A little bit about us
Our need is for approximately 6 hours of care, three days a week. My work schedule is consistent (Monday-Friday, 9:00 am – 6:00 pm), but my husband’s schedule is less predictable. Currently, he has two weekdays off, which means we require childcare on the remaining three days. Ideally, we would need you to begin care an hour or two before I have to leave to take Caleb to school. I will be off to work following after that. My husband will return home to take over once he gets off of work.
We are eager to find a nurturing and responsible caregiver who can become a valued member of our family. We are committed to a fair and reasonable compensation package, and we would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further, along with your experience and qualifications, during a personal interview. We are open to discussing specific days and hours to best suit both our family's needs and your availability.
We look forward to hearing from you soon.

A little bit about us
Our son is easygoing (by infant standards!) and loves stroller naps, playtime at the public library, and playing airplane. We’re excited for our nanny to support his upcoming milestones like introducing new solids, crawling, standing, and walking.
Our two dogs go to their own daycare, but we would like to find someone comfortable with dogs in the event one or both need to be at home.
We would love to connect with you to see if we are a good fit!

Additionally, we love going out on weekends and may need occasional help then as well. This position is perfect for someone who adores babies and is looking to make extra income with a flexible schedule.
We also have a well-behaved mini goldendoodle that will keep you company while the baby naps! If this sounds like a great fit for you, we’d love to chat.

A little bit about us
We are new parents to a 7 month old baby girl and in need of daytime care for her (about 8-4), as well as some light housework. We are in the process of moving, so the first two or so weeks will be out of Manassas, and after that in Alexandria.
Musts:
- Be fully vaccinated, to include the COVID vaccine and booster, and TDAP
- Be COVID conscious and safe (masks, hand washing)
- Be infant CPR certified and have a knowledge of First Aid
- Be able to drive to and from our home, as well as able to transport the baby in case of emergency
If you have children, they are more than welcome to come with you for the day, so long as they are fully vaccinated.
We have two cats that are indoor/outdoor and very friendly! We work from home most days.
We are open to paying you however you prefer, but would love to use a payroll service.

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Alexandria, VA
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 Alexandria, VA
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 Alexandria, VA? 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.
