A little bit about us
It is important to me that the care provider I'm looking for has some sort of experience with babies, their development stages and what kind of play helps them learn at through out their different stages, weather brain development, cognitive, or motor skills. Also lots of hand on play and 1 on 1 attention is important. My little boy is a busy fella! He loves to move and he loves to eat. I am going to need someone that has their own transportation, is not a smoker and is comfortable with animals.( mostly a dog) Ideally I would prefer you to come here to my home, but I am open minded to outside care once or twice a week if it is needed or works out for both of us. I don't necessarily need house cleaning but tidying up through out the day, after mess making or cleaning up slight after meals and snacks if very helpful. I would also love someone who enjoys outside time play as well not just always playing inside! Nature, outside time, and individual freedom to learn and play are apart of our everyday.
Beside care for my baby boy , I am also in search of a baby sitter to come from time to time. In addition to my 1 yr old I have a 11 yr old daughter, and 13 yr old son.
Looking forward to chatting and meeting you all! Thank you for you interest in the job and the hard work you put into child care.

We have two cute doggos, no care needed for them, just fyi (golden and lab retrievers, so biggish). I work from home and will be very around and accessible. I would love cleaning in terms of vacuuming and dishes/kitchen upkeep. I live in a neighborhood with lots of sidewalks and a playground + pool just a few houses away.

We are looking to keep this arrangement at least until he is 6 months old in late January and possibly until he turns 1 in July next year when we will be looking at full-time daycare. If it works out great for everyone it could be longer.
We have one dog who is about 3 years old, she will be going to daycare twice a week from 8-5 and otherwise would be home. We are both hybrid workers but I primarily work from home. So, for a shared arrangement, ideally it would be in the other family's home, but our home has enough space that we could remain separated. For the part-time arrangement, my husband and I would aim to work outside the home on the days/hours the nanny was working, and would stay in our office while the nanny was there if we did end up working from home.
We prefer a non-smoker with reliable transportation who is okay with (ideally who likes) dogs. CPR and First Aid certification is a requirement. As our son gets older, we would like a nanny who has a sense of developmentally appropriate activities like playing outside, crafts, games, books, etc. versus relying on screentime.
The only responsibilities would be related to childcare, but a little light housekeeping related to the baby like washing bottles, emptying diaper pail, or light tidying up before the end of the day would be asked.

If you’re looking for an infant nanny job, you’ve come to the right place! We can help you find an infant care job in your area. Start by telling families about yourself in your profile, and then chat with families to find the right fit. When you think you’ve found the right match, you can turn the discussion towards compensation and responsibilities.
What is an Infant Nanny in Durham, NC
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 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.
