A little bit about us
Who we are: A family of four looking for our first nanny! We have an infant son who will be 4 months old at the end of May and a daughter who just turned 4.
What we're looking for: part-time care for infant son (4 months old) + occasional care for my 4 year old daughter, as needed (drop-off/ pickup, school closures etc).
When: approx 18 hrs/ week.. but can be flexible. Ideally looking for:
- 3 days/ week (T/ W/ TH)
- 8am-2pm
Start date: immediately through end of summer (however we may need support until November)
Responsibilities:
- full care for my infant son (feeding, napping, changing, taking outside to playroom, park, etc.)
- we may on occasion need help with our 4 year old daughter for drop-off/ pick-up from school/ camp & also on days where her school may be closed due to holiday, etc.
- Nice to have but not a requirement: light housework (laundry/ cleaning) and some cooking/ food prep
Expectations: I will be working from home for most of the days but will try to be out of the apartment as much as possible. Ideally, our nanny will be very active, spending a lot of time outdoors when possible.

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.
