About this nanny job

Nanny Needed: Full-Time Starting January 2025 for two children! We’re seeking a caring, energetic nanny for our two children: a 3.5-year-old boy and a 1.5-year-old girl. We’re relocating from Southern California to McLean, VA, and need someone to join our family starting January 20, 2025 (trial day the week of January 13). Position Details: • Hours: Guaranteed 40 hours/week, Monday–Friday (8:00 AM–4:00 PM or 9:00 AM–5:00 PM, this will change slightly once I start work). • Duration: January–August 2025, with adjustments based on school schedules. • Pay: $22–$26/hour DOE, with guaranteed pay during family vacations. Responsibilities: • Caring for our 3.5-year-old boy and 1.5-year-old girl. • Driving our son to/from activities (car provided with car seats or we can place car seats for your vehicle). • Planning and leading creative activities like sensory bins, art projects, and building forts (supplies provided). • Light tidying of toys and activity areas. About Us: • Relocation: We’re moving in January and will spend the first month settling in and creating routines. • School Plans: Our son will stay home until fall 2025, when he’ll start school. Our daughter will begin a program around age 2 (fall 2025). • Therapies: Our son attends speech therapy for a slight speech delay (he has met all his goals with speech therapy in the last few months yay! But we will be continuing for at least a few more months) What We’re Looking For: • Experience with young children, especially those with speech delays • A background in childhood education is a plus. • Passion for planning engaging, developmental activities. Additional Notes: • Living Situation: We’ll be living with maternal grandparents. Grandma may occasionally assist with childcare. • Meals: No meal prep required; all food and snacks are provided. Weekend Babysitting: -We’re also looking for a babysitter 1–2 times a month. If you’re only available on weekends, we’d still love to connect. We keep weekday and weekend roles separate to respect our nanny’s personal time. If interested, let us know if you’d like to speak with our current nanny to learn more about the kids and their routines!
