A little bit about us

Hello! We are the DelMedico family (Peter, Katie, and our 14-month-old son, Frankie). We are also excitingly expecting baby boy #2 in September 2026! We are looking for a reliable, loving, and energetic part-time nanny to join our family team.

The Schedule & Timeline
Current Needs: 1–2 days per week from now until September.

Days & Hours: Thursdays and Fridays. Full days are 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM (we are open to one of these being a half-day if preferred).

Future Potential: We may be open to expanding this to 2–3 days a week starting in September once the newborn arrives.

Responsibilities & Daily Routine.
Your primary focus will be keeping Frankie safe, engaged, and happy! Duties include:

- Active playtime, reading, and developmental engagement.

-Preparing meals/snacks and feeding.

- Diaper changes and tracking nap schedules (he still takes 2 great naps a day!).

- Taking him on outdoor stroller walks.

Our Home & Environment:
We live in a beautiful, quiet, and shaded neighborhood in Fairlawn Heights with excellent, private streets for long stroller walks. Our house is spacious with plenty of dedicated indoor play areas, including a large, furnished basement.

Dad works from home (most days) in a dedicated upstairs office, and Mom will be using these days to run errands, exercise, and prepare for the new baby. We also have a 4-year-old Mini-Aussie Doodle (30 lbs). He is hypoallergenic, incredibly friendly, and loves Frankie. He doesn't require walks as we have an electric fence, but you must be comfortable with a dog in the home!

Ideal Candidate:
Experienced with toddlers (and ideally comfortable with newborns for future growth).

Warm, dependable, and proactive.

CPR/First Aid certified (preferred).

Must love dogs!

If you think you'd be a great fit for our growing family, we would love to hear from you!

A little bit about us

We are looking for a part time nanny for our two girls starting at the end of the summer. My husband and I are both in health care, and our schedules change weekly. We need help during the week days. Some days are 7a-6p but others are much shorter, such as 2-6p. Although the schedule changes weekly, we know our schedule months in advance for planning purposes. We are willing to pay guaranteed hours for the right candidate. In addition, we are willing to coordinate schedules with another family as we realize we can only offer a part time position. We need someone dependable and trust worthy with reliable transportation. We expect the right candidate to be comfortable working with multiple children and able to engage in active play with our toddler who loves to be outside. We do have a medium sized dog who is very friendly. We live in a very quiet, safe neighborhood with a fenced in yard. Responsibilities are primarily child care but we do expect our nanny to clean up after themselves, do the kids’ dishes from the day and straighten up after playing or activities. CPR certification highly encouraged. We would prefer someone who can stay with our family long term

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Akron, OH

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 Akron. 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.
