A little bit about us
While our weeks as a family are quite busy, we love being home with the girls and soaking up these “little” years. When we aren’t traveling, we have pretty standard weekend routines of going to our favorite neighborhood pizza spots, walking to a nearby park or the Y for the pool in the summer, and going to church on Sundays. It's super important for my husband and me to carve out time together each weekend, so we often do our date nights on Saturday evenings.
In general, given my husband's very busy work schedule, I am looking for someone to partner with me in taking care of the girls when they are out of school, when we have date nights or evening events, and when we travel.
The following qualities are very important to us in a nanny:
- Strong values that generally align with our Christian faith
- Flexibility around our schedules, knowing that no week will likely look exactly the same
- Happy to tag-team the girls/be at our house all together or and to go on adventures with one or all of the girls
- A loving mix of firm boundaries and grace with the kids
- Willingness to help occasional long hours and overnights when we have work or personal travel
While our schedule will vary week to week, I'm hoping to find someone to who is open to hours such as this:
- 1 full day each week (likely Friday but may vary)
-1-2 additional weekday afternoons/early evenings each week
-At least 2 Saturday late afternoons/evenings a month for date night
Happy to share more upon request if this type of role is of interest to you! We can guarantee hours for the right candidate who is willing to be flexible with our often changing schedule. Thank yo for considering us!

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Nashville, TN
Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.
The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.
There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Nashville. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here is a list of some nanny interview questions to prepare for:
- What do you think children like best about you?
- What kind of activities will you do with children this age?
- How do you handle problems that arise behaviorally and emotionally with kids this age?
Beyond answering 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.
