Household dynamic:

• This loving, communicative family is seeking a rotational nanny to help support and nurture their adventurous, smart, and curious 11-month-old son! He is full of energy, eager to truly engage with people, and thrives in meaningful and respectful connections with his caregivers. He has a few food allergies, including milk, soy, and sesame, and is immunocompromised due to his ongoing breathing issues, requiring attentive care. This is a Christian family who loves to explore and create new experiences for their son. Other beloved members of this warm family are their two, trained and friendly cats.
• Both parents are actively involved in their son’s life and are regularly in and out of the home as they balance hands-on parenting with busy social and professional commitments and events as entrepreneurs. As dedicated parents, they are always open to suggestions, with their primary focus on creating the best environment for their son. The family splits their time between Florida from approximately October through April and Bethesda for the remainder of the year. They also love to travel both domestically and internationally, including regular visits to Portugal, and would love for their nanny to join them during travel. While recently international trips were postponed due to their son’s health, the family is excited to take their next family adventure as long as their son’s health allows. They are supported by another rotational nanny and bi-weekly cleaning staff in both locations. The family values fostering a comfortable and supportive household and sees their nanny as a vital part of the family.

Ideal candidate:

• This position is ideal for a true professional and consistent rotational nanny who absolutely loves children and finds joy in caring for a spirited and curious, growing toddler! Someone disciplined and gentle who respects young children with purposeful language will be a wonderful fit. The ideal candidate will be someone who can truly engage and keep up with their son’s energy while being highly emotionally attuned and able to respond and communicate meaningfully to his cues.
• The family is looking for someone independent and capable of maintaining their own day-to-day schedule, yet comfortable with both involved parents tagging along and actively engaging with their son as they are able. An ideal candidate would have the ability to help prepare their son for a pre-k interview in November for entry the following school year.
• They hope to work with a candidate who can be a true partner, confidently collaborating with them in supporting their son’s growth and development. A health-conscious candidate who is mindful of working with an immunocompromised child will be key! The perfect candidate will be reliable, who can stick to a daily plan while remaining flexible when things shift, and who is capable of making thoughtful, positive decisions with their son’s well-being in mind. The family would highly appreciate someone respectful and comfortable in a Christian-centered home where values and daily practices are woven into their daily life, such as praying at meals, attending church on Sundays, and having faith-centered family conversations.  
• Responsibilities include creating an environment for the child to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks, including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, organizing children’s areas, occasional errands, accompanying the child to Sunday school, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. Due to his current respiratory needs, the nanny must be fully comfortable administering a nebulizer twice a day and administering inhalers or medicine as needed. Their son has food allergies, so someone confident in managing food safety and preparing allergen-free meals will be critical! Although the parents view nannies as co-parents and are open to most suggestions, medical decisions will be made solely by the parents and medical professionals.

‍

Qualifications:

• 5 years of professional childcare experience
• Valid driver’s license
• Able to live-in while on duty and live-out while off duty
• Able to provide care as advised by a doctor and administer medicine (mainly nebulizer, iron and probiotics)
• Able to manage a child’s food allergies and maintain a safe food environment
• Willingness to wear a mask in airports and on airplanes to help protect the child’s compromised immune system
• No screens or phones use around the child (Smart Watch is recommended)
• Able to update Baby Connect on an ongoing basis when away from the child
• Comfortable working with hands-on parents in the home
• Comfortable with and respectful of Christianity being practiced in the home
