WHO/WHAT:
Five years. Two kids. One more on the way. Two growing careers. And apparently, no interest in slowing down. Through all of it, they've built their family around a pretty great philosophy: be brave enough to try but kind enough to help, love big and laugh often. And honestly, that tells you a lot about the childhood they're trying to create.

Their almost-four-year-old is curious, smart, and incredibly kind—the kind of kid who often seems older than she is. Her 18-month-old sister is equally bright and sweet, with a little more of a do-first-think-later approach to life. Add a newborn this winter, and yes, your hands will be full—but in the best, bubbles-on-the-driveway, baby-on-your-hip, somebody-is-probably-wearing-a-princess-dress kind of way. Both parents work full-time outside of the home, so they're looking for someone experienced enough to confidently take ownership of the children's days.

Their oldest attends preschool four mornings a week, giving the week some natural rhythm for more one-on-one time with the younger children. Mom will have about four months of maternity leave, giving everyone some time to settle into life with baby #3 together. Depending on the day, you might be packing everyone up for the playground, wandering the Children's Museum, swimming, tackling a craft project, cooking something together, building an obstacle course, or simply heading outside and seeing where everyone's imagination takes you.

A family vehicle is provided, and this family wants a nanny who is comfortable actually using it.
One thing you won't be doing? Handing everyone an iPad. This is a decidedly low-screen household—for the kids and the grown-ups caring for them. They want childhood to involve playing outside, coloring, dress-up, books, conversation, imagination, adventures, and learning how to be a person in the real world. They're looking for a nanny who genuinely enjoys being present with children and doesn't need a phone nearby to make it through an afternoon.

Their parenting style is nurturing with plenty of structure. They believe children thrive with routines, clear expectations, and adults who calmly show them what to do. Redirect. Explain. Model. They also believe kids should absolutely get to be kids while learning that they're part of a household—which might mean helping put toys away, carrying something to the table, or taking pride in accomplishing a little job themselves.

With three young children, keeping their world organized is also part of caring for them well. This family keeps a clean, organized home, prioritizes healthy foods, and appreciates someone who naturally notices when the diaper stash is dwindling or the art cabinet looks like a glitter bomb went off and simply takes care of it.…
