A little bit about us

Let me be honest with you—I’m not looking for a babysitter. I’m looking for someone who truly cares. This is a role built on trust, on heart, and on showing up—not just physically, but with presence, with intention, and with love. My son deserves that.

I don’t care about your résumé or where you come from—what matters is how you carry yourself. If you’re going to be part of our world, I need to know you take this seriously. That means being reliable, thoughtful, and committed. It means having the kind of integrity that doesn’t need to be spoken—it’s just there.

This isn’t just a side gig. It’s a real and meaningful role. It requires strength, warmth, patience, and grit. It’s for someone who can handle the hard moments with grace and meet the easy ones with joy.

I value loyalty deeply. I notice effort. If you’ve got the heart, the steadiness, and the experience, I’m listening. But if you’re not all in—please, don’t waste either of our time. I’m building something solid here, and I don’t invite chaos into my home.

You bring your best, and I’ll bring mine. Let’s do this right, together.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Philadelphia, PA

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 Philadelphia. 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.
