A little bit about us
Our 2.5 yo is struggling to adapt to daycare and keeps getting sent home for crying until she throws up.
We are looking for someone to come tidy a bit and do laundry for 6 hours on days our child is able to stay at daycare, but who is willing to switch to watching our toddler when she gets sent home.
We would need you to be ok watching a moderately sick kid sometimes, too, and ok coming to work moderately ill.
We need help so I don’t have to leave my job just to transition to daycare. We need help for about six months of daycare, starting in September. No work on Labor Day, Thanksgiving and the day after, Christmas day, New Year's day, memorial day, and fourth of july.
Watching TV (eg, while folding laundry) and listening to podcasts while not watching the kid is fine, and currently the kid is getting sent home 1-2 days a week. We hope as she adjusts that it will be less often.
Work would be at our home in North Richland. Please message if you are interested.

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.
