Hello!
We are looking into a part time nanny or a nanny share for two days a week starting in January. Our little S will be 3 months old by that time and Around that same time I'll start a full time job- sometimes working from home sometimes at the office. My mom will be helping out a few days a week and so that leaves us needing a nanny for 2 days a week. We most likely will need a nanny on Tuesdays and Wednesdays or Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. We are a bilingual family in Spanish and English and would love someone who is also fluent in both languages and could speak to S in Spanish, but it is not a requirement!
We are located in the Hyde Park neighborhood. Expectations include helping our little one with her feed, play, and nap schedule and helping to clean bottles and baby items as needed.
If you are a nanny that think this would work for you or a family looking for another family to do a nanny share with- we'd love to hear from you!

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.
