In House Nanny Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency is assisting a family in the South Park area (currently in a rental home, looking to purchase a home in Dilworth, Myers Park, or Elizabeth) in finding a long term Full-Time nanny for their children, ages two years old and 3 months old. The nanny would typically be needed Monday-Friday, 8:00 am-6:00 pm. It is important that the nanny is flexible to travel with the family on a few vacations a year and occasionally babysit.

The ideal nanny is an experienced, proactive, warm, and nurturing caregiver. Nanny should have substantial experience in caring for young children and babies, and have a proven track record for caring for babies and toddlers together. The nanny should be confident balancing the needs of both children, managing overlapping feeding and nap schedules, and providing attentive and loving care while encouraging age-appropriate development both in and out of the house.

A strong understanding of infant care, safe-sleep practices, early childhood development, montessori-inspired play, potty training, and baby led weaning is preferred. NCS experience or comparable hands-on infant experience is ideal. Knowing the latest baby gear and products is a plus.

The family highly values a thoughtful balance of enriching activities and independent play. Typical days include parks, music classes, art classes, museums, play gyms, reading, singing, crafts, and sensory activities.The nanny will collaborate with a stay-at-home mom who remains involved throughout the day. However, the nanny is expected to regularly care for both children simultaneously when the mom is unavailable.

The older child will be going to a preschool three mornings a week starting in late August. Pick up and drop off will be handled by the parents or nanny. While the older child is in school, the nanny should provide dedicated one-on-one time with the baby.

• Meeting daily needs of the children (bottle feeding, meals, changing, napping, rocking)
