WHO/WHAT: Do you find purpose in the beautifully unscripted moments of childhood — the belly laughs, the tiny hands reaching for yours, the imaginative worlds built from crayons, golf clubs, dress-up bins, and Disney soundtracks? If so… welcome home. You may have just found the family whose lives you’ll profoundly shape — and who will adore you right back. This joyful, silly, deeply connected family is seeking an experienced, patient, and playful nanny four days per week. Their 3.5-year-old daughter, who has Spina Bifida, is bright, engaging, and full of old-soul charm. She walks with a walker, attends preschool and physical therapy in the mornings, and thrives with someone strong, patient, and encouraging — someone who celebrates small victories and supports independence with warmth and intention. Her 1.5-year-old brother is a snuggly, golf-club-carrying little adventurer who loves crafts, books, and being right in the middle of the fun.

Mom works part-time from home running the family foundation and is wonderfully communicative and collaborative. This is a true team role, with shared responsibilities and steady support. No medical background needed — just a willing, open-hearted learner for simple routines. Their ranch-style home is warm and joyful, with a fenced yard, an easygoing senior dog, and a pool (so strong swimming skills are essential). Household tasks include children’s laundry, tidying, vacuuming, light dinner prep, and easy pet care.

Above all, they’re hoping to find someone who feels called to meaningful work — someone who will nurture their daughter’s growing independence, delight in their sweet son, and see this not as “special needs care” but as the privilege of helping two extraordinary children thrive. They’re dreaming of a nanny who doesn’t just stay for a season, but for a chapter — someone who can walk alongside their children for the next five-plus years as they grow, and as the family welcomes another little one down the road.

THE IDEAL NANNY IS…A little bit Mary Poppins, a little bit modern-day magic — someone who shows up with brightness, creativity, and a wide-open heart.

You are:

• Loving and intuitive, tuning into what each child needs in the moment.
• Playful and imaginative, ready for dance parties, chalk art, giggles, and endless questions.
• Strong and steady, physically confident when assisting with transfers, and emotionally patient as independence builds.
• A true teammate, communicating openly and partnering naturally with Mom.
• Curious and teachable, willing to learn catheterization with calm and care.
• Reliable and invested, hoping to grow with a family who will cherish you for years.

You don’t need perfection — just presence.

Not medical experience — just willingness.

Not superhuman strength — just a heart that sees meaning in this work.

If the idea of helping two wonderful little humans grow with confidence, joy, and independence lights something inside you… you might be exactly who they’re looking for.
