A little bit about us
I do not mind dropping or picking up my child at another family's home. My home is a bit on the smaller side, it is on the first floor of a 2 flat home. I do have two dogs in my home for potential nanny's and nanny share families so a nanny would have to be familiar around dogs.
Would love a nanny to be able to work from 8am to 5pm and have some flexibility in case work run longs or something unexpected happens. I would also love help setting a schedule with my baby as he grows!
Proof of COVID and TDaP vaccinations required. Thank you!

An added bonus would be willingness to walk our dog on occasion but this is not required-it would just be helpful. We live near the University of Chicago campus so this position is likely optimal for a college student or for someone who lives in the area and works their day job from home.

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.
