Full-Time Live-Out Nanny — New Hope, PA (Start: Nov 3, 2025)

The Family & Children

A warm, easy-going household with 3 children (ages 7, 5, 18 mos) and two small, friendly dogs seeks a calm, kind-but-confident professional to partner with parents as they welcome a new baby. Dad is a professional who works a lot through the week and prioritizes family life on the weekend. Mom is a stay-at-home parent who needs support through the week. You’ll care for:
 

• Child 1 (age 7)

• Child 2 (age 5)

• Child 3 (18 mos)

• Child 4 (baby on the way): Arriving soon—family will value newborn support and a smooth transition for everyone.

Home vibe: casual, lively, and loving—“mild chaos” at times, like many homes with multiple young kids. Two sweet dogs are part of the daily flow.
 

Schedule & Structure

• Hours: Monday–Friday 11:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m.

• Weekends: Occasional, pre-planned coverage as mutually agreed.

• Guarantee: 35 hours/week guaranteed.

• Commitment: 6–12 months.

• Live-out role.
   

Core Responsibilities

• Child-focused care for children—create a warm, structured day with age-appropriate activities.

• Plan & run enrichment: crafts, outdoor time, library/park outings; build a simple activity schedule and help find socialization opportunities for the toddler.

• Newborn support after baby arrives; collaborate on gentle routines and sibling transitions.

• School-age support: after-school routines, homework help

• Scheduling appointments as requested 

• Light household help (kid-related): children’s laundry, tidying play/meal areas, simple resets—especially during the first months postpartum.

• Occasional errands (e.g., quick grocery run, dry cleaning) with advance notice.

• Pet-friendly: comfortable with two small dogs; if the family travels without the nanny, they may request dog care during regular hours or honor guaranteed pay.

​

The family is looking for someone who is:

• Unflappable & nurturing: stays steady in a lively home, uses calm, clear communication.

• Kind yet firm: sets loving boundaries and keeps kids engaged, curious, and safe.

• Proactive: brings ideas for learning, play, and gentle risk-taking in appropriate, structured ways.

• Safe driver with a reliable, insured vehicle for on-duty use (mileage arrangements per family/agency policy).

• Excellent references and professional boundaries/confidentiality.

Compensation & Benefits

• Hourly $25-$37, DOE; overtime per applicable laws; guaranteed hours.

• Paid Time Off: 2 weeks' vacation (often aligned with family travel), 5 paid sick days

• Paid Holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Day After Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, plus up to 2 birthday days (yours and/or an immediate family member).
