A little bit about us

Looking for a mother's helper Monday-Friday 2:00-4:00.
We are an outdoor family with 2 kids; a 16 month old and an almost 3 year old. We try to give our kiddos two choices of what we want them to do, then help them pick if they can't/don't pick. We have done time sitting if needed, and try to narrate what happened/ hoe they are feeling and made the other kid feel in the instance of hitting. We try to give them words to use when they are frustrated for the next time. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats, one of the cats is elderly and would need to be fed every few hours, and the dogs let out as well when the kids are napping. For the kids we would need help with preparing meals, feeding and cleaning up, daily play and clean up after, keeping to their schedule, doing dishes, possibly folding laundry, putting them down for nap and bedtime. There is a possibility more hours if my schedule changes. My husband works form home, so if he's in town, he'd come up to visit the kids randomly during the day. There are lots of things to do outside, and toys to play with inside, our kids also love to read!

A little bit about us

Hello! Im looking for someone who has a lot of patience for hyperactive child. My four year old little girl is full of energy. I have a one year old son who is a delight, but always foiling plans. We really want someone who is willing to clean up after the four year old but not us. I don’t expect you to do dishes or laundry. Just make sure they are taken care of, they eat, they get something to drink, and they don’t harm themselves. My four year old does still need help with potty training. I’m also looking for someone who is willing to negotiate payment wages. I don’t care if you bring homework from school to work on, or if you need to do laundry at our house to make things easier at home. Willing to let you use our house to help your week make it easier. Just due to covid not a lot of options for daycares and everyone is on a wait list.

Hello! My husband and my work schedule is a bit unique. I will be working 2 days a week - Mon through Fri but these days will not be the same each week. My husband has a highly variable work schedule as well. With that, we’d like someone that is available from 6 AM to 8 PM mon-Fri but would rarely need you for all those hours in a given day. We have 3 wonderful boys. Two of whom will be starting at Canterbury this upcoming fall. They love to explore, play and discover the world around them. They’re great with arts & crafts and are overall a happy crew. We would need help with transportation and house work. Other questions let us know!

Looking for someone who can watch my son over night, preferably at my house while he sleeps. I am a third shifter my schedule is 12a to 8/10a but, my kid can be transfered next door in the morning or depending on if we work out a salary for the week I would be interested till I get off work.

Call or text about inquiries and I would like to meet and see if atticus is comfortable with you overall. He is a pretty easy watch understands emotions and engagements well. Hes vocal and loves to do learning activities or just play in his room. A lot of the time you'll probably just be watching Disney or something.

I have a Cane Corso but she is crate trained and wouldn't need any assistance during that time of night besides just letting outside potentially.

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.

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 Fort Wayne. 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.
