A little bit about us

Hello! We are new to the area and seeking an occasional sitter for late afternoons/evenings. Would be for date-night or when one of us is traveling or working late (mom works from home). In some cases, one of us may be home while you are here, and you'd be providing support to get the kids ready for the night time routine.

Our daughters are 2.5 and 5. They love princesses, arts and crafts, dancing, singing, reading, and playing in their playroom.

We do have a 12-year-old dog, Penny. She loves people and attention but also loves to sleep in her older years. The girls can feed her, but they might need prompting to do so around 5-6. She does need to be on a leash to go outside but will try to make sure you don't have to worry about that often.

A little bit about us

We're looking for a very part-time nanny for our baby, just for one morning (Tuesday or Thursday 8am - 1pm, you choose!) and probably Monday from 1pm - 6pm. One or both parents may be working from home or be at our offices, depending on the day/week, but neither parent will be around during the day. We would only be looking for help with baby's housekeeping (dishes, laundry, etc.) and dog care (which would entail letting him out back or taking him on walks if you're already going out).

We guarantee 10 hours per week, per the contract and offer paid sick leave. At least one car with carseat will be available to use, although we drive manual cars. Additional hourly pay for occasional date nights/events is available.

Additional pay per hour for native or fluent German speakers

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Columbia, MD

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 Columbia. 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.

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.
