A little bit about us

We are looking for a babysitter for our amazing 3yo daughter, Genevieve. She's very smart, charismatic and funny and always views her time with a sitter as a fun experience. Our current resource is becoming less available and we'd love to form a relationship with someone else who can come take care of Genevieve when we need support. We also have 3 dogs who will just need to be let out into the fenced in back yard once in a while. The main responsibilities we're looking for is to play with and care for Genevieve, prepare dinner and potentially put her to bed. She's a great kid and is excited to meet a new babysitter!

Full-Time Nanny Job: The Brown Family with 1 Child

We are eager to find the right fit for a November start date so below is a brief overview of what we are looking for & standard questions we would have..

Experience, safety credentials, and family alignment to care for our Harlow would be top priority.

1. Safety, Health, and Emergencies
- "Are your CPR and First Aid certifications up to date?"
- "Can you walk me through exactly how you would handle an allergic reaction or medical emergency?"

2. Daily Routine and Activities
- "What are your preferred methods for sleep training or naptime soothing?"
- "What does a typical day with a child my child's age look like?"

4. Logistics and Household Management
- "Are you comfortable with child-related chores like washing bottles, children's laundry, and tidying up play areas?"
- "Do you have a clean driving record, and are you comfortable driving our child if necessary?"
- "How much schedule flexibility do you have if our work day runs late or has a schedule change?"

We are located in Creston, just north of downtown GR (Knapp & Plainfield). Dad works in Holland, I am 100% remotely working from the home. We have one family dog Rizzo (English Springer Spaniel) who is beyond friendly & quite the lazy city dog. Enclosed backyard, comfortable deck, & neighbor strolls are where we choose to spend most of our time right now. Looking for 9-5 or 8-4, slightly flexible start & end times. I am very open to your preferences in working with a WFH parent.

Sleep training will be a new concept for us around this time. Breastfeeding & supplementing with formula currently, and hope to have our feeding journey sorted out in the next month. (Happy to discuss further.)

Do you have any non-negotiables? Would you be okay with a full background check? Preferred contract or style of agreement? Preferred hours, pay, sick/time off? Are you looking for a long term position?

Full-Time Nanny Job: The Quanstrom Family with 3 Children

We are in need of care for 31 hours per week. The ideal candidate would be fun and outgoing, with a creative and gentle approach to childcare. We have three children: 6. 5-, 5-, and 3-years-old. The older two are in school, so the job is primarily for our 3-year-old. You would also be caring for our older two children for about 1. 5 hours per day (when they get home from school). Our children are obsessed with the outdoors, so the majority of the day will be spent outside when the weather allows. Otherwise, they all enjoy reading, crafts, and a variety of toys. Normal kid stuff! A few other notes: - We have 2 hounds, so must like dogs! - We ask that you are a nonsmoker. - We require that you are trained in CPR. - We are pretty firm on the hourly rate. If this job sounds perfect for you, please reach out!
