Ideally, we would love to share a nanny with another family that lives close by (even better if also in the Arbor Lodge neighborhood).
I will be back at work full time and Tom will be doing homework or other house projects while Penny is being cared for.
At this point, the week days needed are flexible. Most likely we’d want someone to be available between 8-4ish (again, this could potentially be flexible).
Your main role would be taking care of Penny which at this stage mostly means, bottle feeding, playing, naps and walks/hikes. There might be very light cleaning (only what would be used for Penny - like washing bottles etc).

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.
