What is a Nanny?

As a nanny, you are a vital part of the family. You provide peace of mind to the family by being a comprehensive caregiver. First and foremost, you offer the kids a safe place to play and learn. Do you love playing games, creating crafts, and going on outings? Any opportunity where child-focused learning occurs is a welcome activity. Be sure to nurture the children with breakfast, lunch, and/or dinner, depending on your schedule. You can introduce manners during meals or activities to advance the childs social skills. Secondly, you support the parents by keeping the house tidy. Did you guys have a colossal playdate? Just make sure to clean up afterward. Some parents ask for help with meal preparation, light organization, and grocery shopping. At the end of the day, when the parents return home, they love to return to a household of calm kids and a tidy home.

Mom and Dad are grateful to be surrounded by supportive friends and family, and they want a nanny who is equally, if not more, supportive. Due to a compromised immune system, vaccination against COVID-19 and the flu is mandatory. In addition, the family performs extensive sterilization techniques to minimize the risk of infection.

The family is looking for a full-time medical nanny who will stay for at least two years.
