A little bit about us

Looking for both a nanny and a family for a nanny share. We have a 2 months old, and we would like to start a nanny share ideally around February 2021 when he is about 6 months old. Our goal would be five days a week at 40 hours per week Monday - Friday. Alternating houses or being at our house is fine with us. We do have two small very sweet dogs so family and nanny need to be comfortable with pets. Our start time can be flexible if we find the right fit.

Nanny and family would need to be stringent about socially isolating in a pod because of COVID. It is the reason we are not pursuing daycare at this point, so it would be a top priority for us.

A little bit about us

We're looking to hire a nanny for the summer when school is out. Would be June 19th through the end of august.

Our son will be turning 6 in April. We did a co-op preschool for 3 years so I got to see a wide range of kids and I'd say he is very chill relative to most. He's pretty active and likes being outdoors.

We do have an 14 year old 35 lb dog as well. If she could tag along on walks that would be great but not required. We have a doggy door for her so she can come and go as she pleases in the backyard

In terms of hours, we'd be looking to start at between 7-730 AM and finish at 230 PM Monday-Friday.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Seattle, WA

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 Seattle. 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 Seattle, WA

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.
