Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency is assisting a family in the Dilworth neighborhood of Charlotte in finding a nanny for their two children, ages 21 months and 6 months old (currently). The nanny would typically be needed Monday through Friday, 8:00 am - 2:00 pm, with the hours moving to 40 hours in a few months.

The best nanny for this family would be warm, engaging, and genuinely passionate about caring for children. It is important to the family that the nanny finds joy in their position. Reliability and punctuality are essential, along with proactive communication about any schedule changes or time-off needs. The ideal nanny will have extensive experience with infants and toddlers, particularly managing two young children at once. A calm, attentive, and nurturing approach will help both children thrive in this loving home. The nanny should be highly safety-conscious and fully present with the children at all times, avoiding phone use or screen time when the children are awake.

The nanny should be proactive in researching and planning fun activities and outings for the children, scheduling and coordinating playdates, and encouraging socialization and learning opportunities.
