A loving family residing in Lakeview is seeking a dedicated and proactive nanny for their two young daughters, ages 3 years and 20 months. With a new baby girl due in early September, the family emphasizes teamwork, as the new baby will have a separate nanny. The position requires 45-50 hours per week, from Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with occasional weekend hours offered but not mandatory. Travel with the family 1-2 times per year is a plus but not required. The family has two small dogs needing only basic care. No dietary restrictions are present, and a meal service is used for much of the food prep. The family provides a car for job use, and street parking is available. The father works outside the home while the mother will be in and out during the day. The children's school schedule is from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
The ideal candidate will be a proactive, positive, and energetic individual with excellent communication skills, a solid understanding of developmental milestones, and the ability to navigate city living. Responsibilities include children's laundry, bed linens, changing sheets, tidying dishes and the kitchen, basic home organization (with a housekeeper visiting twice a week), and simple meal prep when needed. Potty-training has not yet begun, and screen time is very limited during the day. This role requires someone who can work well with another nanny in the home, is flexible, and can start as soon as possible.
