WHO/WHAT: If you're the kind of nanny who gets excited about first words, keeps curious little hands safely exploring, and notices when the floor needs a quick sweep, you may be exactly who this family is hoping to find. — welcome, you might be exactly who this family has been waiting for. This warm, intentional Squirrel Hill family has welcomed their first baby and is searching for a loving, reliable, long-term nanny to become part of their team. 

Mom works from home full-time and needs long stretches of focused, uninterrupted work time. Dad is stepping into a CEO role and knows that to show up fully for his daughter at the end of the day, he needs support on the home front. They’re realistic, thoughtful parents who understand that the right nanny doesn’t just care for a baby — they help a household run smoothly. Your days will revolve around engaging, developmentally focused care for an active little one. You'll encourage new skills, spend plenty of time on the floor playing, head out for walks, read lots of books, cheer on every new milestone, and help create a predictable, loving routine. During nap time, you’ll jump in to help with bottle washing, baby and parent laundry, light tidying, vacuuming or sweeping, and simple dinner prep. Their friendly dog also plays a role in daily life. Early mornings matter here — Mom has a 6 a.m. gym class she’s quite committed to 😉 — so helping maintain her routine is part of the team effort. Flexibility, common sense, and clear communication are far more important than perfection. Grandma will be present to help a couple of days each month — while still guaranteeing your full 40 hours.

This family is dreaming big and long-term here. They hope to keep their child out of daycare until at least age 2.5, plan to space future kids a few years apart, and would love to find someone who grows with their family over time. Above all, they’re looking for a nanny who is genuinely invested — someone who shows up with heart, humor, and a team-player mindset.

THE IDEAL NANNY IS…warm, nurturing, and deeply dependable. You’re someone who shows up on time, keeps your word, and brings calm, loving energy into a home. You’re playful and creative with babies, but also grounded, observant, and respectful of routines. You’re a natural helper — someone who notices what needs to be done and steps in without being asked. You value teamwork, open communication, and trust. You understand how meaningful your role is in supporting working parents so they can show up as their best selves for their child. You’re patient, gentle, kind, and emotionally intuitive. If you’re looking for a long-term role in a collaborative household, where your work is truly valued and your presence genuinely matters, this family would love to meet you.
