and ill most likely go back to work in January. So, they will be 3ish months old once I'm back to work. I work from home so I can also assist throughout the day when I have free time! We will need help 5 days a week for about 6 hours a day, preferably 10-4pm.
We have 1 young dog and 2 cats. Our dog is very friendly but needs to get to know people first since she's nervous around new, unknown people, but no pet care is needed. Our cats are old and chill, and lay in our bed all day, and wont be a bother.
We live in a 2 story house so there may be a lot of going up and down the stairs.

What is an Infant Nanny in Portland, OR

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.
