Sound Care Agency is currently looking for exceptional nannies to join our team of backup care nannies in the greater Seattle Area.
Here in our backup care department, we specialize in providing on demand, backup and temporary childcare to families in the greater Seattle Area. As a member of our backup care team, and an employee of Sound Care Agency, one day you could be filling in for a sick nanny, one day you could be caring for brand new infant twins and another day you could be watching school age kids at a fantastic hotel - the adventures are truly endless. And, we make it easy for you. Our process allows you to set your own schedule and only accept the jobs that fit within your own set parameters (from where the jobs are located to the number and ages of kids and more)!
The short of it is this, being a SCA back up care nanny allows you to dictate the when, the where and how often you work. It doesn’t get much better than that.
Are you comfortable and experienced balancing the needs of children of all ages? Are you a master fort builder, a singer of silly songs, a sidewalk chalk artist, a team player and an excellent communicator? Do you refer to yourself as a childcare professional extraordinaire? Do you enjoy having a flexible schedule and working in new environments? Yes, you say? Then Sound Care Agency is the place for you!
THE DETAILS
Location: Though we service several areas around the Puget Sound, our biggest need is for nannies able to work in and around Seattle and the East Side
Start Date: ASAP
Children: Our nannies can expect to care for 1-4 children in a home (or hotel) setting ranging in ages from newborn to 14 years old. We are currently not providing any sick care or special needs care
Hours: You choose! We have shifts available to fit every schedule (weekdays, weekends, mornings, evenings and everything in between). Our only scheduling requirement is that you work at least 2 shifts/month. Because you are in charge of your own schedule, you also never have to ask to take time off.
Compensation: $23-$25/hr (you will be hired as a W2 employee by Sound Care Agency) and unlimited overtime (paid at time and a half)
Duration: We are looking for nannies that can commit to us for at least 3 months -- and hopefully well beyond
Experience: Our nannies must have at least 2 years of professional childcare experience. We are looking for caregivers that are a shining example of what a true nanny is. We work with nannies that can not only meet the physical needs of the kids in their care (changing diapers, feeding, putting down for naps/sleep), but who come to the table with ideas on creative ways to engage with children.
