The Haas Family

A little bit about us

We’re currently looking for part-time childcare help for our two daughters (ages 3 and 16 months) at our home in Asbury. We’re hoping to find someone kind, reliable, and energetic who enjoys spending time with young kids and can help us a couple of days a week.
A bit about us and the job:
🧒👶 Our 3-year-old is outgoing and very verbal, and our 16-month-old is curious, active, and always exploring.
📅 We’re looking for help on Thursdays and Fridays, ideally 9–5, but we’re open to discussing what works best.
💵 Pay is $11–$15/hour, based on experience.
🛠️ You’d be helping with:
• Engaging and playing with the kids
• Prepping meals/snacks
• Managing naps
• Keeping toy clutter under control (no small feat! 😅)
🌿 We live on a small farm in Asbury with a great yard for outdoor play and friendly animals (dogs, a cat, chickens, ducks, and livestock). One of us is usually home—either working or running errands—so you’ll always have support nearby.
👶 This could be a great opportunity for someone just starting out in babysitting or looking to gain experience, since you’ll never be completely on your own.
🚗 No driving or transportation of the kids is expected.
We’re looking for someone who is:
• Communicative, dependable, and considerate
• Honest and aligned with how we care for our kids
• Comfortable with routines and open to checking in when needed
• Engaged, active, and consistent
✨ Bonus (but not required!): We’re also occasionally looking for a sitter for date nights and someone who could help with animal care when we travel.
Thanks so much! 💛

Preparing for a Nanny Interview for an Infant Care Position

What is your specific experience with this age group?
Are you Infant CPR/First Aid certified in Alta, WV? 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.
