The Family:

This loving family of three is seeking a fantastic nanny to partner with! 

Their son is a sweet, cheerful baby who is curious to explore the world

around him.  They are hoping to build a long-term relationship with a nanny

who will engage and nurture their son’s inquisitive mind, and who can

become a trusted, valued part of their family. 

Mom and dad will be returning to work full time in November (possibly

sooner).  Until that time, they can be somewhat flexible with the exact

hours.  This could look like starting with fewer hours or days and gradually

increasing to full time or offering date night or weekend care hours (if the

nanny is available for that) or potentially offering some family assisting

hours. There are no pets in the home.

The Job Description:

The nanny’s primary responsibility will be providing warm, attentive, and

developmentally appropriate care for their son. Job duties will include:

 Engaging him through reading, singing, conversation, floor play,

tummy time, sensory play, and other age-appropriate activities

 Taking him outside for walks and, as he gets older, to parks, libraries,

and other enriching activities 

 Following and helping us maintain consistent feeding, nap, and daily

routines (including transitioning to crib naps)

 Preparing and offering bottles, solid foods, and simple child meals as

appropriate 

 Cleaning bottles, pump parts, feeding supplies, and child dishes

 Changing diapers, dressing him, and attending to his general hygiene

 Keeping his nursery, play spaces, and feeding areas clean and

organized

 Washing, folding, and putting away their child’s laundry

 Restocking diapers, wipes, feeding supplies, and other child-related

items

 Maintaining a screen-free environment, following established pediatric

recommendations for his developmental stage

 Communicating clearly with us about his day, including sleep, feeding,

mood, activities, and any concerns

They are also interested in partnering with a nanny willing to take on some

household assisting support during naps or other available time (outside of

rest/meal breaks). This includes:

- Loading and unloading the dishwasher

- Family laundry

- Light kitchen and common-area tidying / organization

- Simple food preparation for the family

- Helping keep household and baby supplies organized and stocked

- Putting away groceries

Nanny Attributes/Qualifications/Requirements:

Their ideal nanny has a minimum of three years of relevant infant care

experience and has stellar references that are able to confirm

demonstrated warmth, reliability, sound judgment, hands-on infant

experience, and excellent communication skills. The nanny should possess

strong knowledge of infant development, age-appropriate activities, feeding

(including introducing solids), sleep, and safety.  The ability to speak

Chinese (Cantonese or Mandarin) would be a bonus but is not a

requirement.

The nanny should have a valid Driver’s License and a clean driving record. 

They should be up to date with all standard vaccinations including Covid +

booster, TDaP, and annual Influenza. The nanny must be current with their

CPR/First Aid Certification (or be willing to update asap), which would

ideally include hands-on/in-person training vs. a strictly online course.
