A little bit about us

I have a 5 year old daughter who is very helpful with her baby brother. She keeps him very entertained. She will be starting kindergarten this year so she will most likely ride the bus since the school is very close by. My 10 month old is quite easy and loves snacks. I have a serving job and work mornings. The schedule is not consistent day by day but the start and off times are always the same. My schedule comes out every Friday. I leave for work at 9:45am and I am always home by 6pm or earlier. I live with my mother who is a lot of the times home before me so in those cases she will be taking over from there. My rules are quite lenient as my daughter is quite well behaved. Just things like clean up your toys when they are not being played with and no tv while eating (she tends to space out on tv instead of eat). I try for not a lot of screen time but a movie in the morning or afternoon is okay. There are no allergies for either child. My son eats any soft foods and daughter eats a typical childs diet and loves fruit. I have two cats that are very nice and need zero care.

Hi my name is Carolanne and my daughter is River Rose. She will be 2 in January. She currently attends Growing kids in Chesterton across from the High School. I would need her to be picked up between 5:30 and 6pm which is when they close. My mother is no longer willing to watch her, even though I live with my parents. She also does not want you to come to the house to watch her either. “ She needs her space, and time to relax.” 😒. My daughter usually goes to bed around 7-7:30ish, and is usually starving by the time she gets picked up. More than happy to provide her meals. Now with my schedule my boss is willing to make it where I have set evenings there maybe sometimes where he has to switch it up. The set days though I can make based of you and what’s best for you. I am an assistant manager at Walgreens in Chesterton so the evening shifts I close the store. 98% of the time I’m out of there by [phone number hidden] latest. There are also days where I may have to work a mid shift and I would get off at 7:30. I do have an extra car seat too. Also depending on my moms moods or if she’s made plans I would need Sundays too. A full 8hr shift. Now if I work mornings I don’t have to take a lunch and I can be out of there by 3:30, or evening shift would be 2-10:30. If interested please let me know and see if we can work something out. I’m desperate!!!!

A little bit about us

Hey! We have a sweet little girl who is going to be 1 in March, 2023. I'm currently a stay at home mom but would love to have a permanent sitter who could help us as needed (probably, a couple times a month). It potentially might grow into more hours when I come back to work.

We are looking for somebody who could come to our house, who's vaccinated and experienced with young babies. We're open to take our daughter to a nanny's place if it's not too far away from our place too.

My son is a fun loving 5 year old who is actively in kindergarten during the day at a bilingual program (English/Spanish). He loves Legos, painting, and talking about space.
I am looking for someone to watch him when I go out of town for work (sometimes up to 5 days at a time), when I go to dinners (usually 4 hours), or on date nights.
I have at least 2 date nights or dinners per month, and travel at least once per month. I would like to keep everything in my home - so he stays on our schedule and routine (very important for him).
Thanks!!

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Valparaiso, 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 Valparaiso. 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.

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.
