Responsibilities and Duties
- WHO/WHAT: One of our sweet return families is searching for another Mary Poppins, as their beloved nanny will be transitioning from their family this May. Ideally, you'll able to fill the role for AT LEAST the next few years. This precious family of soon-to-be-five is hoping for a kind, loving, and energetic team player who can expertly handle a zooming four-year-old, toddler, and a new baby! While Dad works mostly from home in a private basement office, Mom will be in and out running errands, completing projects, and managing the household alongside the nanny. She is hoping for someone who can seamlessly handle an infant and toddler solo while big brother is at school. This job will be a mix of collaborating with parents while also taking charge and using your extensive knowledge and experience to handle each day on your own with ease. Their darling 4-year-old is a typical preschooler with spunky energy, big emotions, and a zest for anything dinos, diggers, animals, and bugs! He is in school most days of the week and will be full-time in the fall. The middle brother is a typical, joyous toddler who is just happy to be held and do whatever his big bro is doing! You'll help with feedings, keeping him on a nap schedule, and incorporating age-appropriate play. Once the littlest brother has arrived, care will primarily be focused on the younger two while tag teaming with Mom. During the summer months, the 4-year-old will be home as well, but the family plans on incorporating another part-time nanny to help with these three under four. For the two younger fellows, outings and activities are encouraged, though the family is hoping to balance outings with days at home in one of their many playrooms, indoor movie theater, large backyard, or in-ground pool! This family would love a nanny who realizes that their role within their home is to care for and love their boys with their whole heart, taking each day at a time and enjoying all the little things together. This family would also appreciate help with the kid's laundry and maintaining their home with simple household tasks like tossing dishes in the dishwasher, vacuuming/sweeping, basic meal prep care for kids, and letting their two dogs out into the yard and feeding them. You must have a safe vehicle and clean driving record for activities and outings. Flexibility and communication will be top priorities in this role; while both parents will do their best to share their schedule needs ahead of time, a nanny who is fluid and easygoing to adapt to changes would work best here. Mom and Dad are social butterflies and enjoy being able to frequent local concerts, Steeler games, or just a night out, so occasional date night/weekend availability is important. This family MUST also have a nanny who is willing to travel (flying private) with them for planned-in-advance trips and vacations as they frequent locations such as Florida, Nashville, and Seven Springs. They will happily compensate for all aspects of each trip. Priority will be given to candidates with education backgrounds and extensive experience working with multiple children in an in-home setting.
The Ideal Nanny An experienced career nanny, an energetic team player, and a trustworthy ally, you have had years working for professional families and are in pursuit of your next long-term family. Caring for multiple children at a time is your cup of tea, and you've worked with numerous infant-toddler combos in the past. You are social and personable and are able to celebrate your working family's accomplishments, joys, and successes with them. You have the travel bug, are a frequent flier, and have a valid passport ready to go. You're reliable, helpful, and flexible, able to give your all to your employers while pursuing the best interests of their precious kids. You're able to spot what needs to be done around the house, using your time wisely during the day to help wash some dishes, switch up the laundry, wipe down the counters, etc. Both parents look forward to a fantastic working relationship with their nanny, allowing him/her into their home and hearts with abandon! They would love to welcome their nanny for many years to come, living, learning, and adapting together as the years change. There's even potential for this position to evolve into a household manager/family assistant role as the kids grow older. We believe that the nanny working for this family will truly enjoy and thrive together with them and will experience the rewards that a fulfilling nanny career can provide!
