A little bit about us…

Hello! We have 1 baby girl (currently 2 months old). We are looking for flexible nanny care. I am a nurse and work 3 days a week (hopefully 1-2 of those days will be weekends and we will not need childcare) My husband is in tech sales.

The hours we would need childcare would be from approximately 8am-8pm 1-2 days a week (the days would vary based on my work schedule as a nurse, but would know the days in advance).

We also have a very loving golden retriever dog.

Thank you!!
