The Winograd Family

***We are looking for one other family to join us for a nanny share starting in February or March.***

Our current nanny will start with us in early February; she is a career nanny with 30+ years of experience with many children and grandchildren of her own. She was referred to us by a friend of a friend and is lovely. She has asked for ~2 years commitment, so we'd really like to be with another family through around EOY 2024 at minimum.

Our intention is to host at our home full-time, Monday through Friday. We are located in Ravenswood, a short walk east of the Ravenswood Metra stop. We own our single family home with a yard and we'll have dedicated areas of the home for children and nanny to be.

Hours will likely be 8am to 5:30pm, although we are willing to talk about expanding windows if necessary. One or both of us will likely be working from home two days a week, especially Mondays and/or Fridays.

Our daughter was born in September 2022, so we'd like a child relatively close in age for development and socialization. Families should feel comfortable with pets in the household. When we are not working from home, our dog will be at her own daycare. We also have two cats who just kind of do their own thing. (Because they're cats.)

Cost will be split evenly across families, but happy to have that conversation privately.

Any other questions, please reach out!
