The activities are all in the surrounding area, but having a car and a valid driver's license is essential.

We are looking for a nanny to care for our adorable and easy 4-month-old son, M-F, 9-5 pm while my husband and I work from home. At this time, we believe we need help for about 3-4 months starting in mid-March, but are very open to extending. We are looking for someone who is fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID. We are very cautious with social distancing and are looking for someone who is the same.
Our perfect candidate has experience watching infants, and is a big fan of going on walks, reading books, and tummy time. :). We're also looking for someone who is pet-friendly -- we have a 2 year-old dachshund who sometimes enjoys being near his baby brother. :)
This job pays $20/hour, gross before taxes (and will be run as payroll).

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.
