Responsibilities and Duties
WHO/WHAT: If you’re drawn to simple days done really well—play, connection, and a whole lot of love—you’ll want to meet this family. This position might just feel like home to you. This warm, down-to-earth family is looking for a loving and reliable nanny to join them two days a week as they raise their happy, curious one-year-old son. Their home is tucked into a close-knit, walkable neighborhood. In fact, these parents have known many of their neighbors since childhood, and both sides of the family live nearby. It’s the kind of place where people stay, put down roots, and build something meaningful—and they’re hoping to find a nanny who wants to do the same.
Both parents work from home (with dedicated office spaces), and they’ve found a rhythm that balances structure with flexibility. Dad is thoughtful and detail-oriented, while Mom brings a calm, steady presence to the home. Together, they value consistency, communication, and creating a peaceful, supportive environment—for their son and their nanny. Their little guy is right where the action is—on the move, curious about everything, and happiest when he’s engaged and exploring. He loves music (Mickey Mouse, Daniel Tiger, Baby Einstein are current favorites), enjoys walks around the neighborhood, and is starting to discover the joy of new foods. He thrives with routines but also rolls with the day - he’s in that magical stage where curiosity leads the way and you get a front-row seat to it all. Your days will revolve around caring for and engaging with him—playing, reading, singing, getting outside, and supporting his development in a hands-on, present way. You won’t just fill the day—you’ll shape it. During nap time, you’ll help with child-related tasks like his laundry, washing bottles, and keeping his spaces tidy. Nothing overwhelming—just the kind of support that keeps the day running smoothly. As the relationship grows, the family would love for you to venture out together—think library story time, the zoo, and eventually even pool days with grandparents (swimming comfort is a big plus!).
They currently have a beloved nanny one day a week, grandparents the other days, and are hoping to build a small, supportive team around their son. Ultimately, they’re looking for someone who wants to grow with their family over the next several years as they potentially welcome another child. If you’re looking for a role that feels steady, genuine, and rooted in connection—this one is something special.
THE IDEAL NANNY IS…CONFIDENTLY ENGAGING. You don’t wait to be told what to do—you naturally step in, get on the floor, and create meaningful, playful moments throughout the day. Experienced with little ones, you’re attentive, interactive, and truly enjoy being part of a child’s world. You’re reliable, punctual, and communicate clearly, bringing both professionalism and warmth into the home. You have strong instincts, good common sense, and a calm, steady presence that parents trust. Organized yet flexible, you appreciate a routine but can pivot when needed. Most importantly, you’re someone who values building a respectful, long-term relationship with a family and takes pride in being a consistent, loving presence in a child’s life.
