I have an 8 month old busy body that loves attention. Her father and I work full time jobs so we need someone to spoil her with said attention. She’s super low maintenance and really entertains herself. Please consider us.

Hi! My name is Nick, and my fiancée, Holly and I are currently looking for a nanny to care for our children in our home.
We have a 6 month old girl and a 2 year old boy and are really focused on finding someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys working with small children. Creating a calm, safe, and nurturing environment is very important to us. We’re a close, family-oriented household and value clear communication, reliability, and kindness.
The position would primarily involve caring for our baby in our home during agreed-upon work hours (10-12 hours a week) We’re not looking for additional responsibilities like pick-ups, drop-offs, or pet care — just attentive childcare while my fiance is working. Our goal is to find someone we can trust and build a strong, consistent relationship with over time.
We’d love to connect and see if we might be a good fit!

Looking for a part time nanny 1-2 days per week for our 2 year old son and (almost) 9 month old daughter.
We are flexible on the days/times, but thinking Mondays and Wednesdays from 8 AM - 5 PM. Mom works from home most of the time, going into the office once a week as needed (day of the week varies). Dad owns a small business and may be in and out throughout the day.
We also have a very sweet 9 year old dog that is very low maintenance but would need to be let in and out throughout the day, and fed once in the afternoon.

A little bit about us
Looking for full time care for infants starting in July (he will be 5 1/2 months old). Would be typical working hours (M-F, 9-5). We live off of Devine St in Old Shandon! Require that nanny is comfortable with dogs if working in our home, as we have an 8 year old mini Aussie. We are looking for someone with infant experience, CPR/first aid training. It would be even better if they have early childhood education training. Additional responsibilities outside of care for our child would be maintenance of the home while you're there (leave the home as you find it, light housework). We are interested in nanny share so our little guy has someone to grow/spend time with!

I have a 5 month old named Pharaoh. He’s currently teeth and he’s breast fed, but he’s super sweet and a great baby. I mainly just need someone to watch him when I have to work, it’ll be Wednesday-Friday 10 hours. He’s not in daycare or anything so there’s no responsibilities outside of just him.

My husband is active duty Army and I am going to school full time. Currently, I am pregnant with our second child, and we will be needing someone to help with childcare in house while I do schoolwork, run errands and etc. Our Daughter is still currently going to daycare but we do not like the care that she’s been receiving so we are actively looking for a nanny for 25 hours out of the week, if that. Perhaps 4 hours every other day. Musts: CPR certified, prior childcare experience, a degree in early child development would help but is not necessary, helping with teaching (our daughter is 2), and preparing lunches or breakfast may be needed.

What is an Infant Nanny in Columbia, SC

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 Columbia, SC? 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.
