What are the responsibilities and job description for the Full Time Nanny position at BABYSITTERS OF BOULDER LLC?
North Boulder family in Lake of the Pines seeking a compassionate, playful nanny for our two daughters. Hoping to meet someone seeking at least a one year commitment, with preference for 2 to 3 years of long-term employment.
Youngest is home full time and older daughter goes to school half-day. There is an opportunity to become a family assistant too, as both girls attend half-day school in August 2026. Family anticipates continuing to offer 40 hours per week and stable employment.
Family dynamic is calm and playful. Parents maintain a healthy and engaging routine for the girls, but avoid scheduling them for too many things. Hoping their home is a fun and peaceful place for the girls and for their nanny! Oldest seems to love costumes, theatre, and "putting on shows." Both girls love reading books and lots of time outdoors. Youngest seems pretty inclined to independent play, but does also love to snuggle. Family lives in the Lake of the Pines neighborhood right outside of Boulder proper, with plenty of trails, natural beauty, and even a private beach! During warm days the girls are happy as clams to spend hours there, exploring. Neighbor offers a neighborhood story time for kids once a week. It's a great place to be a kid!
Rate. $32 to 35 per hour. Nanny car available for your use.
