Conversational English is enough for talking with us (and one of us is fluent in Spanish).

Benefits: paid federal holidays, 2 weeks paid vacation, DC paid sick leave, DC paid family leave coverage
Health benefits: $350 monthly stipend
Duties: caring for our son (feeding and bottles, naps, diapering, play, walks and outings), plus his laundry and keeping his things tidy. No general housecleaning.
Requirements: at least 5 years of childcare experience, including infants, with references we can call; infant CPR/First Aid; must be authorized to work in the U.S. This is a W-2 position with taxes paid and a written DC work agreement.
To apply, send a short note about your experience with babies and two references to [email hidden].

What is an Infant Nanny in Washington, DC
An infant nanny is a nanny that specializes in caring for newborns. They are skilled in diapering and providing care for any rashes, swaddling, bathing, feeding, and burping. Some infant nannies further specialize in care for premature newborns or multiples.
Preparing for a Nanny Interview for an Infant Care Position
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is an infant nanny job interview. Here is a list of some infant nanny interview questions to prepare for:
- What is your specific experience with this age group?
- Are you Infant CPR/First Aid certified in Washington, DC? Are you willing to be trained?
- How do you handle a crying baby?
- How often do you usually offer parents updates during the day?
- What do you feed an infant? At 0-3 months? 3-6 months? 6-9 months? 9-12 months?
- How do you set up the infant’s crib for a nap?
- What kind of activities will you plan to engage my baby?
You should be prepared with your references for past nanny jobs, and ideally, past infant jobs. Prior to the infant nanny interview, be sure to think about questions that you might have for the family. This is a great time to ask questions about the responsibilities and compensation for the infant nanny position. To make sure everyone has a shared understanding of the role and responsibilities, we recommend asking for a job offer or a nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
