A little bit about us…

My wife and I just moved to the Roaring Fork Valley and are looking for a nanny. We are also very interested in a nanny share. Our daughter, Isla, is 14 months old.

My wife works as a dentist in Carbondale and I’m currently a stay at home dad, but I plan to start looking for work soon. To begin, the days and hours are flexible, but may grow more specific once I find work. My wife and I share one car.

We live in Glenwood Springs. We have an older dog (Ria) and cat (Casco) that are very friendly and low maintenance. We do not expect the nanny to do much care for the animals, but know Ria, (border collie mix) would love to tag along for walks if the nanny feels comfortable. We are also flexible with having our daughter go to someone else’s home.

The outdoors, exploring, cooking, creativity, and building a community around us are very important parts of our lives. Hopefully we share these values with whoever we meet to help take care of Isla. We also hope this opportunity allows us to meet people and allows Isla the chance to interact with others.

A little bit about us…

I am expecting my first child in June and looking for a nanny who has experience with infant care. I finish my maternity leave at the end of September. My husband and I both work from home (option to go into the local office if we want) so our schedules are pretty flexible, but our jobs require a lot of meetings and focus time. We're looking for a nanny we can share with another family in our neighborhood M-F roughly 9-4. We also have a very cute and well-behaved dog named Laika, but we do not expect the nanny to care for the dog, just want you to know there will be one in the house. We're excited to meet you!
