A little bit about us
I am looking for a helping hand so I need someone to help me get the kids ready making breakfast lunches from 7-8 and then pickup my son from school across the street at 2:30. My other kids will come back at 5:30. Prepare dinner feed them bathe them and put to sleep around 8:30.
Sometimes after they sleep I have to go do overtime work for a couple of hours occasionally. Overnight but the kids are usually asleep and just to have someone there. My main ask is to keep things tidy in the home during the day and laundry.
I’m looking for someone that is able to connect with the children and set a routine to keep them clean and organized.

A live-in nanny schedule can include nights as needed like any other nanny job, however, the employer should always offer compensation for any additional coverage.
Types of Live-In Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Calgary, AB
Before you start looking for a live-in nanny job, it's essential to make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities by learning about the different types of nanny jobs and how they compare to each other.
Most nanny jobs vary in responsibilities and time commitment (e.g. the number of hours worked each week or the length of the commitment). There are temporary live-in nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer live-in nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary live-in nanny positions, there are differences between full-time live-in and part-time live-in nanny jobs. Given that live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want, it's very important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.
How to Interview for Live-In Nanny Jobs in Calgary, AB
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a live-in nanny job interview. Here is a list of some live-in nanny interview questions you should ask:
- Can you tell me about where in the house I will live? Will I have my own bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, etc? Do I have my own entrance?
- What are your expectations around the cleanliness and tidiness of my living quarters?
- What level of privacy can I expect after hours?
- Will I have a curfew in the evenings when I am in charge of the kids the next day?
- Can I have guests over during my days off and only with the employers prior agreement? Am I allowed guests overnight?
Beyond asking these questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
