A little bit about us
Our daughter will be 2 in October and we live in downtown Brooklyn. We’ve been with our nanny since January 2022 and she’s amazing. Our daughter adores her and joyfully says goodbye to me each morning so she can start her “adventures” with Miss Shawana.
I work from home full-time while my husband is a teacher in Kensington aka out of the house every day. We also have a very sweet cockapoo named Buddy.
Very flexible on share hosting arrangements. Up to now we have been fully at the other family’s home!

Our girls will be 4 months old when I return to work. So far, they are sweet, happy babies who eat well and sleep well and are on a consistent (but flexible) feeding/napping schedule. Both of us work from home 1-2 days a week and active grandparents and other extended family members will be around often even when we are working.
We are looking for someone:
With previous multiples experience, or experience with infant nanny shares
Kind, patient, and supportive of baby development, enrichment, and milestones, but also willing to just give our babies lots of love while we are away.
Comfortable taking initiative, staying organized, and keeping our babies on a schedule (feedings, naps, outings as appropriate)
Supportive of first time parents - we'd love someone who can help us learn the ropes while respecting our parenting style
Willing to help with baby-related household tasks like bottle cleaning, baby laundry, light tidying, and staying on top of supplies/shopping lists.
We also have a large dog and a cat, while no pet care will be expected, they are prominent members of the household

What is an Infant Nanny in Brooklyn, NY
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 Brooklyn, NY? 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.
