We are looking for a warm, caring, patient, and reliable part-time nanny to care for our toddler son in our home in Renfrew NE, Calgary. We are expecting our second baby in February 2027 and would love to find someone who can build a genuine connection with our son before the baby arrives. We're hoping to find someone who can become a familiar, trusted, and consistent presence in his life. A Little About Our Son Our son is a sweet, curious, playful, and observant little boy who enjoys exploring, playing, and spending time outdoors. Like many toddlers, he can be outgoing and adventurous at times, while other times he prefers to observe and take his time getting comfortable with recent people. He's becoming more independent and loves discovering new things, but also appreciates reassurance and familiarity. We'd love someone who understands his personality, respects his pace, and helps him feel safe, comfortable, and happy. What We're Looking For Character and personality are our top priorities. Above all, we're looking for someone who is genuinely kind, gentle, patient, trustworthy, dependable, and nurturing. While childcare experience is certainly valuable, we believe a caregiver's character, attitude, emotional maturity, and connection with our son are just as important, if not more so. Our ideal nanny is someone who:
* Genuinely enjoys spending time with toddlers
* Is warm, affectionate, attentive, and nurturing
* Is patient and understanding, especially during challenging moments
* Respects our son's feelings and allows him to warm up at his own pace
* Enjoys reading, playing, exploring, and spending time outdoors




* Remains calm and gentle when handling difficult situations
* Is honest, responsible, dependable, and communicates openly
* Respects our parenting approach and works collaboratively with our family
* Is interested in building a long-term relationship with our son We're not necessarily looking for someone with the most experience, but rather someone who genuinely enjoys caring for children and has the right personality and attitude. Responsibilities
* Provide attentive, loving, and age-appropriate care for our toddler
* Engage him in interactive play, reading, music, and activities
* Take him for walks, playground visits, and local outings
* Prepare simple meals and snacks
* Help maintain his daily routine, including naps
* Encourage his curiosity, independence, and development through play
* Provide comfort and reassurance when needed
* Light tidying related to childcare, such as cleaning up toys and after meals Our priority is our son's safety, happiness, and well-being rather than housekeeping. Position Details
