A little bit about us

Hi! We are a family in Nashville with 2 wild (but fun) boys. Dean is 4 and Gates is 2! They love being outside, going to the park across the street, watching paw patrol, eating snacks, and playing with cars & magnatiles.
At this point, I am looking for someone that can help me with random house stuff AND occasionally babysit. This would not necessarily be at the same time (unless you are doing a quick load of laundry while watching them or tidying up).
We both work full-time and I occasionally travel for work. I would love if someone could come by maybe 2 days a week for a few hours and do random stuff. This would most likely be- errands (grocery, costco, dry cleaners), tidying up the house (never deep cleaning!), laundry or organizing boys clothes. Anyone that could meal prep would be a HUGE plus. This can be set hours or just whatever works for you that particular week. We would also love someone we trust that can pick up boys up from daycare in an emergency, or watch them on random date nights! My kids LOVE babysitters.
We understand you would not always be available especially last minute, and that’s ok! We are just looking for someone we can text when things get crazy as we don’t have family in town. I was a full time nanny/house manager for multiple families back in the day so I’d like to think I am reasonable with expectations. Note- this is not full-time, so if you need that kind of income I do not think it would be a good fit. I would need maybe 5 hours of work a week and babysitting maybe every 2 weeks or so? I have a ton of friends with kids who also need sitters, so I am happy to pass your info around to them as well. Please message me if you are interested!

A little bit about us

Hi, Normally I work at least 29 hours a week but most of the time I have someone to care for my child. Some days are a bit difficult. My job hours are mainly mornings 7-3 or 8-4. My baby is 8 months and will be 9 months soon. It is extremely hard to leave my baby in the hands of someone else but I have no choice now. My babysitter would only have to care for her 8 hours a day at least twice a week. The responsibilities would be the normal responsibilities such as making sure she eats every 2-3 hours, her diaper should be changed every time before she eats. Another responsibilities include being gentle, patient, extremely loving, keep a close eye on her and allow her to play as much as she wants. She usually naps once between the hours I’m at work. She loves to watch baby Einstein on YouTube. I would require updates and pictures to my phone. I need someone who is able to be at my home 30 minutes before I have to work.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Nashville, TN

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 Nashville. 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 Nashville, TN

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.
