About Us: Hi! We’re C & K, two busy parents who work both in and out of the home. K is due in July, and we’re beyond excited to welcome our newest little bundle of joy! Once the baby arrives, we’re planning on having J ease into her role as a big sister while maintaining a fun, active routine.
Our family loves the outdoors—whether it’s going for walks, exploring parks, or simply getting fresh air, we prioritize daily outdoor time. We’d love a nanny who shares this mindset and can incorporate plenty of outdoor play and movement into J’s day.
We strive to create a warm, nurturing, and engaging home, where our nanny feels like a valued extension of our family. Open communication, reliability, and a proactive mindset are all qualities we truly appreciate.
About You: We’re looking for a warm, proactive nanny to be a part of our growing family! Right now, your focus will be on our energetic and curious 2-year-old, J—planning fun activities, getting outside in the mornings, preparing meals/snacks, and keeping her space tidy. Once our new baby arrives, you’ll gradually shift to newborn care while still engaging with J after preschool. Both parents will be home on leave initially, so you won’t be handling both kids solo right away!
