A little bit about us
We have two young children under 4 who are homeschooled, as well as a 15-year-old who follows a hybrid school schedule. Our home runs best with consistency, organization, and proactive support, and we are looking for someone who naturally brings those qualities.
This role includes both childcare and household management. You will help maintain structured daily routines, support homeschool activities, keep the home organized, and assist with scheduling and day-to-day logistics. We value someone who can think ahead, stay calm under pressure, and take initiative without needing constant direction.
We are a busy household and do travel at times, so flexibility is important. There will be occasions where travel is required, as well as some overnight or live-in support to maintain consistency for the children.
We are offering a long-term opportunity for the right person, with competitive pay, guaranteed hours, and performance-based bonuses. Experience with young children and/or homeschool support is highly valued.
We are looking for someone reliable, organized, and genuinely invested in helping a household run smoothly — someone who takes pride in creating structure, stability, and a positive environment for children to grow and thrive.
If you are proactive, dependable, and naturally take ownership in your role, we would love to connect with you.

How to Find Live-In Nanny Jobs in Michigan
Are you a nanny looking for a live-in nanny job? Nanny Lane is a nanny website to help you find a live-in nanny job in your area. You create your profile and connect with families that meet your needs. Then, as you meet with families you can discuss and finalize details around cost and responsibilities.
What is a Live-In Nanny
A live-in nanny provides in-home child care and resides with the family that they care for. They are usually full-time and sometimes support with housekeeping, errands and other household responsibilities. Some live-in nannies stay with their employer’s full-time or they live with their employer’s for a portion of the week and spend the other portion at their home. 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 Michigan
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 Michigan
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.
