A little bit about us

We have a baby boy James that was born 12/18/23. My wife and I are mid 30s but I have heart failure so I can only push myself so hard and my wife had a few complications so I’ve been worried about her.
I am self employed so my hours are flexible but it takes a lot on me to do everything.
So I think we just need some help until she gets better and we get adjusted.
We live in a nice 3 bedroom 2 floor condo with plenty of room.
We do have a small husky (50lb) but she’s has been extremely protective of our new boy.

A little bit about us

We need help for a few months while my wife is on maternity. We'd like to hire someone to spend time focusing on activities with our 3-yo, while my wife focuses on our new baby. We could really use the help in the mornings 9am to 2pm on weekdays. We're very conscious of COVID and would appreciate a nanny who is similarly contientious. I currently work from home, so everyone would be under the same roof during working hours. Hopefully, you can get our kiddo out and about each mornng. We're in central west chester, and need help through december. Thanks!

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.
