A little bit about us…

We are currently looking for someone to mainly care for our 4.5 month old baby on Fridays at our home, but also pick up our older boys from school every other Friday from school in Tacoma. We would like this person to be punctual, reliable, communicative, patient, and flexible regarding schedules. They are also comfortable with dogs and are able to let the dogs out in the backyard to do their business and have some outside time. I work from home every other week so I will be present on Fridays but will definitely still need the help.

We eventually will need a nanny on more than just Fridays and it would be nice if the person we’re looking for now would be available to provide care on more days. We have a wedding in May in Woodland and would need a nanny to travel with us for that weekend and provide care for our, by then, almost-one-year-old. Overnight stays at a hotel will be provided.

Please reach out for more details or if you have questions.

I'm an assistant manager at dollar tree. I only make 17.50/hrs so I would need someone that would accept dshs. I have the sweetest 8 yr old girl. Her name is Emma and she gives the best hugs. She's a pretty happy, loving, sweet, silly kid. She loves helping except when she's tired. She loves animals, arts and crafts, she likes reading or being read to, she's a pretty easy kiddo. She loves music and dancing and getting her makeup done.
My hours are sporadic. Like this weekend I have Thurs and Friday off, next week, I have 4 days off, including the weekend. She may need to be picked up/dropped off depending on the day. She's literally my broke little best friend. She's very polite and may need help with food preparation. She knows how to make pb&,j sandwiches and get herself a bowl of cereal

Hello I am a Transit Operator and my schedule varies so I need someone that will be able to get my youngest two up and ready for the day. My daughter is 7 and she goes to school on JBLM as well as my baby boy who is 3. Their centers are across the street from one another and they can go as early as 0600. So you must have base access.

Looking for a nanny share for childcare in our South Tacoma home, full time Mon-Friday 7 AM-5 PM.

A little bit about us…

The Baylor family is looking for a dedicated, reliable, and enthusiastic nanny to assist with two fantastic children, a six-year-old girl entering first grade, and a five-year-old boy getting ready to kick off his Kindergarten year. Our daughter is a fan of arts and crafts, yet she is equally at ease playing sports and getting dirty. On the other hand, her younger brother has a vast interest in cars, legos, and superheroes and possesses an incredible imagination.

Both children will be attending the same school, and we've always received positive reports from their previous sitters and care providers. Our household thrives within a structured, yet friendly and active environment where we love spending quality time together.

The nanny’s main tasks will involve picking up the kids from afterschool care, transportation to and from afterschool activities and home, helping them kick off their homework or engage in other activities once at home. You will also be required to prepare snacks and perhaps dinner and, on occasion, assist with bedtimes.

The work hours will ideally comprise a minimum of three days per week, from 4 pm to 7 pm, with the need to extend until 9 pm on several occasions within the month. If desired, we are also flexible enough to adjust this timeframe to offer more hours depending on the need. Such an arrangement would involve additional help with light housecleaning, meal preparation, and possibly running a few errands.

Additional requirements include being proficient in spoken English, possessing a valid driver’s license, owning a car, and having valid certifications in first aid and CPR. Apart from this, experience in meal preparation and light housekeeping will also be necessary.

Overall, we are seeking a caring, passionate individual who loves working with children and can easily fit into our family dynamic. If you believe you fit this description, kindly get in touch. We look forward to meeting you.

We have a beautiful 3 month old son, Hugo, who is going to need 2 day a week nanny care starting end of April when we both go back to work. We are hoping nanny care can take place at our home, at our place of business or at our local recreational spot, as needed. We are needing Monday and Tuesdays from 7:30am-5:30pm with occasional weekend nights (probably one per quarter). We have a cat in the home, we would love for you to feed him dinner and would love if you could clean baby bottles, tidy around the kitchen and occasionally do some washing clothes to help us out.
We have a huge back yard to play in the sun, we encourage walks around our neighborhood, have lots of books to read and fun toys to play with. We would love to meet you!

The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Tacoma. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

  • How do you handle problems that arise behaviorally and emotionally with kids this age?

Beyond answering 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.
