Intuitive Family Assistant Needed for Infant & Toddler in College Grove, TN - $30-$35 per hour! - Job #279

A family in College Grove is searching for an experienced Nanny/Family Assistant to provide part-time care for their toddler and 6 month old baby. The position will start in June and the ideal summer schedule will be Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 8am-5:30pm + half days on Fridays from 8am-12:30pm (33 guaranteed hours/week). In the fall, the position will transition to just Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays with 25 guaranteed hours per week. They are willing to discuss what the right candidate would need for the summer - they are ideally hoping to find someone who is interested in extra hours during the summer! There will also be opportunity for extra hours as well as traveling with them a couple of times per year on vacation. They are offering $30-$35 gross per hour, guaranteed hours, paid vacation, paid sick time, and paid holidays!

Their ideal candidate is kind, gentle, and skilled at being an extension of the parents. They describe their family and household as having a good flow, and they are seeking a candidate who can integrate themselves into the system they have in place. They are looking for someone who is proactive and takes initiative once they get a feel for how the family likes things done. They highly value a Nanny who creatively comes up with activities and various arts and crafts such as making a birthday card for a relative or a holiday themed craft. Their parenting style is very hands on, loving, calm, and low stress. They love Montessori, though they are not above having some plastic light up toys – it’s all about balance! They have family that live just a few doors down and love for their nanny to plan play dates with the cousins and walks to the neighborhood park. 

The job duties will include anything and everything related to the children and household including planning developmentally appropriate activities, family laundry, dishes, bottles, picking up online grocery order, organizing, and more. They have a regular house cleaner, so no deep cleaning involved! There is a lot of tag teaming involved, so interested candidates must be comfortable working alongside mom as well as being just as passionate about Family Assistant tasks as they are working with children. The parents truly like to spend quality time with their children, so helping maintain the background work is an important part of this job. They are looking for someone to hopefully grow with their family for years to come!
