Jovie
Seattle, WA, USA

Summary:
A bit about us: Nestled in the peaceful neighborhood of Madrona, our family is a dynamic blend of Detroit suburb charm and Southern warmth, having relocated to the vibrant city of Seattle for work. Our home is filled with laughter and love, centered around our precious 2-month-old baby boy who is the heartbeat of our household. As a family dedicated to health and self-care, we find joy in activities like CrossFit, skiing, and running. We hope you love cats too as we share our space with two sweet and cuddly feline family members, Zeus and Lilly, who add an extra layer of coziness to our home. If you love children, appreciate the serenity of a quiet neighborhood, and possess a keen eye for detail, you may just be the perfect addition to our family.

A bit about you: In our search for a part-time nanny to join our family, we are seeking a warm, attentive, and easygoing individual who can provide exceptional care for our baby boy. The ideal candidate brings at least 5 years of hands-on experience, is COVID-vaccinated with a current TDAP, and holds CPR/First Aid certification. Our son is a vivacious and communicative baby, reveling in play conversations, movement, and outdoor adventures. If you resonate with these qualities and are ready to become an integral part of our family, we can't wait to meet you.

Job Duties: As our part-time nanny, your primary focus will be providing devoted care to our baby boy on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. With mom working from home, your role will seamlessly align with her schedule, involving engaging our baby in enriching activities, getting outdoors for walks, fostering ample eye contact, play-talking, and heartwarming snuggles. Additional responsibilities include preparing and serving baby solids, later transitioning to kid-friendly meals and snacks. We value a caregiver who prioritizes safety and attentiveness, ensuring our son's well-being is paramount. Occasional light household duties may arise, such as addressing cat-related incidents or handling baby laundry on particularly messy days. Your presence will play a crucial role in our son's developmental milestones, incorporating Love Every toy sets, tummy time, crawling, teething toys, and regular reading sessions.

We eagerly anticipate welcoming a nurturing and experienced individual to our family, ensuring our baby boy continues to thrive in a loving and stimulating environment.
