A little bit about us
We’re looking for care for our very social, sweet and silly 7 month old daughter this summer (mid-May to mid-August) M-F between the hours of 8:30-3ish (open to longer hours if you'd like). She currently naps between 9-10am and 1-2:30pm. During that time we'd ask that you clean up her toys, dishes/bottles and the rest of the time is all for you! We live in Queen Anne a few minute walk from Soundview Terrace park, we have plenty of space inside and outside to play with the baby and have a very social cat who thinks he’s a dog (and still wishes he was the #1 baby).

Hi I am looking for someone to watch my 2 year old son on December 29th for 14 hours. My partner and I will be going to a concert and would like to pick up my son in the morning. He doesn’t talk (except he says “hey” and “hi”), is an extremely picky eater, and very attached to me. He loves playing with balls, blocks, bubbles, and loves being read to. We are looking to pay $15 hourly

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.
