A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Colleen Jones I’m 20 years old and am a sophomore at Penn State University. I’m in the business school and am double majoring in finance and risk management with a minor in International Business. I’m very hardworking, driven, and intrinsically motivated to be the best I can be. I love helping others and especially love helping children. I’m very experienced and previously had a full time nanny for three consecutive years. I have a great relationship with that family and still see them often. I come from a family of seven children, so I’ve always been around kids growing up as well. Nannying really is second nature to me and I would love to broaden my experience to a new place with new families outside of State College!

A little bit about me

Hi everyone! :)
My name is Laura Phoebe (though most call me Phoebe) and I am very interested in becoming your live-in nanny. I am bright and outgoing and always have a smile on my face! I love to work with kids and believe that there is so much to learn from them even as they are learning about the world themselves. I am a fast learner and am very willing to do so in regards to any aspect of your child’s care. I have multiple years of experience working in childcare and have found it comes fairly easily to me. I love to cook and am always looking for new ways to incorporate healthy options into everyday meals. I am a cautious driver with a valid drivers license. I am an organized person who takes pride in her work. Since I am a young woman, I have energy to spare. I believe given the chance (at least for a virtual interview), I can prove to you that I can be the best nanny you will ever have and treat your sweet children like they are my own family!
**I am also fully vaccinated!

Nearby cities to find a special needs nanny

What are the responsibilities of a nanny?

Nanny responsibilities range from childcare tasks to assisting with household duties. The exact job description depends on the specific needs of the family. For a special needs nanny, duties might also include providing tailored care and implementing therapeutic activities. Activities can be tailored to the child's interests and abilities. For instance, exploring sensory-friendly exhibits at the Children's Museum of the Arts for a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Check out our guide for a deeper dive into nanny responsibilities.

How should I conduct a nanny interview?

When you find a nanny in New York, the interview process is crucial. Prepare in advance by creating a list of nanny interview questions tailored to your family's needs. These may touch on their experience with special needs children, their training, and their ability to handle potential emergency situations. Remember, it's essential to have a conversation, not just a Q&A session. Here's how to prepare for a nanny interview.

What is a nanny contract and why do I need one?

A nanny contract is an agreement between you and your nanny that outlines key details such as hours, salary, and job duties. It helps set clear expectations and can help prevent misunderstandings down the road. It's also a great place to lay out specifics about caring for children with special needs. For a closer look at the details, see our guide on nanny contracts.

What should I know about nanny payroll and taxes?

Nannies are considered household employees, which means you're responsible for withholding taxes from their paycheck and paying employer taxes. This process can be complex, but a nanny payroll service can help simplify it.

How do I ensure a safe and secure hire with background checks?

Background checks are a vital step in the hiring process. They can provide peace of mind about your potential nanny's criminal history, driving records, and other vital information. It's always wise to inform candidates in advance that you will be conducting a background check. You can learn more about our approach to background checks here.

How do I decide between a part-time, full-time, or summer nanny?

Your decision will depend on your family's needs and schedule. A full-time nanny often works 40 hours a week, while a part-time nanny might work less than that. A summer nanny is typically hired for a set period during the summer break. You might find that one type of arrangement better fits your family's requirements. To help you navigate these choices, we've prepared a guide detailing the costs associated with each type of nanny in New York.
