A little bit about us

We are looking for a qualified part-time nanny to provide in-home care to our son on Mondays and Tuesdays every week beginning on Monday, April 7th. He will be about 3.5 months old at that time. Each day will be approximately 10 hours (8 am - 6 pm, or 7:30 am - 5:30 pm) with a little bit of flexibility available on our end depending on the day. Parents both have hybrid work schedules with one commuting to DC and one to Baltimore, so some days the nanny may be home with our son while we are both in the office, and some days one of us may be working from home.

We are looking for someone who can maintain our son’s routine for feeding (formula), naps, and who will actively engage in developmentally-friendly play with him during his awake time. We also have paved walking paths around our neighborhood and a back yard, and would love for him to get time outside each day that weather permits!

We also hope that our nanny will not mind in supporting light housework that relates to the baby, such as baby laundry, loading used bottles in our dishwasher, or changing out the diaper trash can bags.

We live in a single-family home, with no other children or relatives, no pets, and a non-smoking household.

A little bit about us

We have twins who will be 2 in June. Dad works outside the home, Mama works from home. We're looking for someone to work 3 days a week to give Mama a break and let her do work that she can't do with twins underfoot.

No pet care is expected. The only cleaning we need is tidying after play/rinsing dishes after lunch so they can be put in the dishwasher.

We have 2 cats and 1 dog. One cat is VERY friendly and may follow you around if Mama gets boring. The other you may never see. The dog is a service dog and will mostly be hanging out near Mama.

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.
