A little bit about us
We're looking to hire a nanny for the summer when school is out. Would be June 19th through the end of august.
Our son will be turning 6 in April. We did a co-op preschool for 3 years so I got to see a wide range of kids and I'd say he is very chill relative to most. He's pretty active and likes being outdoors.
We do have an 14 year old 35 lb dog as well. If she could tag along on walks that would be great but not required. We have a doggy door for her so she can come and go as she pleases in the backyard
In terms of hours, we'd be looking to start at between 7-730 AM and finish at 230 PM Monday-Friday.

Temp nanny needed for 3 year old daughter. I work from home in an apartment. Have 1 dog (corgi), great with people—don't need help with pet care.
Needed Wed and Thurs 8am - 1pm week of 1/10/21, may need occasional evening sittings in the future.
I'll most likely move my work setup to my bedroom while you're here (it's currently in the living room), or work from a coffee shop. I am ok with her occasionally checking on me (especially at first as she adjusts), but prefer not to be interrupted.
Meal prep needed (just lunch), will provide meals. Needs special attention to food, quite picky and easily distracted.
Very independent and busy, she needs attention and tends to get distracted easily. Likes to go on walks, park, playgrounds, etc. Indoors likes play doh, LEGOs, coloring, iPad, etc.
If you want to do personal errands and take her, more than welcome—she enjoys car rides and the store. I'll give you access to park your vehicle in the secure parking garage while you're here.
I'll give her a nap after your shift.

I have two cute boys, and run a clothing store. My job gets busy in the spring and fall, so I need coverage on weeks I am traveling, or have a photoshoot. My husband works very early, and cannot help with the mornings when I am gone.
My 5 year old is attending Kindergarten this year, and we live walking distance of the school. We need someone to help get him ready and walk him to school Sept 13-20th. Then drive my 2 year old to school after which is 5 mins from our house. My mother in law is involved and very helpful, but does not drive. I would love to find someone who wants to help out when I have busy weeks like this. I will have future days/weeks, but nothing more set in stone yet. My older son Miggy is so sweet, but definitely needs someone calm and fun to help with his anxiety going to school.
We would love for the person hired to come a few times before the start sept 13th to get comfortable with kids and see our morning routine:) start date is flexible

Looking for in care home for this time span. Wife and I both work and will be splitting the work week at working at home and in the office.

He gets one nap around 11:30 am to 12:30 pm for 2-3 hours. Overall he is pretty easy toddler though I bet most parents say that! But really he is!
Please let us know if you have interest to get the conversation going.
Thanks,

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.
