Looking for a full time, 30-40 hr/week nanny to our sweet 6 month old daughter Penny. She was diagnosed with a brain injury shortly after birth. She has been a fighter however and recently came off hospice! We do expect her caretaker to work with her on specific occupational therapies. Other than that she eats and naps well, loves cuddles, and is starting to laugh at different sensory cues. We hope you can be a blessing to our already lucky Penny!

Looking for weekend (Th-Sunday) and occasional travel nanny is comfortable with multiple kids. Smallest kids ( 2 -5 year olds) are the bulk of the responsibility. Older kids are pretty self sufficient but need adult supervision.

Seeking help on Thursday-Sundays through year end and occasionally with travel. We're a fun family with great kids but we're a little outnumbered and both mom and dad work, travel and have busy schedules.

Important that our selected nanny has a car + valid drivers license, is flexible with scheduling as work trips pop up often, is available for travel with our family as needed (with notice).
