Full-Time Nanny in Hampstead, NC Needed

Location: Hampstead

Pay: $22-$28 per hour

Hours: 40 hours per week

Schedule: Monday-Thursday 8:15am - 4:30pm & Friday 8:15am to 4:00pm

Start Date: Monday, August 31st

Family Overview:

A busy, kind-hearted family is putting down roots in Hampstead and looking for the nanny who'll help make their new house feel like home. With a spirited 3 year old who loves drawing, music, and getting out into the world, and a giggly 14-month old still mastering the art of the nap, this family needs someone who brings big energy and bigger heart to every day. Both parents work from home (with plenty of dedicated spaces so you won’t interrupt each other), so you'll be a true partner in the day-to-day — dreaming up library trips and backyard adventures, chatting and reading with the kids all day long, and making sure bath time, nap time, and everything in between runs smoothly.

If you're the kind of nanny who doesn't wait to be told what to do next — who shows up ready to explore, connect, and make the day genuinely fun — this family would love to meet you. Oh, did we mention the backyard pool?!?

Toddler will start half-day preschool as soon as the family is settled and able to get her enrolled.
