A little bit about us
We need a nanny starting in early October. Our son Gabriel will be 5 months old. He is healthy. We live in Sellwood and would prefer a nanny come to our home but are flexible if the nanny lives close by or en route to our work. We are still sorting out the hours, but likely it would be 3 full-time days, likely 30 hours/week. Responsibilities would be child care and housekeeping when able. We wouldn't want any driving unless in the case of an emergency.

A little bit about us
We're a family of four with one 4-month-old and a 9-year-old (he's only here part time and self-sufficient). We also have a gigantic, hilarious Savannah cat and two dart frogs. We all live together in an old home we spent a year renovating, doing much of the work our selves. We value nature, art, and curiosity.
My wife and I are looking for a nanny to care for our easy going 4-month-old son during the week while we both work from home. We live in close in SE Portland near parks, coffee shops, and restaurants. Care for our son, basic meal prep and feeding, and light clean up of dishes/his clothes are primary responsibilities.
We aren't 100% sure on the schedule yet as my wife doesn't resume work until mid-June, but it will likely be 9AM-3PM Monday-Friday. We are flexible on this given we both work from home.

A little bit about us
Full time nanny position available starting April 1st (or earlier) for a mixed race family in SE Portland (Woodstock). There are two children in the family with the nanny’s primary focus on a three month old. The other child is a four and a half year-old who goes to preschool currently from 8am to 3pm. The nanny’s schedule will be Monday through Friday from 8:30am-4:30pm with the opportunity to add occasional additional hours if the nanny is interested. The nanny will be in charge of planning daily activities (potentially including school drop off and pick up), maintaining a consistent schedule, and helping encourage development through play for an infant and a toddler who thrives on routine. The family is looking for someone who is able to be playful and active with the children both indoors and outdoors, regardless of the season. The nanny will also be responsible for light household and child-specific duties including putting toys away, loading/unloading dishwasher, laundry and meal prep, assembling basic child toys/equipment when necessary, and researching best practices for young children. The family has a loving labrador retriever, so the nanny must be comfortable with dogs. With both parents working from home in their respective offices, the parents will respect the nanny’s authority while working. The ideal nanny has a background in child development or education, has strong communication skills, is organized, energetic, flexible and up to date on vaccinations. The family seeks to hire a nanny who will become an integral part of the family.

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 Portland, OR? 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.
