Start Date: September 2026, Flexible for the right candidate

Term: Long-Term

Are you the kind of nanny who loves watching a baby’s world unfold for the very first time?

The Nanny Joynt is partnering with a warm, thoughtful family near Ahwatukee searching for the first nanny to care for their son. Their little boy will be approximately three months old when the position begins, and they are looking for someone who truly enjoys the infant stage and can confidently guide him through each new milestone.

Both parents work from home on East Coast hours and are intentional about giving their nanny the space and autonomy to lead the day. They aren’t looking for someone to simply supervise while they work. They are hoping to welcome an experienced professional who will become a trusted partner, offer guidance when needed, and grow alongside their family for years to come.

About the Family

The Child

One happy, easygoing baby boy born in June who will be approximately three months old when the position begins.

• Naps well in his crib, primarily breastfed and happily takes a daily bottle
• Enjoys tummy time, books, music, and engaging interaction throughout the day
• Warm with familiar caregivers and generally easygoing
• Parents plan to introduce solids in the coming months and would appreciate a nanny who can confidently guide that transition and prepare simple homemade baby foods
• One parent has celiac disease, so the family plans to introduce gluten thoughtfully under their pediatrician’s guidance

The Parents

This is a kind, respectful couple who genuinely values the role of a professional nanny.

• Both parents work from home in separate offices

• They are looking for a long-term relationship built on trust, communication, and reliability
