A little bit about us
Looking for a short-term but full-time nanny until mid-March 2022. Open to a share in our home only. We have the set up for two kids (high chairs, sleeping areas, toys, etc). We are flexible working with another family whose needs are PT or FT. Our hours will be 8-5 M-F.
We are both fully vaccinated and mask at work. Anyone we work with should be COVID-19 cautious and vaccinated. We are due with baby #2 in March.
Our daughter is 18 months old. She is smart, silly, curious and independent. She has moments where she is very energetic, but generally calm. We don't have pets.
To give you an idea of us, pre-covid we lived in DC and were always on the go, traveling, wineries, breweries, concerts, hiking, etc. Our families are extremely important to us, which is why we moved to Virginia to be close to my parents. Husband is from New York so pre-covid we drove up once a month.
We are only looking for a short term option, until March 29th.
Thanks!

Hi there!
We are the Taylor family live near Del Ray, Alexandria with our two toddler girls. We look forward to meeting you!
We are looking for a nanny to care for our 4 year old and 2 year old daughters temporarily from Nov 2024 to mid Feb 2025. They love to read, play outside, swim, dance like a ballerina, and pick flowers! The 4 year old is potty trained and attends preschool 4 mornings/week and the 2 year old attends school 2 mornings/week so most of your time would be with the 2 year old.
The schedule is:
Temporary nanny needed in Alexandria from November to February. Zip code: 22302
We are need of a temporary nanny to care for our children from November until our third child is born mid Feb.
Responsibilities and schedule include:
-Care of 4 year old and 2 year old girls. 4 year old attends school 9-12pm Tues-Fri and 2 year old attends school 9-12 on Thurs/Fri.
-Schedule:
M, T, W full time (8:15am-5pm)
Thurs, Fri part time (11:45am - 5pm)
Starting Nov 8 until mid February (excluding the weeks of Thanksgiving and the last two weeks of December for Christmas/New Year's as we will be out of town)
The ideal nanny would naturally love to be with children, take initiative in coming up with fun ideas of things to do (crafts, singing, reading, library trips, going to the playground or on other adventures). In addition, being comfortable in the kitchen is a necessity, as the nanny would be expected to prep healthy lunches and snacks for our daughter, as well as prep occasional simple dinners for the family.
Other tasks may include grocery runs, folding laundry, kitchen cleanup, sweeping/vacuuming, and in general - picking up around the house.
The ideal candidate must have a few years of childcare experience, a genuine love for children, strong references and reliable transportation.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Hello! I am a mama to two sweet little girls ages 5 and 3. They love to play at playgrounds and at home - and we have space to play outside. We are looking for temporary part time care (with many Monday’s off) during the week to help us in the hours my husband and I are both working. You would primarily be watching the 3 year old, as my five year old is in school full time. We would love to see if you are a fit for our family!

Hello, I am looking for a nanny for 20 working days as I have broken my leg. The person will be taking care of our little son Damir he is 3 months old . We may extend the nanny’s care afterwards. The nanny would need to come at 10 a.m for 6 hours and she will be responsible for some housekeeping and grocery as well. The price is negotiable. My preference would lean towards a Russian speaking nanny as I communicate better in Russian.

Hello! We need a temporary babysitter/nanny for backup care from 3/9 - 3/20 on weekdays for our two daughters, a 3 year old and an 11 month old. Hours are 9am - 5pm.
Our 3 year old attends a half-day preschool program M-F, so you will be with our 11 month old from 9-1 pm and then both children from 1-5 pm. Both children still nap and my wife works from home, so she will be upstairs and will nurse our infant before she is fed solids. The oldest is potty trained.
If you enjoy working with young children and have the necessary experience, we’d love to hear from you!

What Are Short-Term Nanny Jobs?
Short-term nanny jobs are temporary positions with a set end date, such as covering a parental leave, a family move, a summer, or a gap between nannies. They suit nannies who like variety, are between jobs, or want to try a family before committing.
Types of Short-Term Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities
Short-term jobs can be full-time or part-time and last from a few weeks to several months. Responsibilities are the same as in an ongoing job, with an emphasis on getting up to speed quickly. Check the dates, the hours, and whether there is a chance of the role being extended.
How to Interview for Short-Term Nanny Jobs
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:
- What are the start and end dates, and could the job be extended?
- Is the schedule full-time or part-time?
- What is the reason for the temporary role?
- How will I be paid, and is there a written agreement?
- What routines and house rules should I know on day one?
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.
