A little bit about us
I am looking for on-going experienced babysitter who has at least 5 years hands on experience with small children and/or is a mom to be our nanny for weekends (Sat & Sun) for our 18 month old son, about 3 to 5 hours per weekend day ( total of up to 10 hours per weekend) very flexible about when those hours need to occur. I would prefer 9-12:30 or 9-1pm pm for both days but flexible with what the babysitter can do. He naps once during the day from 12-3.
If the arrangement works out and the nanny wishes to continue we could arrange for continued help during the week in addition to the weekend on a monthly or weekly basis per the babysitter's availability and our needs. The responsibilities would be around playing with our son or supervising his play, helping to put away his toys, dressing him, changing diapers, helping with putting him to sleep during the day nap and some very light chores like assisting him with eating and with cleaning up after his meals only. The nanny is not responsible for our household chores, just those chores/duties directly tied to caring for our son. The nanny will also not be responsible for his laundry.
So to summarize what is needed for recurring weekends in general:
Diaper changes
Offering a bottle of milk or water
Playing with our son and teaching him things, reading to him
Helping to change him and get him dressed
helping him fall asleep (providing his binky, pacified, etc.)
We can be very flexible but most important is the right person:
CPR certified is preferred
First Aid certified/trained is preferred
Covid Vaccinated is preferred
Some background in working with children (toddlers experience preferred)

Weekend jobs suit nannies who want extra income alongside another job, students, and anyone who prefers a part-time schedule.
Types of Weekend Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities
Weekend nanny jobs range from a regular weekly shift to a handful of planned weekends a year. Some are a few hours on a Saturday afternoon, and others are a full day or an overnight.

How to Interview for Weekend Nanny Jobs
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:
- Which weekends and hours do you need, and is the schedule regular?
- How much notice will you give me for one-off weekends?
- Will I be at your home, or taking the children to activities and outings?
- How will I be paid, and by what day?
- What are the children's ages and routines?
Beyond asking these questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
