We have a 3 month old little boy named Davis. We are looking for care Mondays and Tuesday from 7:30-4:30 and Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7:30-3:30. We do have a small dog, so we are looking for someone who would be comfortable with pets, but she has her own dog walker each day so no pet care required. All major holidays off. One week off for Thanksgiving, two weeks off at the end of December. Looking for someone to start in November and work through the end of June.

My daughter is 3 years old and loves music! My son is 16 months old and likes stacking blocks.
I’m looking for part-time help on an adhoc basis, for days that my kids have school holidays and if I’m traveling for work. For now, I’m looking for help to look after them at home for March 25-28, for 2-3 hours each day. You will need to help change my son’s diaper and bring my daughter to the loo if she needs it. You might also need to help with mealtime.

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.
