Nanny

Job Summary

We are seeking a dedicated and energetic Nanny to provide loving, attentive, and professional care for children in a private home setting. The ideal candidate will be passionate about nurturing children's growth and development, ensuring their safety, and creating a positive environment that encourages learning and fun. This role offers an exciting opportunity to make a meaningful impact on children’s lives while working in a supportive and dynamic household.

About us

We're a family with two wonderful one-year-old boys looking for a warm, experienced nanny to join our home. We're especially interested in candidates with a preschool or early childhood education background — someone who sees this role as more than daily care, and brings real early-learning knowledge to how our boys spend their days.

Responsibilities

• Provide attentive childcare to two one-year old twin boys.
• Prepare nutritious meals and snacks suitable for children’s dietary needs, including meal planning and cooking.
• Assist with daily routines such as dressing, bathing, diapering, and nap schedules.
• Engage children in educational activities, playtime, arts and crafts, and age-appropriate teaching to foster development.
• Maintain a clean and organized environment through residential housekeeping tasks such as cleaning up after children and light laundry.
• Ensure safety by adhering to first aid and CPR protocols; respond promptly to emergencies or incidents.
• Collaborate with parents to communicate daily updates on children’s progress, health, and activities.

Skills

• Proven experience working with children across various age groups, especially infants and toddlers.
• Strong background in childcare, nannying, or private home childcare experience.
• Knowledge of preschool activities, daycare practices, and early childhood education techniques.
• Designing and leading simple, age-appropriate activities: sensory play, music and movement, reading/story time, motor-skill development
• Creating a light daily routine similar to a preschool structure (circle time, free play, outdoor time) so the boys build familiarity with structure ahead of actual preschool
• Introducing basic concepts through play: colors, shapes, animal sounds, simple words/signs
• Encouraging social skills between the twins (sharing, turn-taking, parallel play)
• Tracking developmental milestones and flagging any concerns to us
• Ability to handle multiple children simultaneously with patience and professionalism.
• Competence in meal preparation tailored to children's nutritional requirements.
• Certification in first aid and CPR is required; additional caregiving certifications are a plus.
