[quote=Anonymous]What you are looking for, OP, is a self-described “Career Nanny”. They aren’t inexperienced and looking for a short, placeholder job before grad school. A career nanny is someone who has deliberately chosen to work as a nanny because they love helping parents raise their children. They are, very often, looking for a long-term position that will last until the youngest child starts FT school, or even beyond that. Career nannies may have college degrees or they may not. Regardless, they know how to help the children they care for flourish. Their experience means they have a lot of knowledge about child development, and new parents (all parents!) get a lot out of learning from their nannies. To those who “don’t understand” why a college degree is needed, if you want a nanny long-term, then you need someone who can not only cuddle a baby, but also can help older children develop emotionally /physically /intellectually.
