Hello Nanny! is partnering with a warm, Christian family in Fort Worth, Texas, who are seeking an experienced, caring part-time nanny for their 13-month-old daughter. The family values a nurturing, patient, and attentive caregiver who can support the child’s development, daily routines, and early learning in a safe and engaging environment.

 

The little one is curious, active, and full of personality. She is still learning to settle into her nap routine, sometimes resisting rest and only sleeping for short periods. The ideal caregiver will approach this with patience, consistency, and gentle guidance, helping the child feel secure while promoting healthy sleep habits and overall well-being.

 

The household also includes a friendly Rottweiler, who occasionally needs to be let outside, and two independent cats that require no care. This long-term, part-time role is perfect for a nanny who enjoys building a close partnership with parents, values open communication, and is passionate about fostering growth, curiosity, and happiness in young children.
