Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency is assisting a family in the Olde Providence South neighborhood in finding a Part-Time Nanny for their two children, ages 2.5 and 4.5 years old. The nanny would typically be needed Monday – Thursday, 1:00pm – 5:00pm.

The best nanny for this family would be reliable, honest, and conscientious. Each day, the nanny would be responsible for picking the children up from pre-school (about 5 minutes away from the house), then supervising the children on the preschool playground after school (weather permitting) for about 30 minutes, then taking the children home. After the nanny arrives home with the children, they will need a snack, and their bookbags and lunchboxes will need to be cleaned and ready for the next day. The 2.5-year-old usually naps from 1:30pm - 3:00 pm, and the 4.5-year-old no longer takes a nap.

When at home, the children like to stay active and engaged in age-appropriate activities. Some of their favorite things to play are bouncing on the trampoline, riding bikes, doing arts and crafts, baking, and playing sports. They love playing Basketball, Tennis, Baseball, and Lacrosse in the backyard. The children have high energy, so being energetic, playing sports with the children, and keeping up with their energy levels is essential. There is a pool in the backyard, the nanny must be able to swim, and there must always be an adult with their eyes on the children at all times outside. Their 2.5-year-old has some stranger danger when warming up to people, so a nanny who is warm, patient, and comforting with the 2.5-year-old would be best.

Nanny Responsibilities Include:

• Meeting the daily scheduling needs of the children

• Engaging with the children on an age-appropriate level
