About Our Family:
Our daughter is 2.5 and a great, lovable kid. She currently goes to daycare full-time and really thrives in social environments. Our plan will be to send her back to daycare once a spot opens up in a Hinsdale classroom. We are also due with a baby girl in April 2023. We do not want to send her to daycare until she's much older. Dad has ALS and is going to be physically limited in the support he can provide to the baby. I will need a lot of help keeping her on a schedule. Caregiver will mainly have the baby while our oldest is in daycare!
Nanny Must be:
We would love someone who is able to construct schedules and activities that are age appropriate. Our oldest is happiest when she is busy and I expect our younger one will be the same way! We would love someone who is flexible to take on more when necessary because our schedules are not always standard 9-5 schedules. We would love the nanny to be independent and work independently but to solicit our feedback when necessary. We don't have any interest in micromanaging the nanny! I know some nannies are averse to working in homes with WFH parents but ours is a situation where it is really just out of necessity for my husband's condition and we don't expect or plan to interrupt nanny's day with the kids.
Someone that knows the area would be a bonus!
Second language is also a plus but not a requirement.
