A little bit about us

Looking for a Nanny share starting in Sept/Oct for my 3 month old infant (I'm due in June).

I will need coverage from approx. 8:30 am - 5:00 pm. I work from home full time and my husband works from home part time.

We are open to having someone at our home but also would happily take our baby to someone else's home (this may actually work better since we will be working from home).

No expectations beyond child care at this point.

A little bit about us

I want you to start part time from Oct 1st until Oct 30th tentatively.
Until the baby comes, the main tasks are to bring Vrishank from school, feed him, bathe him, help with light house work etc. So I am thinking it will be best if you can come during the evenings, may be from 5:30-7:30 or from 6-8. I am assuming that this way, you can continue working at CLC in the morning, since I need you mostly in the evenings until the baby comes.

My baby is due in late October, so may be from Nov 1st until April 30th, I would like to hire someone full time, preferably from 8 to 6. I will be home from November to February. So I can help out as much I can. I may need this person to come over and stay 2-3 days in October when I am in the hospital, which is optional.

The primary tasks during this time would be taking care of the baby, feeding , bathing, changing diapers, light house work etc. Taking care of my older son is secondary, only when needed (picking him/dropping him off at daycare, feed him). We have a cleaning service and a person who comes to cook for us every 2 weeks, so I am assuming any work outside of caring for the children will be very minimal.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Columbia, MD

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 Columbia. 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 Columbia, MD

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.
