A little bit about us
Our ideal schedule is Monday–Friday during school/daytime hours, generally between 9 AM–3:30 PM, but hours will vary. Some days may only be 1–3 hours, while others may be closer to a full day. Thursdays are typically my busiest workday and the day I’m most likely to need consistent, longer coverage. Because we aren’t requiring the same set hours every week, we’re happy to offer flexibility in return.
Infant care is a major part of the position. On days my husband is away and I’m working, you may spend most of your time caring for our son—feeding, changing, playing, naps, etc. Other days, childcare may be minimal and we’ll need more help around the house.
Household responsibilities may include laundry, dishes, tidying play/common areas, organizing, keeping track of household/baby supplies, unpacking deliveries, errands/returns, grocery runs and other projects that help keep our home organized and functional. We have a weekly cleaner, so no deep cleaning.
Initiative is very important to us. Once you learn our household, we’d love someone who notices what needs to be done and jumps in without needing a daily task list.
We’re looking for someone warm, trustworthy, flexible and comfortable with variety who would like to become a long-term part of our family’s support system. We may also be open to the right person bringing their own child.
If this sounds like a position you'd enjoy and be great at, we'd love to hear from you! Thank you!

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Mississippi
If you’re looking for an infant nanny job, you’ve come to the right place! We can help you find an infant care job in your area. Start by telling families about yourself in your profile, and then chat with families to find the right fit. When you think you’ve found the right match, you can turn the discussion towards compensation and responsibilities.
What is an Infant Nanny in Mississippi
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 Mississippi? 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 Mississippi nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
