A little bit about us

Next fall we will have a 2 year old, a 4 year old, and a new baby. We need care from 8:30-2:30 and are hoping to find a live-in nanny.
Our four year old will be in school in the mornings and will need to be picked up midday. We are looking for someone who is caring and sweet, playful and interactive, and still firm enough to ensure our children learn to respect each other and their surroundings. (Maybe not the newborn... they'll probably just be spitting up and crying. Super disrespectful.)
Our kids have two cats and two moms-- so we need someone who is not allergic to cats or intolerant. Also, we are both teachers so summers and school vacations are flexible.
