A little bit about us

I’m looking for someone to pop in occasionally to watch my 4 kids. Just random days or evenings. I do have a small dog.
I have a 8, 5, 1 year old and a 4 month old. Prefer CPR certification, if not I can get you into a class I am a certified instructor and can go over skills with you.
My 1 year old has some special needs that you would need to be able to learn how to maneuver around. He has a colostomy bag that may be required to be emptied or changed. We would make sure everything was in good standing before you came to babysit but sometimes things happen, which could require you to change it.
I will prep for meal time but I would expect you to supervise and clean up whatever mess happened during the meal time. Diaper changes and bottle feeds and then just being interactive as much as possible with my 5, 1, and 5 month old. My 8 year old likes to hide off in her room but she’s a great resource if you’re unsure or need help.
You would need to be comfortable working around cameras as I have cameras in the main areas of my home.

A little bit about us

Hi there - we are Austin and Raegan Doyle. We have three under three - 1 girl and 2 boys. Our daughter, Millie, is the oldest and our boys Fletcher and Wake are Irish twins born 358 days apart. Wild, we know! We are looking for help in the morning 3 days/week while I (Raegan) work from home. Schedule is extremely flexible so would be great for a college student! Hours would likely be 8-11/12ish this could be extended with the right fit. Must be okay with pets (dogs and cats) and have reliable transportation. No driving is required aside from commute to and from our home. Ideally we would like someone who loves our family and would enjoy joining on weekend outings occasionally (Dad works Saturdays so Mom is usually solo for outings). There are also opportunities for date night sitting as well. We are extremely particular and I (Raegan) worked as a professional Nanny and Home Manager for many years so our expectations are that we hire someone who is responsible, attentive and able to juggle multiple children at one time. We require an interview, background check and drug screen (this does not include legalized drugs). It will also be part of our contract that no photo or video should be shared of our children.

A little bit about us

The job would include lots of house help while the kids are in school/daycare. That would be from around 11am to 3:30 pm.
After 3:30pm we will need help with afternoon pick-up and activities for the kids. The evening help would also include help getting bathtime and dinner started. That would end around 7pm.
The house help would include things like cleaning, laundry, changing linens, groceries and meal prep (would vary by day). We also have a yorkie pup who will need to be walked. We would also rely on the nanny to be available if the kids have to be home for minor illness, day off of school or snow day, for example.

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.

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.
