About: Dad is a TN native, who after graduating from the University of TN (GO VOLS!), joined his father at their family's business that specializes in undergraduate, graduate, and doctorate programs, and is currently the President of the Nashville campus.
Mom is originally from Arizona, and met Dad after attending PA school in Knoxville. They dated long distance for about a year before she moved to Nashville, and they eventually married. The next several years were spent building their careers and expanding their family, with their first daughter born in 2021, their second in 2023, and third in April 2026. Balancing work and Motherhood brought its challenges for Mom, so she decided to step away from medicine and turn her focus toward what mattered most to her: building strong bonds with her daughters, and being able to experience the special moments of daily life with them.
With the older daughters’ busy schedules and keeping up with all the chores at home, Mom is ready for an extra pair of hands to help balance out the sweet chaos of life with 3 under 5.
Their oldest daughter, (G5), is a very independent and confident little girl who loves to “run the show.” She enjoys being a big sister, helps often, and bounces back quickly from typical sibling disagreements. She’s a girly girl at heart and loves dressing up, “makeup,” and handbags! She goes to school 5 days a week, 7:45 – 2:45, and stays active with gymnastics twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday from 4-6pm.
Her little sister, (G3), is silly, lovable, and full of personality. She looks up to her big sister and loves dancing, singing, and playing with baby dolls. She can be a little “spicy” at times but recovers quickly and is incredibly sweet‑natured. She also goes to school 5 days a week, 9:00 – 12:00 (mon) and 9:00-2:00 (tues-fri). She goes to gymnastics with her big sister on Tuesdays and has dance class on Wednesdays.
(G6mos), is the happiest little baby. She has been the sweetest addition and loves to stay on her schedule of bottles, solids, play, and nap!
Also in the home is the family’s 70‑pound Berneedoodle who is very sweet, affectionate, and loves everyone. It is a MUST that this candidate loves dogs.
Mom and Dad describe their family as full of life, but balanced - keeping an active social calendar filled with friendly dinners, sporting events and concerts, while also making sure to carve out quiet family time at home each week.
Their girls are their top priority, and they describe their parenting style as filled with love and support, and one that fosters independence for their girls by setting clear boundaries and expectations with them.
The Family’s Ideal Candidate Is:
Reliable and Punctual: Someone who will be at work on time and also attentive to the girl’s schedules.
Honest and Transparent: Someone who is interested in forming a foundation of trust, and who will partner well with Mom and Dad.
Nurturing: Someone who loves children of all ages and has an avid interest in helping them grow and develop.
Organized: Someone who likes organization, especially as it pertains to the children and their belongings. Mom would be very pleased to find a nanny who will make sure things are reset and back in place each day, and who can also encourage and direct the children to do the same.
Detail Oriented: Someone who is detail oriented, especially in the small details that make a home run orderly and smoothly.
Also, as there will be Driving involved, a candidate who is experienced and comfortable driving minors, and who has a clean driving record, is a must.
The family requires candidates to have a current TDap. They prefer, but do not require, candidates to have a recent Flu Shot. They do not require candidates to have received the Covid Vaccine.
Overview of family assistant/nanny typical day:
The weekly shifts are focused to accommodate the children' s after school activities during the week and Mom’s volunteer commitments.
