Experienced, Reliable Infant Nanny Needed for Mercer Island Family

#JR0201

DETAILS:

Location: North End of Mercer Island, WA

Ideal Start Date: April/May 2025 (ASAP)

Schedule: Monday through Friday, typically 40-45 hours

per week

Children: Three children ages newborn, 5, and 7 years old.

Compensation: $34-36/hr depending on experience and qualifications,

with guaranteed hours, paid time off, paid federal holidays, accrued paid

sick time, and overtime pay for any hours worked over 40 in a week. A

family car provided for use on the job.

One year minimum commitment is required, but longer term would

be ideal. The family anticipates needing nanny care until their

newborn goes to preschool.

The Family:

This loving family of four (soon to be five in May 2025!) is seeking a

proactive, caring nanny/household manager to partner with! By welcoming

a household manager into their home, this family hopes to keep their home

running smoothly as they welcome their new baby in May. They have two

children who attend elementary school. To note, the older children will

require more care over the summers and during any school breaks.

Mom primarily needs support with basic household management tasks

such as keeping rooms, kitchen, and other common spaces tidied and

organized, family laundry, and childcare. Meal prep/cooking help isn’t

required, but would be a bonus if that’s something their provider is

interested in. Child care would either be for the two older children or the

baby at any given time. To note, from February-September 2025 care will

only be needed for the older children (mom is on maternity leave during

that time).

The mother sees this as almost a co-parenting role where someone can

partner with her to divide and conquer whether that is household tasks, or

helping with the older children if she is busy with the baby.

The family has cleaners come in every week; there are no pets in the

home.
