Not OP but if you just copy and paste a sentence from the ad onto Google you will find it.

Let me just start out by saying.. if you are looking for a 9 - 5 nanny position, are a primadona, have issues with respecting others, text and drive, text on the beach, takes selfies 24*7, read no further.

I have two wonderful girls who can be singing and dancing together one moment and in a wrestling match the next. My girls are messy, busy, bouncing off the walls, but mostly funny and wonderful. I am looking for someone from mid-May through 1st week in September.

My girls are super busy, sometimes they actually need to be in two places at one time, I need someone who can read my mind, know which one is more important and make that call. The kids sail, swim, play tennis, hockey and dance, I need you to love every one of those activities.
I can be a tad difficult to work for. I'm loud, always multi-tasking, completely disorganized, I work from home, so you the pleasure of being in my presence all day long and, you get to pretend to like me.

If you cannot multi-task, communicate clearly (you won't offend me), don't bother replying.
If you are the type who doesn't notice crumbs on the table, sand on the floor, wet suits in the car, skip to the next post, because these are deal breakers they put me over the edge.

I have all sorts of theories on how to stack my dishwasher, fold laundry and if you are judgmental about Ritalin for ADHD, or ice cream before dinner, again, deal break city.

This is a live-in situation if you do not have housing already. You do get a room and your own bathroom in our home. You will get the largest guest bedroom in the house. However, we do sometimes have family visit and I may need you to move to a smaller bedroom while they are here (at the most two weeks). If this upsets you, don't email me. We have central air, wifi, and cable, you will have your own tv and plenty of down-time.

If you can cook, all the better, otherwise, I will teach you all sorts of things about pasta. I need someone who can cook two different types of macaroni and cheese at exactly the same time and also be able to open a can of tuna and remember which pot it goes in.

I am not looking for Super nanny, or anyone who wants this job because they will love my kids as if they are their own. I am looking for someone who will keep my children happy (though no child is ever always happy), keep them safe, get them to their summer activities, play with them on the beach. Playing on the beach means actually playing with them, not posting selfies and updating Instagram while a shark is about to chew off their leg or my 9 year old is ingesting sand. I need a team player. I need someone to back me up when it comes to remembering when the library books are due, whether we are running low on milk and dear lord, where is that second sneaker??

I do expect that when the children are at camp or an activity that you will want to go get coffee or sit on the beach, that's fine. However, if there is a 3 hour gap, I need help, offer to throw a load of laundry in, put those dishes in the dishwasher, clean up those beach towels that have been sitting for three days.

One a serious note:
-I need you to have a valid clean driver's license and record
- I need you to be able to swim, CPR certified is a big plus
- My hours vary so does your schedule, a typical day is 8 (8:30) -- 3:30 (4). Occasionally, I will need you to sit an evening or two. This will be communicated and scheduled at least 3 days in advance
- You may take a secondary job working evenings, if this interests you, I can help you find a job
- You will have access to a personal vehicle while caring for the girls. For after hour activities, you need your own car.
- You will need to provide 3 credible references
- You like children
- We have a dog that we adore, we will hope that you adore her too!

Please know, I am relatively easy going, however, I will not be walked over by someone who is coming here for a summer vacation. If you go out with your friends until 1 a.m., have at it. But you better be ready and up in the morning and look like you are ready to run a marathon. What you do on your own time is your business but don't let it affect mine.

Where did you find this, OP? Or is it your creative writing for the week?

There are basically two shifts available. Late Mornings/early afternoons and evenings.

The first shift would be from 9 or 10am until around 12:45pm. You would feed the children breakfast and get them ready for school. Then you will use the provided mini-van to drive the children to school. Then just return the van to the home and your shift is over. This shift is necessary Monday through Friday.

The second shift will arrive at the house at 2:00pm and get the mini-van. Then pick up the children from their school and bring them home. Deliver the children to any after school activities (non at this time). I am usually home by 9pm but occasionally I may be running early or late. Sitter should be available until 10 or 11pm if needed. This shift is necessary Monday, Wednesday and Friday. (their mom picks them up from school on Tuesdays and Thursdays and keeps them until I get home.

There is a Saturday Shift available as well. This shift is from 9 or 10am until 9 or 10pm. It can be worked all day by one sitter or split into two shifts if there are two sitters willing to share it.

Sundays are optional. Their mom gets them every other Sunday so this shift would only be necessary every other Sunday.

You can choose between the first shift, second shift and/or Saturday shift. I don't care just as long as all shifts are covered.

Qualified and interested individuals should email me with the following information:

- Resume and work/experience history
- Name, Phone and contact info
- Recent Photograph if possible

Qualified individuals will be called in for an interview. Interviews can take place late in the evening or on Sunday at the Oak Lawn home. I may also be able to interview you in the afternoons at my downtown office if that is more convenient for you. If you are hired, you may start as soon as you can.

Good Luck,

Mike

**I have a spare bedroom and I would consider a live in nanny position for the right person. When I get home, the babysitter leaves and I cannot even leave the house to run an errand because I cannot leave the children alone in the house. Just having someone else there will be a big relief. You will be helping me as much as I am helping you. In this case your compensation will be room and board plus a weekly salary. We will come to an agreement on the hours you work and the days and times you want off. This will determine your salary. Right now their mom gets them on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2-8:30 Saturdays from 6-8:30 and every other sunday from 10-8:30 so those are times when your services will not be necessary. If you require another day off or some other time, just let me know and we will work it out. Also, in the next couple months their mom and I will be coming to an agreement which allows them several days overnight at their moms per week, so the workload will be much less then. Qualified individual will be given one nice size bedroom with new queen size bed, a closet, a dresser and a nightstand. Access to a bathroom (shared with the kids), Access to a refrigerator and kitchen (shared with the family). When you cook for the children you may cook enough for yourself as well so food is also provided as long as it is something that the children eat on a regular basis.

Why take custody away from the mom if you aren't parenting them in any way? There is a reason this guy is divorced.

My girls are super busy, sometimes they actually need to be in two places at one time,

Then you need to have two people taking girls to different places, as a nanny can only be in one place at one time.

I need someone who can read my mind,

Mindreading isn't something that nannies learn to do. Anticipating needs can be expected if there's a consistent schedule.

know which one is more important and make that call.

Which child is more important or which thought in the employer's head? Either way, nope, not for nanny to decide which is more important!

The kids sail, swim, play tennis, hockey and dance, I need you to love every one of those activities.

Swimming and dancing are normal. Sailing, tennis and hockey are extras, just like knowing a second language is an extra. Be prepared to compromise other things or let those go.

I can be a tad difficult to work for. I'm loud, always multi-tasking, completely disorganized, I work from home, so you the pleasure of being in my presence all day long and, you get to pretend to like me.

I don't pretend to like anyone. I won't be treated like a doormat. If you are home all day, kids and I will be out all day. If you are disorganized, you can clean up after yourself.

If you cannot multi-task, communicate clearly (you won't offend me), don't bother replying.

Multi-tasking is easy. Clear communication is fine, but given what you've said in this ad, I wouldn't say a word unless I was giving notice.

If you are the type who doesn't notice crumbs on the table, sand on the floor, wet suits in the car, skip to the next post, because these are deal breakers they put me over the edge.

If any of those happened with me, they would be cleaned up. However, I'm not responsible for cleaning up a mess that happened while you had the girls.

I have all sorts of theories on how to stack my dishwasher, fold laundry

Then you need to do it yourself.

and if you are judgmental about Ritalin for ADHD,

Ritalin is acceptable if needed, but teaching the child to manage behavior is better.

or ice cream before dinner, again, deal break city.

Once in a while, ice cream (or other dessert) can be before dinner. Everyday or even a few times a week and no, we wouldn't be a good fit.

This is a live-in situation if you do not have housing already. You do get a room and your own bathroom in our home. You will get the largest guest bedroom in the house. However, we do sometimes have family visit and I may need you to move to a smaller bedroom while they are here (at the most two weeks). If this upsets you, don't email me.

Then put the nanny in the smaller room and leave her there. Moving her back and forth to accommodate your guests is ridiculous. Or have your guests use the smaller room.

We have central air, wifi, and cable, you will have your own tv and plenty of down-time.

If you can cook, all the better, otherwise, I will teach you all sorts of things about pasta.

If your idea of cooking is just pasta, we aren't a good fit.

I need someone who can cook two different types of macaroni and cheese at exactly the same time and also be able to open a can of tuna and remember which pot it goes in.

If there's a reason that there are two pots of mac and cheese (other than a child being picky), it's not a problem. If you are catering to the child who is allowed to be picky, we aren't a good fit.

I am not looking for Super nanny, or anyone who wants this job because they will love my kids as if they are their own.

Then advertise for a sitter, not a nanny.

I am looking for someone who will keep my children happy (though no child is ever always happy), keep them safe, get them to their summer activities, play with them on the beach.

That would be the realm of a sitter, not a nanny.

Playing on the beach means actually playing with them, not posting selfies and updating Instagram while a shark is about to chew off their leg or my 9 year old is ingesting sand.

Wow, exaggeration! If there are sharks nearby, there's a warning and nobody should be in the water. If your 9 year old eats sand, obviously your 9 year old has SN and that should be indicated in your ad. Obviously you need a professional (ie. not a young kid who is more concerned with social media), but the issue is that a professional won't tolerate your attitude.

I need a team player. I need someone to back me up when it comes to remembering when the library books are due, whether we are running low on milk and dear lord, where is that second sneaker??

Taking care of library books, doing a grocery list and teaching kids to take care of their own shoes are within the realm of what a professional nanny would do. Again, you need a professional, but you want a sitter.

I do expect that when the children are at camp or an activity that you will want to go get coffee or sit on the beach, that's fine. However, if there is a 3 hour gap, I need help, offer to throw a load of laundry in, put those dishes in the dishwasher, clean up those beach towels that have been sitting for three days.

A professional would have everything done, provided that the dishes or towels were used during her shift. If you and the girls used the dishes and towels, you need to do them or teach the girls to do them.

One a serious note:
-I need you to have a valid clean driver's license and record
- I need you to be able to swim, CPR certified is a big plus
- My hours vary so does your schedule, a typical day is 8 (8:30) -- 3:30 (4). Occasionally, I will need you to sit an evening or two. This will be communicated and scheduled at least 3 days in advance
- You may take a secondary job working evenings, if this interests you, I can help you find a job

Professionals don't want or need help finding a job. However, if you want the person you hire to be available with only 3 days notice, you will need to schedule around the other position.

- You will have access to a personal vehicle while caring for the girls. For after hour activities, you need your own car.
- You will need to provide 3 credible references
- You like children
- We have a dog that we adore, we will hope that you adore her too!

Please know, I am relatively easy going,

There is no way that you are easy-going. This ad was written by someone very detail-oriented who will find fault with whoever is hired, no matter how well that person does their job.

however, I will not be walked over by someone who is coming here for a summer vacation. If you go out with your friends until 1 a.m., have at it. But you better be ready and up in the morning and look like you are ready to run a marathon. What you do on your own time is your business but don't let it affect mine.

- Dressing the children

By 4 and 5, kids should be dressing themselves, barring SN. They may need help with zippers, snaps, laces and/or buttons, but they should be dressing themselves.

- Bathing the children
- Playing with children
- Teaching the children general basic things like abc's
- Helping Children with their homework
- Reading to the children
- organizing educational activities
- Taking the kids to the park

As a live-in, yes, I would be happy to work with 4 kids so close in age, and the shifts with kids are fine, but I would be doing all housekeeping while the kids are at school, and my minimum rate per hour would be $12, for both childcare and housekeeping.

OP, I get where you're coming from, but you already have your defenses up.

You want a rockstar nanny, which, in all honesty, is going to be hard to find on a Craigslist ad. Go through an agency and pay a lot. This is a person with a lot of training or a lot of experience.

The problem is that you only need a temp, and someone this good, this professional, probably has a full time job.

Good luck.

[Anonymous]

Didn't even read past the first paragraph and I can tell you hell no I wouldn't apply. Anyone who would address prospective candidates, who they should want to apply, so rudely and condescendingly would be a nightmare to work with once she's no longer on her "best" behavior.

Assuming that the OP isn't a troll, there is no way in hell I would work for that woman. Everything about the post screams PITA. "Relatively easy-going," my ass. That post is so defensive and obnoxious and infantilizing. The only way I would even think about putting up with that crap is if the pay is astronomical.

Op here- the ad is from care.com. I know I'm a great nanny, but this MB seems like she would never be satisfied. Was just wondering if I was crazy for even thinking about applying.

[Anonymous]

She's not looking for great. She wants someone wanting to be her doormat, plain and simple.

[Anonymous]

I wonder how much she's paying? Almost reminds of the movie the nanny diaries
