Description

A warm, busy household is seeking a nurturing, proactive, and upbeat part-time nanny to support a growing family with four young children (including a newborn arriving this summer). This role is perfect for someone who loves imaginative play, thrives in a collaborative environment, and enjoys bringing calm, structure, and a touch of magic to daily routines.

Starting in mid-September, this position offers flexible scheduling (2–3 days per week) and the opportunity to become a trusted, long-term part of a family’s rhythm during an exciting season of growth.

About the Role

This is a hands-on, engaging childcare position focused on creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for three young children during the day, with a newborn joining the mix. The caregiver will work alongside a parent who is often home, providing both practical support and encouragement for balance and self-care.

The family values clear communication, mutual respect, and a positive, team-oriented dynamic.

Responsibilities

• Provide attentive, loving care for young children, including a toddler and preschool-aged siblings
• Plan and engage in age-appropriate activities (imaginative play, crafts, outdoor time)
• Support daily routines, including meals, snacks, and nap/rest times
• Light housekeeping related to the children (tidying play areas, dishes, children’s laundry)
• Assist with meal prep for children (and occasional family support depending on schedule)
• Help with organization tasks such as toy or clothing rotation alongside a parent
• Encourage independence, creativity, and gentle transitions (no rushing!)
• Maintain a calm, structured, and positive environment

Ideal Candidate

• Experienced with infants and multiple young children
• Patient, warm, and intuitive, especially with children who take time to warm up
• Enjoys imaginative play, dress-up, and outdoor adventures
• Organized and proactive, with a “see it, help with it” mindset
• Comfortable working in a shared space with a work-from-home parent
• Supportive and encouraging—someone who naturally helps create balance in the home
• Reliable, communicative, and open to feedback
• CPR/First Aid certified (or willing to obtain)

What Sets This Role Apart

• A genuinely collaborative environment where you’re valued as part of the team
• Flexible scheduling that can work around other commitments
• A family that prioritizes respectful communication and clear expectations
• The opportunity to make a meaningful impact during a pivotal family transition
• A role that blends childcare with light household support, never just “watching the kids”
• Competitive hourly rate ($30–35/hour) with guaranteed hours and standard benefits

If you’re someone who brings calm energy, playful creativity, and a helping hand wherever it’s needed, this could be a truly special fit.
