Nanny Job Details

Job ID: 5092

Please describe your family:
We are two professionals that have decided to start our family after our careers. Since we are \"older\" for a first child, we are a bit more specific in what we are looking for in a nanny. We have had a chance to enjoy our lives without children and want to bring that perspective to our lives with children. We are firm believers in doing as we have always done...just with another little person:) We want our daughter to experience a full life with a great education and have access to all the tools to make her a happy, healthy and successful individual. She is surrounded by people who love her dearly. We do not have any immediate family in the state, so visits are frequent and encouraged.

Please describe why you are looking for a nanny:
We need a full time (4 day work week) though 36-40ish hours in the four days. She must have experience and be reliable. We would like to avoid anyone whois using this job as a stepping stone to another career. Stability is paramount. We want someone who will help raise our child to be a responsible, fun, confident, high functioning and an extremely loved individual. We want a laid back person but firm in discipline and standards. We hope this person is diverse and has many life experiences too.
