A little bit about us
My husband and I are first time parents and are so excited for the arrival for our boy in September. We are looking for a nanny who is bilingual in Spanish to help ensure we continue his exposure to speaking and understanding Spanish consistent. I will have maternity leave for about 3/4 months so we are hoping to begin introducing him to his care around 2 months or so.
We are open to seeing what options the nanny has available for his care - safety and the health of his exposure to things are a big priority to us.
We look forward to speaking with those interested in helping care for our boy!

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.
