old when caregiver starts. We are looking for someone open-minded, we are an LGBTQ couple and must love big dogs (pit/cattle dog mix). We hope to find a consistent caregiver who can commit to ~10months, based on a school schedule-- with summer off, two weeks for winter break and other breaks that schools have. One of the parents works a school schedule and hopes to resume full-time caregiving when out of work for school breaks and holidays. We hope the caregiver can start 9am-5pm Monday-Friday. Responsibilities are kid-related-feeding, diapering, play time, reading & learning, walks, occasionally making meals for babies but likely heating up food. We also hope that you are comfortable with letting dog out to use the bathroom and that he be included on walks with the babies if caregiver feels comfortable. We prefer that the caregiver be bilingual in English and Spanish but not required. We are also open to monolingual Spanish speaking caregiver.

What Are Short-Term Nanny Jobs?

Short-term nanny jobs are temporary positions with a set end date, such as covering a parental leave, a family move, a summer, or a gap between nannies. They suit nannies who like variety, are between jobs, or want to try a family before committing.

Types of Short-Term Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities

Short-term jobs can be full-time or part-time and last from a few weeks to several months. Responsibilities are the same as in an ongoing job, with an emphasis on getting up to speed quickly. Check the dates, the hours, and whether there is a chance of the role being extended.

How to Interview for Short-Term Nanny Jobs

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:

  • What are the start and end dates, and could the job be extended?
  • Is the schedule full-time or part-time?
  • What is the reason for the temporary role?
  • How will I be paid, and is there a written agreement?
  • What routines and house rules should I know on day one?

Beyond asking these questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
