Hello!
We need help with our little Aksel who is 2 years old. We’d love someone with a bit of flexibility but happy to workout a schedule that suits everyone’s needs.

Aksel requires nap time, lunch, dinner, and snacks throughout the day. We would also appreciate park time and productive and attentive play.

Pick up and drop off may he required but majority of the time will be at our home, we are hoping for 2-3 days per week (including weekends) for about 3-4 hours.

Would be greatful for light cleaning as well.

Baby boy #2 due April 6, will require daycare drop offs for Aksel and some assistance with the new baby.

A little bit about us

Hi, My name is Ranece. Alphonso and I are looking for someone that can work once or twice a week for us. I currently work in the hospital setting and he is a firefighter so we would need someone that could work according to his work schedule. His schedule fluxgates each week, but we do know his schedule in advanced. We have a 6 year old who is doing e-learning until April 19th in which then he would need to be dropped off at school/picked up from school, we have an 8 month old infant who isn't in daycare yet, and I am currently pregnant. So the 6 year will need help with e-learning, homework, and snacks. Light housework as far as cleaning up after the baby and 6 year old is needed. CPR, First Aid Certified, and a clean driving record/own car is also a requirement. Occasionally, we may need a babysitter for date nights.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Chicago, IL

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 Chicago. 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.
