A little bit about us

Seeking a nanny near Elkhart for 2 children. Hoping you can start immediately! Animal lovers please apply (we have a Golden Retriever)! I currently work from home so you would not be alone with the girls yet. Which may give some peace of mind seeing as Veronica is just 2 months old. When I return to work in June my nanny will return (she is going on maternity leave herself) and I will then have 2 nannies working in tandem with one another. I am looking for a long term arrangement but would consider someone who is only available for the summer as well.

Water safety is a huge plus as we have a pool but it is fenced

A little bit about us

My sweet princess Penelope Snyder and her little brother Jaxon Snyder are wonderful kids. They love climbing on play toys inside and outside the home, playing with their pet, going to the park, going to the play place, going to the trampoline park, and so much more!

We have a 3 year old Cane Corso in the home named Sergio. He is great with small children and adults alike, but he does need some work with other dogs. Other pets will not be allowed in the home until I can get him socially-well-acclimated to other non-threatening animals.

I work out of my home, and would need someone to work with my children from 8am-5pm Monday-Friday. My preference is to have you work with my children in our home, at least temporarily to grow confidence, while I work in the basement. I will handle the pet care, and lunches. I need someone to supervise them, change diapers for my one year old, keep them safe, and I will be there for additional help if needed. If you are reliable and have experience taking care of children, I will certainly take that into consideration for figuring out details.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Elkhart, IN

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 Elkhart. 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.

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.
