A little bit about us
We are the Amundson family looking for a nanny to start as soon as possible. We are in East Fishers. We need full time Monday-Friday 9am-5pm. We want someone to be with us long term and will offer paid holidays, vacation/sick time, and your birthday off.
The boys are 2, 5,and 8. All three boys are very active and want a nanny who wants to do crafts with them, take them to parks and play. They love to be active outside as much as possible.
The two year old is obsessed with cats, cars, crafts and trains. He also really enjoys cleaning, which I hope continues to as he gets older, lol. He's shy at first but loves those in his inner circle fiercely.
The five year old has Down syndrome but is very typical in many ways and doesn't require any special training. He is fully included at school and enjoys horses, Duplos, Firetrucks and books. He is still working on speech but gets his point across and is very social. He's very small for his age and many people think he's a twin of the 2 year old.
Our oldest is a very smart and creative child. He loves dinosaurs, creating stop motion videos, LEGOs, card/board games, making up stories, and singing. He enjoys helping with his brothers. He has the inattentive subtype of ADHD (not the more common hyperactive), which is partially why he's so creative. I joke that he's like a tiny version of an absent minded professor.
The nanny would need to feel comfortable driving the kids to activities or therapies, help with the kid laundry and help keep their play spaces tidy.
You would be with our middle child in his kindergarten classroom about 8 hours a week while the little one is in preschool during the school year. The school is a private religious school. During the school year the nanny would have only the 2 year old about 70% of the time, be in classroom with the 5 year old about 20% of the time and have all three boys about 10% of the time. During the summer and school breaks you'd have all three.

A little bit about us
Hello! Our names are Samantha and Molly and we are two full-time working foster mamas of 5. Samantha is a corporate trainer and Molly is a restaurant manager. We are looking for someone from 2:10-5:30 M-F for after school care for our two oldest boys primarily. They're 7 & 8 and are both in the 2nd grade. We need someone to get them off the bus, give them a snack, play, and help with homework is a must. Our 3 foster littles are very easy going. Our 2 year old will likely nap until 3-4p.m. and our 8 month old babe is VERY easy going. We have a 3 year old that is with us 2 weeks out of the month. She is hilarious and will keep you entertained. Samantha's Dad does live with us so he will always be around the house should you need him. However, we are mostly hiring a nanny for these times to give him a little break because he's a sour old man. We are also just needing someone to help with homework for our oldest boys. By the end of the day with 5 kids...homework is the last thing we want to do. We want to utilize our nanny for this so our evenings are our family time. Our oldest has tutoring 3 days a week that either Samantha or Molly will take him to, so on average you'll have a combination of 3-5 kids in your care. Because we're a foster family, you will be required to do a DCS background check. We are looking for someone that can be tough but fair, particularly for our school aged kiddos. They need someone who isn't afraid to tell them no and redirect them to stay on task. We do have dogs, but they're super friendly and Samantha's Dad will take care of them. We hope you'll be the perfect fit for our family!
