A little bit about us
We’re looking for part time care for our (currently) 4.5 month old son to start sometime late June/early July as I ramp up my busy season with work and would end early November. My husband works Mon-Fri (4:30am-4pm) year round and I own a photography business which means our schedules get hectic especially during the summer/fall!
While my husband works in Redmond during the week, I will be busy with work at home and while baby is still my priority, I need to be able to transition into finding a happy medium of work/life balance. That’s where you come in!
Our hope is to bring someone into our home 2x a week for 10-15hrs week to care for our little man and maybe help around the house when possible so I can get work and errands done. I’m extremely flexible on schedule as long as both days are between Mon-Thurs & 8:30am-4pm while my hubby is at work! (Added an example schedule for reference but it can be adjusted!)
As far as what we’re looking for out of a nanny these would be the main traits:
-problem solver
-patient & kind
-observant
-efficient
-outgoing/playful/active
-able to take constructive criticism in a positive way & can respond appropriately in all situations (we want to maintain the peace!)
-good with dogs & cats (we have 2 pups & 1 cat)
Our family is big on outdoor time and want our son to spend as much time outside as possible. Bonus if he needs a shower after playtime because yay for sensory development!!!

We have a dog and cat at home.
Most times would be between the hours of 8 and 5 and only for most likely 3 or so hour increments. Because of this we are happy to compensate better than what I would assume to be normal.
All you’d be doing is coming over and watching our son while my wife is gone at an appointment. May have to bottle feed him/change diapers, put him down for a nap or monitor him during one.

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Bend, 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. When you think you’ve found the right match, you can turn the discussion towards compensation and responsibilities.
What is an Infant Nanny in Bend, 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 Bend, 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.
