We need a full time nanny for our 2 1/2 year old and under 1 month daughters short term while mother waits for 6 week surgery check to lift anything but the newborn and father waits for hernia surgery and recovery.
Adelaide is precocious, always speaking in grammatical sentences and enjoying playing with older kids at playgrounds, public library etc. She loves being read to, building toys and outdoor toys such as scooters. She wants to be a helper.
Camilla is less than a month old and her mother is with her all the time to EBF. She would need little nanny attention.
We could use help every day. We will discuss a full time schedule that works for you.

Sensory seeking smart, creative, energetic boy needs help with reading/phonics and handwriting skills, lots of exercise, and hopefully someone that can incorporate at home OT/PT into the day. Just 2 days a week, very flexible as we are lucky enough to have retired grandparents nearby. Just want to make sure he’s getting lots of time outside and some good practice with his schoolwork over the summer. Having someone take him to karate or other activities (depending on the day) would be a bonus, but not required. We have tons of indoor/outdoor activities at home, and a small park within walking distance. Kid is super well behaved, sweet, respectful, very talkative but really struggles staying on task. No housework expected, just tidy up after the day’s activities and make yourselves a quick lunch/snack. OT/PT is pretty simple, we have tons of tools and flash cards available. Mostly just coordination/core strength building. Think of games that involve movement while throwing/kicking a ball or yoga moves. Combine all of those together in a scavenger hunt or obstacle course with some phonics words/educational activity and we’re on a roll! Position would be for over summer break.

What Are Short-Term Nanny Jobs?
Short-term nanny jobs are temporary positions with a set end date, such as covering a parental leave, a family move, a summer, or a gap between nannies. They suit nannies who like variety, are between jobs, or want to try a family before committing.
Types of Short-Term Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities
Short-term jobs can be full-time or part-time and last from a few weeks to several months. Responsibilities are the same as in an ongoing job, with an emphasis on getting up to speed quickly. Check the dates, the hours, and whether there is a chance of the role being extended.
How to Interview for Short-Term Nanny Jobs
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:
- What are the start and end dates, and could the job be extended?
- Is the schedule full-time or part-time?
- What is the reason for the temporary role?
- How will I be paid, and is there a written agreement?
- What routines and house rules should I know on day one?
Beyond asking these questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
