Nanny for a Family near West Paces Ferry
About The Position
A warm and welcoming family in the West Paces area is seeking an experienced, nurturing, and engaging nanny to care primarily for their 6-month-old infant, with occasional care for their 2.5-year-old after daycare. The baby is happy and easygoing, loves contact naps, and thrives with attentive, hands-on care. The family is looking for someone who can support developmental milestones through sensory play, reading, narration, and interactive engagement, as well as assist with establishing healthy sleep habits. Feeding support is especially important, as the baby can tire during bottle feeds and benefits from a patient caregiver who can provide pacing and encouragement. Familiarity with baby-led weaning is a plus. The toddler is in daycare most of the day and is sweet, a bit sassy, and initially shy but warms up with time. They do best with positive redirection and enjoy free play, arts and crafts, reading, and outdoor activities. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator who is organized, proactive, and adaptable, with a nurturing and inclusive approach. The family values safe sleep practices and overall safety standards. Comfort with swimming is required, and the family has a hypoallergenic Russian Blue cat in the home.
