A little bit about us
Our family is relocating from Washington State to Chicago and looking for a nanny (or nanny share) beginning 9/3. We are moving to a home in Old Irving Park in August, and my husband, Quincy, and I will both be working hybrid schedules. Our son Kingston is 7 months old and is an easy going, happy boy. We also have a very sweet, people-loving, 3-year-old black lab named Millie. Must love dogs!! She is our "other" child :)
This position would be a Monday-Friday schedule. Not positive on exact times yet but most likely 9am-5pm (guaranteed 40 hrs/week). Additional responsibilities to childcare would include light pet care (i.e., taking Millie out to the bathroom, giving her breakfast/dinner, bringing her on walks if you are comfortable with that) and light child-related housework (i.e., cleaning up any dishes or toys used during the day, occasional load of laundry, etc). We look forward to hearing from you!

A little bit about us
Hi! We are looking for a shared nanny for our sweet 8 month old in September of this year.
I work from home and love the idea of being able to be close with my baby between meetings and when I can end early.
It’s working out great for my husband who is on paternity and I love the flexibility I have.
This would be a 830-330 or 4pm job every day with summer Fridays being 830-2.
My expectations are that you have a network of nanny’s that do fun things with the babies around the neighborhood to get her out of the house and exposed to other kids.
Moderate housework like cleaning bottles and throwing in some laundry.

A little bit about us
We're a family of 3 and we have just welcomed a baby girl, Charlotte, into the world! We're looking for a full-time caretaker for our infant once our maternity/paternity leave ends. The caretaker's responsibilities will be feeding and changing, putting the baby through prescribed activities before and after feedings, putting the baby to sleep and keep the baby safe throughout the day. No other required responsibilities. We both have hybrid work schedules. So there will always be at least one parent around throughout the day to help as needed.

What is an Infant Nanny in Chicago, IL
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 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.
