A little bit about us
We need an overnight nanny for Saturday 5:30pm-4:30am. With that being said it does have the potential to become a full time thing during the days as I started a new job dinner for the most part will already be done and served you'd just be responsible for getting them to bed and having them clean up any messes they left behind before bed.

A little bit about us
We’re looking for part-time (weekend) childcare for our 1-yr-old and 4-yr-old boys. Our four-year-old is special needs – legally deaf – but wears hearing aids and when they’re in, uses speech like any other kid his age. Hours would be sporadic (likely back-up support for our nanny when needed on the weekdays and blocks of time on the weekends). Weekend hours would be regular starting in September.

Hello! My name is Jessica and I am looking for a full time nanny for my 10 year old son who is homeschooled. Approximate hours would be M-F, 8:30am-4:30pm. My son is on the autism spectrum, so experience with autistic kids / special needs kiddos is a plus, but not a requirement. He's fully verbal and self-sufficient for the most part. He mostly only needs help with processing/understanding social situations and emotions. He's extremely social, energetic and LOVES to laugh and be outdoors. We go in nature all the time, paddle boarding, fishing, looking for snakes, frogs, crystals, etc. I am looking for someone just as energetic, playful and bubbly as he is, who can keep up with him and help him burn off energy during the day. His homeschool work is mostly done online and won't require much from you, other than ensuring he does it and helping if needed. Pay starts at $24/hour, but I need someone who can help with household chores, meal prep and occasionally chauffeur my 16 year old daughter around. For that, I am willing to pay up to $26/hour, depending on your experience and ability. We're a single parent family, so helping me balance some of the load I carry alone is something I am willing to pay more for. Please reach out with any questions 🙂
