A little bit about us
My name is McKenzie, my husband is Jacob and we have a new little boy Jack who will be about 4 months old when I go back to work from maternity leave! We live in Tumwater near Safeway and Costco.
Jack is currently 2 months old and an absolute dream–very consolable, a fresh diaper, bottle, nap or some burping usually keeps him happy. He was born with a brain bleed that we currently have him on anti-seizure medicine for, however after his follow up MRI will likely be weaned off. Despite his birth trauma he's a typical happy 2 month old who was quite a popular guy in the NICU! :)
My husband Jacob will be going back to work in July, and I will be returning in August. I'm an esthetician and will likely be working 4 days a week, and will only need childcare on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. I would likely need care on those days from about 8:30-5:30pm as I typically work 8:45-5:15 and take only 10 minutes to get to work. It would be great to have you nanny at our home so neither of us would need to pick up or drop off but that's not a problem!
We do have a dog Nora and a cat Watson who are very easy to take care of. They both get fed in the morning and Nora will let you know when she needs to go out to go potty. The cat usually keeps to himself, he can be a little standoffish so we can always keep him secluded in our room. Beyond that the fur babies enjoy hanging with their little human, especially Nora!
We wouldn't mind sharing a nanny, and are pretty open to either having Jack at yours, someone else's or our home with another child so long as we could receive a few updates throughout the day like photos and/or videos.
We're a little anxious as we pivot back into our jobs and leaving our son with someone we'll get to know, but also excited for a new normal with our sweet boy.
Thank you for your time and we hope to hear from you soon!
Warmest regards,
The Orabanecs

I believe we could work it out that you drop the baby off at my in-laws around 4 so I could continue to pick her up from there when I get off.

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.

What is an Infant Nanny in Tumwater, 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 Tumwater, 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.
