Nannies > What Nannies Do

As a nanny, your primary responsibility will be child care. Daily tasks typically include:
• feeding • playing • carpooling
• dressing • arts & crafts • kids' laundry
• bathing • playdates & outings • cleaning up after children's activities
• reading • help with homework • supervising children's chores

You will also be asked to help your family perform light housekeeping chores. These might include:
• laundry
• shopping and errands
• simple meal preparation
• loading/emptying dishwasher
• tidying up at end of day

You should negotiate your responsibilities with your family/employer before you begin work.

A typical work schedule is Monday through Friday. The hours of work vary depending on the particular job. Typically a work week is 40-50 hours. We ask that you make a commitment for a minimum of one year, and that you take this job very seriously.

There is no job more demanding and important than caring for young children. At the same time, we know of no other job more rewarding and satisfying than the work involved in helping young children grow and develop.
