A little bit about us
My adventurous and happy 20 month old needs some peers to play with! He has a large facial birthmark that may need some explanation to others, but it doesn't bother him. He loves wheels on the bus, mickey and is starting to play pretend. Also, he is starting to see a speech therapist for a delay, but improves every week. Covid precautions are very important to us. We are looking for 2-3 days a week and are very flexible on days and timing. No expectations other than looking for peer interaction in small numbers.

A little bit about us
KC is a very happy and lovely child with some fairly serious developmental disabilities operating at a fifth or sixth grade level. She has a great attitude and is quite a ham, entertaining us often with her fashion shows. She is the daughter of my sister who has mild mental retardation but is very high functioning and works as a child care worker. KC is currently enrolled at a wonderful private school and is doing well but is not anywhere near her peers in her studies. Our family consists of my father (83), my sister (49), myself (51), and KC (14). We spend a lot of time together and I usually take KC on the weekends. KC and my sister Cindy live in their own house and my father and I live in another home about a mile away from each other. KC is very high functioning but needs to be taught life skills and independent living. She loves cooking with me and taking care of our plants but it would be wonderful if someone looking after her could help her develop other interests and improve her academic skills.
The individual looking after her would work 40 hours a week and help prepare meals, do the shopping, pick up and drop off KC from school and take KC on adventures and to cultural institutions. A car could be provided.

Warm family in McLean, VA seeking a highly experienced part-time evening nanny for our sweet 2-year-old daughter. Schedule: Friday, Saturday, and Monday, 5–8 PM (9 hours/week guaranteed). Start date: flexible/ASAP.
We’re looking for someone calm, attentive, and genuinely engaging—able to lead a smooth evening flow: play/reading, serving a simple toddler dinner or snack (with cleanup), and bath–pajamas–story wind-down. We’d also appreciate gentle potty-training support as appropriate (reminders, diaper/pull-up changes, and reinforcing our routine).
Light, shift-related household support only: resetting toys/play areas, child dishes, child laundry as needed, and a quick kitchen/common-area reset. No deep cleaning.
Ideal candidate brings toddler experience, excellent references, and dependable communication. CPR/First Aid preferred (or willingness to obtain). We offer a top-market hourly rate ($35–$45/hr, depending on experience) in a respectful, organized home environment, and we’ll request a background check.
