A little bit about us
We are looking for a part time nanny for our daughter, Coraline (we call her Cora) starting in August. She just turned one year at the end of April. Cora was born at 30 weeks at 2lbs and was in the NICU for 11 weeks. She is currently at a full time day care center with her older brother. We are looking for a change because Cora is having quite a few developmental delays and would like more one on one time and to help reduce how often she gets sick! She also has a lot of medical appointments and we continue to pay for child care when she doesn’t attend the center. We still have a long road and likely more diagnoses to come.
I have a very flexible work schedule and will need only 4 hours a day M-F of child care. The times can be flexible based on our mutual schedule. My husband works from home on Mondays and Fridays so there is extra flexibility those days too. Our son will be started Pre-K in August and we may need help with the occasional pick up. We do have 3 very friendly, hypoallergenic dogs.
Non smoker and CPR certified are preferred.
