A little bit about us

I am a single mom. I typically work around 8 hours a day, five days a week. May have to stay late some nights to finish daily reports but that and traffic getting home shouldn’t take any longer than an hour. My boys are named Ewan and Michael respectively. Just keeping them safe, happy and taken care of until I get back each day is enough and until they get older there is no need for pick ups at any point. If there happens to be an emergency and I need to pull an all nighter than you may have to drop them with me at work but that has yet to be seen.

Hello, we are the Arreola Family, and we're on the lookout for a dependable, dedicated, and compassionate part-time nanny to care for our lovely children; two energetic 3-year-old boys and our sweet 1-year-old girl.

One of the main tasks during your work hours will be daycare drop-offs. Ensuring our children's safety during this process is critical for us, and we would like you to take charge of it. Thursday & Friday we need our nanny to serve prepped meals. We value nutritional food and would highly appreciate someone who can put together healthy servings.
Given the age and energy levels of our kids, we require a nanny who is CPR certified for the job.

We are hoping to find a nanny who can start as soon as possible, and who will soon become a part of our family's routine and adventures. We promise a professional, respectful, and friendly working relationship, and we are are excited to meet you!

A little bit about us

We are looking for a short term nanny, for the right nanny this could become a long term job. Ty's mom is attending a 10 day meditation retreat starting February 8. Nanny position would start February 7 through the 18th or 19th. We live on a boat which we are bringing down to Tacoma area from San Juan Island. We might do some cruising around the area so ability to live-aboard for the duration would be preferred. Private cabin and bathroom.

Ty just turned 2 and is very easy for the most part. He sleeps pretty much right on schedule. He loves goofing and playing with trucks and trains. We are working on helping cleaning up and using words to ask for what we want. He is very exploratory, which is a major reason seeking a local nanny. He loves to run around the deck and can't be outside by himself. It would be nice to visit local parks if the weather is nice.

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.

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.
