A little bit about us

My husband and I are both first time parents to a baby girl who is due on June 1! Although I'm lucky enough to work a full-time hybrid job, I am expected to go back to work by mid-July. We're looking for a caregiver to watch our daughter on Mondays from 8am until 7:30pm and then more flexible hours on Wednesday and Thursday (probably around 9am through 6pm). If we find a family with compatible needs, we would be happy to offer our home to host childcare. We don't have any pets, and we do have a car for transportation as needed.

A little bit about us

We are looking for a kind, self-motivated nanny, who thinks of unique ways to enrich our child, who is just two months old. We are looking for 40 hours a week. This is our second daughter, with our first being 2 years old and in school.

Our previous nanny has said we are the best family she's ever worked for, but unfortunately she changed her career and we are sad to lose her!

The most important thing to us is our child’s emotional development. We are looking for somebody who understands even a baby is a person and to allow our child to express her emotions in a healthy and expanding way.

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 Alexandria. 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.
