- Schedule

Week 2: Monday 12–5, Tuesday 12–4, Friday 8–1

- Looking for
- Significant weekday flexibility and comfort with a schedule that changes week to week. A long-term commitment. Active and creative, and genuinely enjoys engaging with young children.
- Day to day
- Caring for the boys and keeping them engaged: time outside, fun and creative activities, and an active, healthy routine. Pitching in with miscellaneous household tasks as needed, with no significant household management. No driving the children at first, though the family may become comfortable with it later.
- Good to know
- Two cats in the home. Nanny may not bring their own child. Mom works in a hospital, not from home; Dad occasionally works from home and travels often.
