A little bit about us
Our daughter (8) is energetic and very imaginative. She loves swimming and crafts.
Our son (11) loves playing games, playing outside, sports, and swimming. He also loves to draw.
In addition to playing with the kids (taking them to parks, our local waterpark, science city, play dates, etc.) responsibilities would include: helping with daily homework, cleaning dishes/keeping kitchen clean, picking up the house, wash/dry/fold laundry, making meals for the kids for lunch, and making sure they are eating healthy snacks throughout the day.
- Non-smoker
- Spanish-speaking is preferred. Would love to have the kids learn Spanish and someday be fluent in Spanish.
- CPR and First Aid certified is a plus
- Must have reliable transportation and be able to take kids to events around the city. Our oldest doesn't need a car seat, but our daughter still uses one.
- Strong swimmer. We have a pool in our backyard, so knowing how to swim and being able to engage with them while in the pool is a requirement.
- Special education experience is a plus. Our daughter has ADHD so doing homework consistently throughout the summer is a big priority for us to make sure she stays on track for next year. Her current areas of need are math and spelling.
We also have a small Cavapoo dog, Belle. She's very friendly and loves to snuggle.
Wife, Denise, works from home one or two days a week. Keeping the kids entertained while she is working from home is a priority.
Dad, Justin, works construction and will be handing off most mornings and afternoons.

A little bit about us
My children have been in daycare since they were each 12 weeks old. Now that we're expecting baby #3, we're looking for a nanny.
My husband and I are both small business owners. He's in lawn care, I work from home and do media relations for retirement communities in California. Both of us are graduates of Kansas State University.
We're looking for a nanny who loves the outdoors and would like to spend plenty of time with our kiddos on our land (3 acres), doing puzzles and reading books. My daughter will be starting kindergarten in August, so we're looking for a nanny from April to August. Most of the time would be spent with the two older children, with some work with the newborn (very limited) so I could send emails and write during the day.
We are looking for summer programs for Mackenzie (gymnastics, etc.), so we may also have some pick-up duties.
We are a Christian family (Catholic), so having someone comfortable with this is essential, as my children will be talking about their faith. I try my best to limit screen time with my children, but an hour or two is fine. We are working on potty training with my 2.5-year-old, and he just needs a little extra help to get him to the finish line (no pun intended).
Fees are negotiable and we will do a background check.

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.
