A little bit about us
We need a a live-in-nanny for our three year old daughter, Charlotte. We work out of town and come home for Sundays, Holidays, and important events, but we are pretty busy so she would be in your care most of the time. She is Deaf so knowing ASL would be great, but if you do not then ASL classes would be mandatory (but paid for). She is also autistic, no experience required but you must be patient and kind. Charlotte loves to play and so you just be energetic and ready for a full day of activities. You would work monday-saturday, 8-9. Days off and emergencies are expected so we just need at least a weeks notice(if it's an emergency then we understand if it is last minute). We go on a few vacations a year so it would be nice if you could come, but it is not required. Some perks are you would have your own room, private bathroom, access to our in-home cook, a gym membership, and access to a car that we would like you to use to transport Charlotte (gas would be paid for). Responsibilities would be taking Charlotte to sports, the park, her doctors appointments, and any other activities she may have. You MUST be First Aid and CPR certified and have a valid license with a clean driving history. Background checks will be mandatory and random drug tests. We have a German Shepherd service dog and 2 cats so you must be comfortable with animals. Also we have no room for hate in our home so no homophobia, racism, xenophobia, transphobia, etc..Serious inquiries only! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
