The ideal schedule will be Monday to Wednesday from 7 am to 8:55 am. I would need a nanny to bring my child to school. On Thursday and Friday, the schedule is 5 am to 8:55 am. Nanny will drop off my child at school. The school schedule is 8:55 am to 3:15 pm and the school is under 5 minutes away from our home. I will need a nanny to pick my daughter up from school and be a sitter from 3:15 pm to 5:30 pm. I'll provide meals for my child before and after school.

* If you have good standing with care4kids I can have care4kids pay for the service. It's an option to consider. *

A little bit about us…

I'm currently pregnant, expecting a baby boy in December. We will need up to 30 hours of childcare starting in March, 2023. I know I'm looking early, but as many people have waitlists, I wanted to get the ball rolling.

We're a fairly laidback family and both my husband and I work, so we are looking for someone who can look after our little one during the work day, Tuesday-Friday. We're open to having someone come to our home or dropping our boy off at your home and picking him up each day. As he will only be three months old at that time, we need someone who is comfortable with changing diapers and bottle feeding (hoping to pump, but will use formula if that's not possible). We're open to "nanny sharing" and are excited to get to know you!
