Hello! We are looking for a nanny for our growing family. I am due to have a baby boy sometime very soon and have 6 weeks of leave. After that we will need someone full time during school hours (7-4). We also have a sweet 6 year old who is in Kindergarten. You would only provide care for him on days that he has off of school. We are an active family. We love books, animals and spending time together and hope to add someone who will love our boys.

A little bit about us
We're excited to welcome a reliable, nurturing, and pet-loving nanny to our family two days a week (Mondays and Wednesdays, 8 a.m. - 4 PM) to care for our 18-month-old daughter and 3-month-old son. My husband works from home so we will need someone comfortable with that. We also have a sheepadoodle named Aspen is friendly and loves her siblings.
A little about our family. We're a newly family of four who just welcomed our baby boy! We love the simple joys in life like walks, great music, and relaxing together.
Genuine connections mean the world to us, and we enjoy discovering fun activities around Des Moines, especially when food is involved (we're big foodies!). We'd describe ourselves as a "scrunchy" family-embracing remedies and a non-toxic lifestyle while keeping things balanced and realistic. We're looking for someone who can match our laid-back, warm, and gentle personalities. We are looking for a nanny who is fun-spirited and loves creating joyful moments with our kiddos.

What is an Infant Nanny in Des Moines, IA
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 Des Moines, IA? 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.
