A little bit about us
We're a friendly family in South Durham (Hope Valley North) on the lookout for a nanny share arrangement for our adorable 7-month-old daughter starting in January.
Location:
· South Durham (Hope Valley North).
· We're open to hosting the nanny share at our home or alternating between locations, whichever suits best.
· Ideally, we'd like to find a family within a 15-minute drive.
Hours:
· Full-time care needed Monday to Friday, roughly within the typical 8-5 window.
· Our work schedules have some flexibility, so we're open to adjusting the hours to accommodate your needs.
· If a family requires part-time care (30-35 hours per week), we're open to discussing this option as well.
Cost/Pay:
· We're planning to offer our nanny a competitive rate of $24-$30 per hour, to be split between both families based on the number of children.
· We’d like to offer guaranteed hours, sick leave, and paid time off as part of our compensation package, and we'll also provide funds for activities outside the home (zoos, museums, etc.).
· We're committed to adhering to tax laws and will utilize a payroll service for proper documentation.
Children:
· Our nanny share will include 1-2 children, ideally close in age to our 7-month-old daughter.
Start Date:
· We'd like to start at the beginning of January, there is some flexibility.
Term:
· We're looking for a long-term commitment, ideally a family willing to commit for at least 9 months initially, with the intention to extend if our arrangement is mutually beneficial.
Vaccines:
· Our daughter is following the recommended pediatric vaccination schedule, and we'd prefer to work with another family who shares this commitment.
Childcare Philosophy:
· We envision our nanny share to incorporate Montessori and gentle/conscious parenting approaches, with an emphasis on outdoor play. If you're like-minded in your parenting style, we're eager to connect!
Pets:
· We two kitties; therefore, we're seeking a family without pet allergies.

What is an Infant Nanny in Durham, NC

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 Durham, NC? 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.
