I have a 16 month old baby boy, named Xaden. He’s energetic, loves to play and run around, and loves doing new things. I just need someone to watch him whenever I have an appointment that I can’t bring him with. All it would entail is entertaining him, and maybe putting him down for a nap if he allows it. We do have cats and a dog, but you wouldn’t have to worry about them.

We have two really incredible children but this position would be primarily to nanny our younger child since our older one is in school full time. This is a full time position - and to date we have been incredibly blessed with two nannies in seven years. Our current nanny is moving back home to another state but she has been with us for almost three years! She is has absolutely become a part of our family and are so sad to see her go. But hoping we can find our next nanny here. Thanks!
