The Family:

If you are a warm, thoughtful caregiver who genuinely enjoys the infant stage and would love to build a meaningful, long-term relationship with a kind and collaborative family, this may be the opportunity you have been waiting for. Located in Freeland on beautiful Whidbey Island, this position offers the opportunity to care for one infant in a peaceful five-acre setting while partnering with parents who sincerely value their nanny's role in their son's life. This active family enjoys exercising, spending time outdoors, tending their garden, playing games, traveling, and occasionally heading out for a night on the town. They also visit Canada regularly to spend time with extended family. One parent is a physician who plays an active role in supporting Whidbey Island's healthcare community. The other is an engineer who works off-island several days each week and from home approximately two days per week. The nanny and child will have their own space while the parent is working remotely. The family also includes two adult children in college from a previous marriage, and their visits home are always a highlight. As a blended and diverse family, the parents have created an accepting home centered around kindness, respect, open communication, and thoughtful discussion. The family shares its home with an energetic but exceptionally gentle and lovable Aussiedoodle. If the dog and nanny develop a comfortable relationship, the dog may remain home approximately two days per week. About Their Son The family's son will be approximately three months old when the position begins. His days will initially center around feeding, sleeping, awake time, and beginning to engage with the people and environment around him. The family hopes to find a caregiver who loves working with infants and understands the importance of consistency, observation, responsiveness, and nurturing interaction during these early months. Maintaining a flexible but dependable rhythm for feedings, naps, and awake time will be an important part of the position. The nanny will also read, sing, play, spend time outside, introduce age-appropriate developmental activities, and support each new milestone as the child grows. The family would appreciate a caregiver who proactively shares photos, milestones, observations, and brief updates so they can remain connected to their son's day. Their Home & Whidbey Island The family lives on a quiet five-acre property near town, providing a peaceful environment with abundant opportunities for fresh air, walks, and outdoor exploration. One parent has lived on Whidbey Island for approximately 20 years, while the other has called the island home for six. They enjoy exploring its trails and beaches, and the family also enjoys salmon fishing. Beyond the island's natural beauty, the family values its strong sense of community and exceptionally kind people. Their home offers parking and dedicated space for the nanny and child. Public transportation is also available approximately one-half mile away. Their Parenting Style The family describes its parenting approach as gentle while recognizing the importance of appropriate structure and boundaries. They believe children should receive abundant warmth, affection, encouragement, and opportunities to safely explore. As their son grows, they want him to learn through play and interaction with his environment while having thoughtful guardrails in place to keep him safe. The family hopes to establish a collaborative relationship with a nanny who respects their wishes as parents while feeling comfortable sharing professional observations, ideas, and concerns. The Opportunity This is an intentionally childcare-focused position centered on providing exceptional care for one infant in a safe, nurturing, and developmentally supportive environment. The child's days will initially include feedings, naps, diaper changes, tummy time, reading, singing, outdoor walks, and age-appropriate developmental play. As he grows, the nanny will introduce new experiences that support his physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and language development. The nanny will record important details such as feedings and diaper changes in a notebook or app and communicate openly with the parents regarding the child's routine, development, and well-being. As the child gets older, the position may expand to include driving him to parks, playgroups, appointments, and other age-appropriate activities. The family and nanny will discuss the timing and expectations before driving becomes a regular responsibility. This is not a household assistant position. The nanny will clean up after themselves and the child, wash bottles and child-related dishes, and maintain his immediate care and play spaces. Once he begins eating solid foods, the family plans to have his food prepared for the nanny to serve. General family housekeeping, household management, errands, and unrelated household responsibilities are not part of the role. The overwhelming majority of each day should be dedicated to the child's care and development.

Responsibilities:

The nanny's primary responsibility will be providing exceptional, attentive care for one infant.

Responsibilities include:

Providing loving, responsive, and age-appropriate care Maintaining a flexible but consistent routine for feedings, naps, awake time, and activities Preparing, offering, and cleaning bottles Recording feedings, diaper changes, naps, and other important information in a notebook or app Changing diapers and attending to the child's daily hygiene needs Reading, singing, talking, playing, and engaging with the child Planning and introducing age-appropriate developmental activities Supporting tummy time, sensory exploration, motor development, and emerging milestones Spending time outdoors and taking walks around the family's property Following the family's routines and gently structured parenting approach Observing the child's development and communicating relevant progress or concerns Sharing occasional photos, milestones, and brief updates Serving food prepared by the family once the child begins eating solids Cleaning bottles, child-related dishes, and the child's eating area Tidying toys and maintaining clean, organized childcare spaces Cleaning up after the child and yourself during working hours Maintaining open and collaborative communication with the parents Potentially driving the child to approved activities and appointments as he grows The Ideal Candidate The family is searching for a warm and highly capable caregiver who loves working with infants and is excited about building a long-term relationship with one family. They are open to candidates from several professional backgrounds, including experienced infant nannies, early childhood educators, and highly experienced caregivers with substantial hands-on infant experience. While experience is important, personality fit is the family's highest priority.

Their ideal nanny is:

Warm, nurturing, and affectionate Calm, patient, and emotionally steady Energetic and naturally engaged with infants Observant and responsive to a baby's cues Knowledgeable about infant development and age-appropriate activities Dependable, punctual, and consistent Intelligent and capable of exercising sound judgment Proactive about communicating updates and observations Comfortable collaborating closely with parents Respectful of the parents' preferences and role as primary caregivers Able to work independently while maintaining open communication Comfortable working in a home where a parent may be present approximately two days per week Comfortable working in a home with a friendly, energetic dog Interested in building a lasting relationship with one family Requirements Qualified candidates should possess: A minimum of three years of professional childcare experience; five or more years is preferred At least one to two years of recent infant-care experience Current Infant/Child CPR and First Aid certification, or the ability to obtain certification before employment Newborn Care Specialist training is preferred but not required for candidates with strong comparable infant experience A valid driver's license with an excellent driving record Access to a safe and reliable vehicle with appropriate insurance if personal-vehicle use becomes necessary Fluency in English and excellent verbal and written communication skills Legal authorization to work in the United States A minimum of three outstanding professional references The ability to successfully pass a comprehensive background check A commitment to professionalism, confidentiality, reliability, and punctuality A willingness to work as a legal W-2 household employee Up-to-date COVID-19, influenza, MMR, and Tdap vaccinations Flexibility to occasionally work a later evening with advance notice Why We Think You'll Love This Opportunity This position offers the chance to become an important part of one child's life from infancy while partnering with thoughtful parents who value kindness, communication, and collaboration. The four-day schedule provides 35 guaranteed hours while preserving a consistent three-day weekend.

Combined with competitive compensation, excellent benefits, minimal household responsibilities, a peaceful Whidbey Island setting, and the opportunity to build a lasting relationship with an appreciative family, this position offers exceptional long-term stability and professional fulfillment.
