A little bit about us
Emilia loves to smile, is sleep trained, and has little to no fussiness when it comes to eating. In between nap time and feedings, she loves to play inside or outside, and is a huge fan of stroller walks around Andersonville.
We are both fully vaccinated and are only considering candidates who have also received the vaccine. Looking to hire ASAP, so please feel free to contact us if interested.
Thanks!
- Paul, Libby, & Emilia

A little bit about us
We’d prefer to partner with a host family and drop off each day, as our care needs are limited to Tues-Fri 11:00am-6:00pm. That being said, we have a safe, happy home with one 3yo terrier by a school & the lakefront path, and are open to hosting if the family’s scheduling needs are fairly aligned with ours.
About us: I work in the Loop & my husband is a chef who works in the Loop & Lincoln Square, varies per day. We are laid-back first-time parents, and looking for both a partner family & nanny who are reliable and prioritize health, cleanliness, and activity.
Please reach out if you feel we might be a good fit!

What is an Infant Nanny in Chicago, IL

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 Chicago, IL? 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.
