We aren’t making 6 figures so a price would be talked about and offers appreciated and considered. When it comes to my kids I’m definitely a mama bear so there would be a very thorough “interview” I hope you understand. My son is who you would be with all day and as he may be a handful sometimes he is still a sweet boy. Hopefully get to know some really awesome potential people. Thank you for reading ! Would love to get to know you :)

My scheduled days are usually Monday (2pm-5pm), Wednesday (2pm-5pm), and Friday (11am-5pm)
I would need someone who can come to our home because I do not drive. I’m 24 and we are a military family! We also have a fur baby (Demi).
Also I’m willing to talk about pay.

A little bit about us
Hello everyone! My husband Conlan and I are looking for a family interested in a nanny-share arrangement starting October 31st. My husband primarily work from home, and I works from home 3-4 days per week. We live in SE Olympia in a private, safe, and wooded neighborhood, an ideal environment for children. Our daughter enjoys playing daily in our cul-de-sac and exploring the surrounding woods. We're at the end of the street, with no nearby neighbors, making it a peaceful, spacious setting. Our nanny takes our daughter Maeve on walks almost every day when the weather is nice.
We have a clean, well-kept, smoke-free home and are seeking to share our nanny with a family who has a child under 2 years old. Maeve is currently 16 months old, and a child of similar age would be ideal, though we would consider one as young as 6 months.
Over the past year, we’ve shared our nanny with another family and found her impeccable references, originally from the Care app, to be spot-on. This arrangement is coming to an end soon, so we’re looking for a new family to share with. Our nanny, who lives nearby in Yelm, has years of experience with multiple families (3), caring for their children for 3-5 years each. All have had glowing things to say about her, including her reliability—she has never been late to our home.
Our nanny works full-time Monday through Friday (7:45am to 4:30pm), and her pay is $21.00 per hour, with guaranteed full-time hours and 6.5 days of PTO/sick leave as required by WA state. She has no concerns about late nights or overtime under this arrangement. We are looking for another family that also requires a full-time nanny and is willing to split the cost. Unfortunately, part-time arrangements won’t work for us.
Please feel free to reach out via PM if you have any questions!

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Olympia, WA
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 Olympia, WA
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 Olympia, WA? 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.
