A little bit about us

I am looking for a long term, part-time sitter for my 10 yo daughter about 1/3x a week at our house in Newark (West Ward by the boarders of East Orange & Irvington).

My daughter has ADHD & requires a sitter who can enforce boundaries & calm her during tantrums. The job is straightforward; keeping her entertained & alive, giving basic meals, keeping her on schedule for shower & bed. No housework required, just helping to put back toys played with and washing dishes used. We have a large boxer mix who is annoying, but very sweet. Our yard is fenced in, so you can just let him out at his request & throw some food in his bowl at mealtime (I only mention it in case dogs are a no-no for you, not because it is a big part of the job). I work in sports, so my hours are irregular & include mostly late nights and weekends. My daughter can require a little extra patience sometimes, but she has a great heart & is a lot of fun, I want to find someone who can work w/ her & not see her as a bad kid, but one who just needs extra love & care at times. Car needed for school/camp/basketball practice/game pickup and drop off. I can pay $15 an hour.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Newark, NJ

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 Newark. 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 Newark, NJ

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.
