A little bit about us

Clay (4yr old), loves to play with his toy dinosaurs, cars and paw patrol. He is relatively shy until he gets to know you then he love joking and being wild. He is also very intelligent. He loves to learn.

Stella (2yr old), loves babies and all things animals. She is not as shy as her brother but does take a little while to open up.

Days are TBD, but likely 2-3 days a week for 4-8hrs per day.

Nothing specific. Mom and Dad will most likely be around the home as well but working. We believe in outdoor play time as much as it allows and are big on creating learning opportunities when we can. We live on a farm, so outdoor activities and fun are abundant.

A little bit about us

Hello! We are looking for a nanny for our amazing daughter! She is currently almost 10 months old and on the move. She is smart and curious, and likes making messes.

We're hoping to find someone to watch her from our home with typical hours being 8-5 Monday through Friday. However, we're flexible, and can change hours a little bit. We could also work with a part time situation as well. Any help we can get at this point!

Making bottles, breakfast, and lunch for her will be expected. Currently she is not in any activities, but I'm sure she would love to experience story time at the library or other events in the area. We do have a dog in our home. She is a 7 year old, 50 lb rescue. Our pup is a little standoffish at first, and will take some time getting used to you. She is sweet and lazy, but can be protective. Hopefully you are comfortable around dogs and their mannerisms as she adapts to someone new in her home.

We're excited to meet you and hope you are a good fit for our family!

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Columbus, IN

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 Columbus. 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.

  • 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?

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.
