A little bit about us
I am looking for a helping hand so I need someone to help me get the kids ready making breakfast lunches from 7-8 and then pickup my son from school across the street at 2:30. My other kids will come back at 5:30. Prepare dinner feed them bathe them and put to sleep around 8:30.
Sometimes after they sleep I have to go do overtime work for a couple of hours occasionally. Overnight but the kids are usually asleep and just to have someone there. My main ask is to keep things tidy in the home during the day and laundry.
I’m looking for someone that is able to connect with the children and set a routine to keep them clean and organized.

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 Calgary. 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.
