A little bit about us

We're looking for an experienced, silly, reliable, organized, nurturing and snuggly nanny for our wonderful children. During the school year, time will be spent with our smiley 16m old. Our 4yr and 6yr olds will be in elementary school full time and just need to be picked up and given a snack. All 3 kids will be home together in the summer for additional $.
One parent works from home, but we really need someone with the experience and skillset to manage things on their own.
Our ideal fit is someone who is confident in their ability to manage sibling rivalry, doesn't require much training on toddler meals, is good at setting gentle but firm boundaries and enjoys facilitating age appropriate crafts and activities to keep the kids stimulated and regulated. Must be excellent at calming babies who miss mom and getting them down for naps :)

2 small dogs need potty breaks in the fenced in yard. Light housekeeping (vacuuming, kid laundry & daily mess clean up) required.

Hours are M-W 8-3 and occasional Thursday hours if available. Some flexibility would be helpful. 2 weeks paid PTO, 3 sick days. $20-$22/hr, $25 for all 3 kids together.

Must be able to come in any weather, be willing to care for sick kids and able to commit to at least 1 full year. Knowledge of gentle parenting practices a must. We would love our nanny to join us in parenting from Dr. Becky's approach using the Good Inside book as a guide.

Must have a valid license in good standing and transport kiddos in my SUV. We have passes to everything and would love for you to go on amazing adventures!

This job post is straight to the point but I promise we are pretty laid back in real life. We love our nannies and want someone who will become a part of our family :)

Please send a message with start/end availability, professional toddler experience.

Hi! I'm looking for a silly and caring nanny for my two boys. We need care starting on September 1st, from 11:30 am - 5 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.

Responsibilities would include picking up my younger son from preschool (3 minute walk from the house), occasionally picking up my older son from kindergarten (5 minute walk) and some light housekeeping.

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

Hello,

Me and my husband are relocating to Portland, Maine and looking for a full-time nanny for 8 hours a day 3-4 days a week (could possibly be 5 days) as we are both nurses. My son is 3 and has no special requirements or needs. Just to be loved and cared for! We will be relocating to a house with plenty of yard space for him to play outside too. He requires just light meal prep (chicken nuggets and fruit is his whole diet basically). Occasional light house work may be needed but no pressure in this area. He is currently working on potty training and prep for pre-school. We are looking for a kind, engaging nanny who will be willing to do fun activities such as painting and other stimulating pre-school activities with our son while we are at work.
