A little bit about us

Hi we are looking for a flexible nanny to care for our 6.5 month old son starting in mid June! I work long hours in a hospital and my husband travels for work so we need somebody that is willing to work with our schedules. Most days, the hours would be 8AM-6PM 3-4 times a week. The days would be different each week but scheduled days will be provided at least a month in advance. When my husband travels for work, we would need the nanny to come earlier to the house at around 6AM and work until 6PM. But you would be allowed to leave early/work a shorter day in the same week.

Other things we are looking for in a nanny:
- previous experience with infants and willing to provide references
- has their own transportation
- be fully vaccinated for COVID, flu, TDAP
- must know infant CPR
- fun, caring, and energetic
- willing to take our son to activities like playgroup, library, zoo, playdates, playground, museums, etc
- creative, proactive, and willing to come up with new activities and play ideas
- understands age appropriate play and developmental milestones
- willing to help prepare, cook, and feed solids to our son as we are just beginning this journey
- loves dogs since we have one in the house and possibly walk the dog once a day
- willing to also do light housekeeping such as baby's laundry, clean up after them, wash and sanitize bottles


Competitive pay, generous paid time off, holidays, sick time!


Thanks,
Jennifer

What is an Infant Nanny in Washington, DC

An infant nanny is a nanny that specializes in caring for newborns. They are skilled in diapering and providing care for any rashes, swaddling, bathing, feeding, and burping. Some infant nannies further specialize in care for premature newborns or multiples.

Preparing for a Nanny Interview for an Infant Care Position

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is an infant nanny job interview. Here is a list of some infant nanny interview questions to prepare for:

  • What is your specific experience with this age group?
  • Are you Infant CPR/First Aid certified in Washington, DC? Are you willing to be trained?
  • How do you handle a crying baby?
  • How often do you usually offer parents updates during the day?
  • What do you feed an infant? At 0-3 months? 3-6 months? 6-9 months? 9-12 months?
  • How do you set up the infant’s crib for a nap?
  • What kind of activities will you plan to engage my baby?

You should be prepared with your references for past nanny jobs, and ideally, past infant jobs. Prior to the infant nanny interview, be sure to think about questions that you might have for the family. This is a great time to ask questions about the responsibilities and compensation for the infant nanny position. To make sure everyone has a shared understanding of the role and responsibilities, we recommend asking for a job offer or a nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
