About the Family
A kind and welcoming family in Naperville is seeking an experienced, career nanny to join them in a long-term role caring for their three young children. They value warmth, reliability, and partnership, and are hoping to find someone who will grow with their family for years to come.
The family’s oldest attends preschool part-time Monday–Thursday mornings. Their middle child is an energetic and social little boy who is immunocompromised, so a nanny who is conscientious and health-minded is essential. Their youngest is a sweet, easygoing baby girl who is formula-fed. Both younger children are home full-time.
Mom works primarily from home, and Dad also works from home when not traveling or golfing. The household also includes two small, older dogs who need only minimal care (feeding twice daily).
The Ideal Nanny
This role is best suited for a professional, career nanny who brings both joy and structure to the home. The family is looking for a true partner—someone confident in their childcare approach, emotionally intelligent, and communicative, who can collaborate seamlessly with parents to support the children’s growth and routines.
