A little bit about us

I am looking for care for my 6-week-old infant. I would like someone who is patient, nurturing, and willing to help follow an age-appropriate daily schedule. My baby is breastfed, so experience caring for breastfed infants is preferred. During wake windows, I would like the caregiver to engage in healthy developmental activities such as tummy time, reading, talking, singing, and other age-appropriate interactions.

My baby's ideal day follows a consistent routine of eating, sleeping, and engaging in age-appropriate activities during wake windows. I would like the caregiver to support healthy sleep habits, feedings, diaper changes, and developmental activities that encourage growth and bonding. Maintaining a predictable schedule is important.

At 6 weeks old, my baby's main interests are eating, sleeping, and observing the world around them. They enjoy being talked to, cuddled, listening to voices, and engaging in gentle activities during their wake windows. As a breastfed infant, feeding is an important part of their daily routine.

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.
