Energetic and Creative Full-Time Nanny Needed for Fun and Active 4-Year-Old Girl in Central Phoenix
Location: N 20th St and E Montebello Ave, Phoenix, AZ
Start Date: ASAP
Reference Code: TNJFT1428
An upbeat, easygoing, and highly creative nanny is needed for a laid-back and loving family in Central Phoenix. Their dynamic, fun household is looking for a nanny who can help keep their energetic 4-year-old daughter engaged, active, and learning through play. Both parents work from home and need a trusted partner to keep their daughter busy during the day with fun, enriching activities and thoughtful structure.
About the Child:
Their daughter is almost 4 years old and full of energy and personality! She is a fun, physical, and curious child who enjoys:
- Running, climbing, gymnastics, and being outdoors
- Arts and crafts
- Science, experiments, and learning new things
- Independent play and exploration
She has previously had a tongue and lip tie and benefits from routines and supportive eating habits. She thrives with a nanny who can create structure, support healthy habits (especially around meals), and design creative and stimulating activities to keep her focused and engaged. She loves going places and doing new things — the family has memberships to local attractions and would love a nanny who’s excited to get out and explore with her.
The Ideal Candidate:
The perfect nanny for this family is laid back but firm, knows how to have fun while setting respectful boundaries, and comes ready each day with a plan to keep their daughter active and engaged. You should be a strong communicator, independent, and not require a lot of direction — the family prefers someone who can jump in and manage the day with confidence and creativity.
