We are looking for a family to share a nanny and a nanny for our son this fall starting late September. He will be about 8 weeks old then.
We have two cats and live by lots of parks. Both my husband and I work from home and need someone for afternoons, though we could switch one day to mornings. I work part time and my husband full time.
We don’t need any care for our cats or housework.

Hi! We are looking for a nanny to start asap to care for our 3 year old boy and 1 year old girl. Expectations are relatively straightforward. Keep them safe and engaged. Being outside is a priority along with being prepared for Chicago weather. Both children will be signed up for park district classes, so escorting them to/from is required (classes are walking distance). Light housework will be expected (picking up play areas, washing kids dishes, etc).
Also important: reading books, art projects, singing/dancing, numbers, ABCs...

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.
