A little bit about us
We recently moved to Franklin and are looking for someone who will be with us long-term. I’m a stay-at-home mom, and my husband works long hours and will be traveling back to the West Coast often. We have three kids — ages 9, 3, and 2 — who are fun, kind, and energetic. They love playing games, doing arts and crafts, and we’re hoping to find someone they can build a lasting bond with.
I’m hoping to find someone who can be a true mother’s helper — someone reliable who takes initiative, pitches in where needed (when it comes to the kids), and helps keep the kids schedules running smoothly.
A bit more about our family:
Our oldest is in 3rd grade, loves to read, learn fun facts, and is pretty independent. Our 3-year-old has some sensory sensitivities, and she does best with a caregiver who’s calm, attentive, and comfortable with close, hands-on supervision. Our youngest turned 2 in September and he’s the life of the party. He’s cuddly and loves to eat. We also have two sweet senior dogs at home.
What we need:
• Experience with sensory processing differences or special needs care is a big plus.
• Reliable, dependable, and takes initiative without needing constant direction.
• Patient, attentive, and comfortable with close supervision.
• Reliable transportation + clean driving record.
• Calm under pressure, playful, and genuinely engaged.
• References.
Logistics:
• Start date: ASAP
• Schedule: Flexible. Looking for 3 days/week for 5-6 hours each day or 2 days/week for 8-9 hours each day.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

A little bit about us
Looking for a part time Nanny for the upcoming school season near Franklin. Our daughter is 12 years old with autism and is non-verbal. Looking to have someone start around the first week of August, but we're flexible. It would mostly be weekday afternoons 2:30 to maybe 6:30 or 7:00. There will also be days she is out of school where you'd have a chance for additional hours if you like. You would handle pickups from school, some light meal preparation, and need a great attitude to fit in with our family. Our daughter loves music, swimming, Disney movies and going for walks. Let us know if you have any interest or would like more details.

A little bit about us
Hi! We are looking for a part time nanny for our daughter with epilepsy. She attends school during the day and gets home around 1:45. She has therapy 2 days a week which you would take her to- just drop off and then pick up. Therapy lasts 45 minutes and is less than a mile from our home. She is sweet and so funny! Because of her epilepsy she does have developmental delays and sensory processing issues. She is also still in diapers.
Times/ days can be flexible with potential for more hours on school breaks/ holidays. Pay is negotiable for the right person!
CPR certified is a must and you may have to give her medication and/ or rescue med for a seizure. Mom is a nurse and will teach you! Mom also may be home during part of the time.
Must be comfortable with dogs!
