A little bit about us

I’d like for you to help me create a stable routine for the kids… this would involve some days coming to the house and just playing doing activities with them, picking up or bringing my son to school, maybe even to the park after school, depending. I would like to start out at part time however, if you end up a good fit, we would transition to full time. I look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your help, thanks.

A little bit about us

Soon to be a family of 4! Baby boy coming late April 2026.

During the summer, we are looking for help as we adjust from a family of 3 to a family of 4. Your main focus would be on our 2 year old daughter. Playing with her outside, going on walks, etc. This is definitely a more flexible schedule during the summer, and you will only be needed for an hour or two.

During the fall the hours and days will be more consistent. This is a part time offer that is mainly Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Tuesdays will between 1:30pm until 11pm and Wednesdays between 10:30 am to 6pm.
The times will change but 11pm would be the absolute latest and 10:30am would be the earliest.


**the ideal candidate will be able to work with us this summer and the fall. If you aren’t able to commit to the fall schedule please don’t reach out. We are wanting someone consistent.***

As parents we understand the struggle to find childcare, but we would prefer our nanny to not bring their own child. That is something we are willing to reconsider after sometime working together. Additionally, we do have one small dog- a corgi- she is energetic but friendly.


** Responsibilities will include: **
Feeding our daughter meals or snacks that will be already prepared (literally just need you to heat them up and serve her)

Nap time or bedtime routine

And engaging with her. She’s great a self play but taking her outside to play or go for walks is highly encouraged

Lastly, just child centric pickup. We are teaching her to put away her toys, but she’s 2 so she will need to be reminded or helped with that

The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.

The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Lafayette. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

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.
