A little bit about us
Our current Nanny is moving, and while we are sad to see her go, we are looking for a new individual to join our lives! We are a traditional home with plenty of room for play and outdoor space, along with a zoo membership, and budget to take them on field trips as desired.
Our daughters remain home during the day, and our son will start Kindergarten at a private school in the fall. He will be dropped off by us, however we do require pickup at 3PM; and will reimburse for gas and mileage in addition to the hourly pay.
We provide groceries as selected for our nanny for meals while in our home, and can pay as frequently as needed (we currently pay every Friday).
No pets in our home.

A little bit about us
A little about us: we're in our 30's, and this is our first baby after an infertility battle. We're generally laid back, like to camp, enjoy good eats and drinks, value close friends and family, love baseball and our dog, and some good DIY projects. We value gentle parenting, attachment and attunement, and the chance to learn and make mistakes. We value kindness and respect for all people and our planet, and hope to instill that in our baby.
We'd love to meet you and see if we'd be a fit!

A little bit about us
My husband and I both work from home and are looking for someone to help us with our daughter 3-4 days a week so we can get work done. We aren’t ready for daycare yet, especially with Covid and her being so young, so we thought we would look into a nanny or nanny share!

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Portland, OR
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.

What is an Infant Nanny in Portland, OR
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 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.
