A little bit about us
We're looking for a nanny who loves the infant stage and finds meaning in slow, attentive care. Our daughter will be five months old when this position begins. This is a temporary role for June through the end of October as we bridge to her starting daycare.
Both parents work from home, but you’ll have your own dedicated space and full responsibility for our daughter during the day. We trust our nanny to take the lead while remaining available for occasional check-ins or support as needed. Alongside childcare, the role includes light household duties to help keep our home running smoothly.
We need care Monday through Thursday from 8am to 5pm.
Primary responsibilities include:
- Engaging in age-appropriate activities that support gross motor and cognitive development
- Tracking feeds and naps
- Washing and sanitizing bottles/pump parts
- Keeping play areas tidy
- Getting outside for stroller walks and time on a picnic blanket
Secondary responsibilities when time allows include:
- Preparing purees and soft foods for baby
- Preparing simple healthy meals for the family
- Helping with family laundry
Qualifications
- At least two years of experience caring for infants
- Willing and curious to follow RIE's caregiving philosophy–treating baby with respect, welcoming all feelings, encouraging independent play, and resisting the urge to rush in at the first sign of frustration. We'll walk you through it and share resources.
- CPR and First Aid certified (or willing to get certified before starting)
- Up to date on vaccinations, including measles
- Non-smoker
- Valid driver's license and clean driving record
Compensation
- $22-$26/hour depending on experience and qualifications
- 36 guaranteed hours per week, regardless of holidays, schedule changes, or family vacation days when care isn't needed
- Up to five days of unpaid time off for the nanny to take as needed

A little bit about us
Looking for a nanny to start caring for our new baby girl (due late Dec / early Jan 2026) when I return to work post-maternity leave (March 2026). Primary care would occur 4 days a week, between 9am-5pm, with our two older boys returning home from school at 3pm. We prefer someone that has graduated high school and has a clean driving record. It’s a plus if you’re a Christian, attend church regularly, and have a reference from your pastor/youth pastor/church leader.

Tommy is 6 months old, quite the happy boy! He has never had childcare as mom and dad have been home with him since birth. We are returning to work and need a part time nanny in our home, roughly 5 hours a day Monday-Thursday. Looking for someone to help him learn about the world, love him like their own, and essentially be part of our family - after all our nanny would spend more time with him than either of us would. Trust and elaborate communication are vital to us.

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.

What is an Infant Nanny in Matthews, NC
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 Matthews, NC? 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.
