Job description

Overview

A family is seeking a Part-Time Infant Nanny/Mother's Helper to support their home and care for their infant son.

This is a wonderful opportunity for someone who enjoys the balance of infant care and helping a household run smoothly. Approximately half of the role will focus on caring for the baby, while the remainder will involve light household support such as laundry, dishes, kitchen resets, and general tidying. The family has weekly housekeepers, so this is not a deep housekeeping position. They are looking for an extra set of hands who naturally notices what needs to be done and enjoys pitching in wherever needed.

Both parents are actively involved in their son's care. Mom is home throughout the day, and dad works from home part of the week, so the ideal candidate is comfortable working collaboratively in a shared-care environment. The home has a calm, peaceful atmosphere, and the family is hoping to find someone with a positive attitude, strong infant experience, and a flexible, team-oriented mindset.

The schedule guarantees 38 hours per week and is typically:

• Monday, Tuesday, and Friday: 9:00 AM–5:00 PM
• Thursday and Saturday: 1:00 PM–8:00 PM

The family is open to removing the regular Saturday requirement.

The family is hoping for a mid-July to early August start and is focused on finding someone who can grow with them over the coming years.

Responsibilities

• Provide attentive, nurturing care for an infant.
• Follow established feeding, nap, and developmental routines.
• Support the transition to solid foods using age-appropriate feeding practices.
• Prepare bottles and assist with feeding throughout the day.
• Engage the baby in developmentally appropriate play and activities.
• Complete baby-related laundry and maintain organized nursery spaces.
• Assist with daily household resets, including dishes, light kitchen cleanup, and tidying common areas.
• Help prepare fruits, vegetables, and simple meal components as needed.
• Collaborate with parents to create a calm, organized household environment.
• Occasionally assist with travel, overnights, or visits to the family's second home with advance notice.
• Comfortable interacting with and occasionally walking the family's friendly Mini Australian Shepherd is a plus.

Qualifications

• 5+ years professional experience caring for infants.
• Strong knowledge of infant development, feeding, sleep routines, and introducing solids.
• Warm, calm, and engaging personality.
• Adaptable with a "no job too big or too small" attitude.
• Comfortable working alongside hands-on parents.
• Highly reliable, organized, and proactive.
• Positive energy with a collaborative approach to family life.
• Comfortable in a dog-friendly home.

Requirements

• Infant CPR and First Aid certification.
• Legally authorized to work in the United States.
• Comfortable working in a fragrance-free home.
• Willingness to provide occasional overnight care and travel with advance notice.
• Outstanding professional references.

Salary and Benefits

• $35 per hour, depending on experience.
• Guaranteed 38 hours per week.
• Opportunity to grow with a warm, welcoming family seeking a long-term fit.
