A little bit about us
Our schedule is unconventional. A typical rotation may be 26 hours on, approximately 22 hours off, then 26 hours on, generally Monday through Thursday, with coverage ending by Friday morning. There are no regularly scheduled weekends or holidays. Although shifts are long, there is significant downtime while the children are at school and sleeping. The nanny must remain available and responsible for them throughout the scheduled coverage period, including overnight.
Responsibilities include morning and bedtime routines, school drop-off and pickup, transportation to activities, preparing simple meals and snacks, children's laundry, and keeping their belongings and spaces organized.
The children do not typically have homework, but we want them to spend a small portion of their after-school time doing something productive, educational, creative, or active before recreational screen time. We want a healthy balance of structure, independence, downtime, and fun.
Our children are generally independent but need a little more assistance with toileting and personal hygiene than may be expected for their ages. They may need reminders, help cleaning themselves thoroughly after a bowel movement, or assistance changing and cleaning up after an occasional accident. This should always be handled calmly, discreetly, and without embarrassment or shame while encouraging independence.
Most importantly, we need someone reliable and trustworthy who can confidently manage the children's routine while we are away.

What Are Night Nanny Jobs?
Night nanny jobs are overnight positions caring for children while their parents sleep, often for a newborn. These jobs suit nannies who prefer working nights, have newborn care experience, or want a schedule that leaves the daytime free.
Types of Night Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities
Duties include overnight feeds, diaper changes, soothing, and sleep logs, and for older children, overnight supervision. Some jobs are a few nights a week, and others are full-time for the first months of a baby's life. Check the nights, the shift hours, and whether you are expected to stay awake or can sleep when the child does.
How to Interview for Night Nanny Jobs
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:
- Which nights and hours do you need, and how long will the job last?
- Will I be awake all night, or can I sleep when the baby does?
- Where will I stay, and what is provided?
- How will feeding be handled, breast or bottle?
- How is overnight pay handled, and is there a written agreement?
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.
