About the Family:

A thoughtful, intentional, and highly engaged family in Chicago, IL is seeking a professional, proactive, and developmentally-minded nanny to support their two young children in a temporary role lasting most likely through early Fall. The family places a strong emphasis on secure attachment, gentle caregiving, clear communication, and treating nannying as a respected profession.

Mom is currently a stay-at-home parent and will be involved and collaborative, particularly during the infant stage. Dad works primarily outside of the home with a hybrid schedule on Fridays. The family values teamwork, transparency, and mutual respect and is seeking a nanny who truly partners with them day-to-day.

The baby is currently breastfed with bottled milk provided by mom (breastfeeding will likely conclude in the coming months). He has mild reflux and benefits from a caregiver who is patient, attentive, and experienced with infant feeding, burping, tummy time, and gentle sleep support. The family prioritizes responsive care and secure attachment over rigid sleep training.

The toddler attends daycare full-time (9:00am–4:00pm) but will occasionally be home due to illness or closures. When home, the family hopes the nanny will provide enriching, hands-on experiences such as baking, museum outings, art projects, reading, and imaginative play.

• Confident supporting two young children when the toddler is home

This role is ideal for a nanny who does not take a “bare minimum” approach, but instead values professionalism, accountability, and high-quality care in a well-supported home.

About the Family

A thoughtful, warm, and highly engaged family in McLean, VA is seeking a confident, capable Family Assistant/Nanny to support their household and two young children. The family values structure, organization, and emotional warmth, and is looking for someone who can partner closely with them to keep both the children’s lives and the household running smoothly.

Their 8-year-old son is bright, sweet, and enthusiastic. He thrives with patience, predictability, and gentle structure—especially during transitions. He loves Legos, building projects, chess, video games, and creative problem-solving, and he is deeply affectionate with his younger sister. Social dynamics can be more challenging for him, but he has made tremendous progress over the past few years and does best with calm, confident adult guidance. He attends school from 8:00 am–3:30 pm and participates in after-school activities and enrichment programs such as chess club.

Their nearly 3-year-old daughter is a spirited, sweet, and strong-willed toddler with big emotions and a big personality. She attends a Montessori preschool and the occasionally after school activity or appointment.

Both parents work hybrid schedules. Dad works from home frequently but may travel for extended periods due to his work. Mom works a hybrid schedule with a mix of home and office days. The family also has two friendly large dogs—a laid-back golden retriever who loves attention and a younger, higher-energy lab.

Warm, Creative, and Emotionally Attuned Full-Time Nanny/House Manager in Corte Madera, California

About the Family:
A joyful, warm, and deeply engaged family in Corte Madera, CA is seeking a creative, emotionally attuned, and collaborative full-time nanny/house manager to support their vibrant 4-year-old son. Their child is imaginative, animated, and endlessly creative—he loves pretend play, art, sensory activities, tactile learning, and anything that allows him to express his curious, artistic spirit.

He also experiences moments of dysregulation, with strong flight/fright responses that show up more in structured school settings than 1:1. The family values a nanny who approaches big emotions with regulation, empathy, and the “Good Inside” mindset—helping him understand boundaries, develop coping skills, and move through his day with warmth and predictability. He currently attends a half-day program from 8:00am–12:00pm, though the family is evaluating whether he’ll remain half-day, shift to full-time, or take a temporary school break. Regardless, he thrives with consistent routines and steady support.

This family appreciates a nanny who is intellectually curious, OT-informed or eager to learn, and passionate about early childhood development. The home is low-screen, high-engagement, and collaborative. A golden retriever is part of the family, and pet care is a meaningful part of the role. Both parents work from home—with mom especially involved and supportive—so a nanny who enjoys close partnership will thrive here.

This is a live-out role. No travel is required.
