A little bit about us

Weekend Nanny/House Manager for 7 Year-Old High-Functioning Autistic Girl

We're looking for a career nanny with special needs experience and a genuine love for children to join our family as a Weekend Nanny/House Manager.

Our 7-year-old daughter is sweet, thoughtful, highly intelligent, spunky, and sensitive. We're looking for someone who is engaging, warm, perceptive, patient, gentle and detail oriented.

It's important that you have a background working with high functioning autistic children or special needs children.

During the week, she is busy with school/activities. On the weekends, she likes to be a total homebody. She'd love a playful nanny who enjoys playing make believe, doing hairstyles, baking, Taylor Swift, and just relaxing with a TV show or video game.

This job is ideal for a patient, gentle nanny who also enjoys being a homebody. She does take some medications and being detail-oriented is key overall.

Our daughter will be with us each day between 11-2 and during that time we'd love help with light housework, tidying, organizing etc.

Hours: Saturdays and Sundays 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., ideally available for weekend babysitting and weekend travel occasionally.

Pay: $30-$35/hour depending on experience

Paid sick and personal days

Gas/toll reimbursement

Requirements:
Valid drivers license and vehicle to get to work

Must have relevant experience

Full-Time Nanny Job: The Primack Family with 1 Child

Hello!

My wife and I are looking for a nanny starting next year, January 4th, 2027.

Our daughter, Eve, was born in May so she will be 8 months old when we will start to need childcare services.

I work in Cambridge, MA and will be gone a solid 8 hours a day, possibly more, Monday through Friday. My wife works much longer hours than I do, but she is able to work from home.

As of today, we do not have any specifics in regards to expectations or responsibilities as we are anticipating that our daughter’s needs will change between now and January.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read and consider taking care of our little Eve!
