A little bit about us

hey yall ,
i have three girls. ages 2, 5, and 6. My husband and I are looking for childcare mainly during the nights and sporadically through the month to squeeze in date nights. we have a few dates on our calendar for the month of july we need to fill.
July 29th 5pm to 3am
July 30th 5pm to 3am

as stated before we are looking for a sitter to stay with our family to start doing things as husband and wife again. 😊 and my husband is currently looking for a new job meaning we might switch to a full time position soon as well, if our test days go good.

our entire house is on camera except the bathroom. so you have to be okay with that.

our girls are very easygoing. our oldest is autistic, but she is the "keep to yourself" kind.
your responsibility would include but not limited to : dinner around 7pm , watching them, bedtime around 11pm since it's summer, and then just tidying up a bit before we get home. 😊 all meals are planned out you would just prepare. KEEPING THEM INSIDE. our oldest elopes. all our doors have security latches and alarms. these need to stay on. and i'll sometimes ask for pictures of them as this is our greatest worry.

our oldest and our youngest are still in diapers. our oldest changes herself. & the baby needs changed.

we also have two large dogs. so if you have an allergy it's not a good fit. however, you have no responsibility to the dogs. if you want to kennel them they are kennel trained. we just ask you let them outside once or twice. and they also have their own room leading to the back yard.

these girls are very well behaved. they take themself to bed for bedtime. they ask for snacks when they're hungry. the only reason cleaning up is asked because you're paid 4 hours to nap or chill. ☺️

pay can be discussed together but we typically have always done $230 a night (5pm - 2am) being $25 an hour before bed time and $20 an hour afterwards.

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