A little bit about us

Hello!
A little back story of who my family and I are.
My fiancé Tyler and I, have three kids. They are ages 5, 7 , and 9. The youngest is TJ he is so sweet and kind, the sweetest 5 year old ever! Then there is Marlee, she’s the beauty queen, so kind and sweet sometimes alittle fussy. Thirdly there is Averi, she is the most sweetest, amazing kid. She’s very helpful and takes care of the things that need to be taken care of when we aren’t around.

All three of my step kids are at home due to summer break, and their father is home with them during the day. But we need the help of someone Monday, Wednesday and Fridays from 9am-1pm. The duty would be making sure they wake up, have them get ready for the day, they feed themselves breakfast (it is pre done for them), they would need to just have be watched for the most part the 5 year old. He does need help with some basic needs but independent for the most part. Lunch would be needed to be take care of as well but that is as well pre done, and the two know how to cook basic things. Their independent as well and can help you with anything you need if need be. Other than that just make sure they’re woken up, fed and looked after.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Wilmington, DE

Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.

The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.

There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. 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 Wilmington. 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 to Interview for a Nanny Job in Wilmington, DE

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here is a list of some nanny interview questions to prepare for:

  • What do you think children like best about you?
  • What kind of activities will you do with children this age?
  • 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.
