Part-Time After-School Nanny, Plymouth, MN

Family located in Plymouth, MN.

About Us

We are a dad and daughter duo with a sweet 6-year-old daughter. We love spending time together, whether we're going out to dinner, traveling around the U.S., or enjoying a relaxing evening at home. We love being active outdoors and recently celebrated her learning to ride her bike! At home, we enjoy talking about our day, playing games like Guess Who, swimming, and spending time together in the kitchen cooking and baking. We have a fun, close-knit relationship and enjoy making the most of both our everyday routines and new adventures together.

About You

We are looking for a compassionate, patient, and upbeat caregiver who brings a happy-go-lucky personality to the role. Our ideal nanny will encourage our daughter's independence by giving her opportunities to do things on her own while providing gentle guidance and support. We appreciate someone who can offer choices and engaging activities rather than simply asking what she wants to do. While we prefer a fun and positive approach over a strict or overly serious style, it's important that our nanny is also comfortable setting clear expectations and maintaining appropriate boundaries.

At least two years of childcare experience with children around our daughter's age is preferred. Familiarity with the Jewish faith and/or Hebrew language would be a wonderful bonus!
