About: Mom and Dad’s shared bond began a long time ago, as high school sweet hearts, growing up together in upstate New York. Over the years, their relationship has been full of adventure and has taken them to destinations all over the world. Now, after eight years in Los Angeles, they’re thrilled to be relocating to Tennessee, and putting down the kind of lasting roots they’ve always envisioned for their family.
For their careers, Mom works from home running a company that supports over 100 nonprofits and social enterprises around the world, and Dad has a demanding role that takes him out of town about four days a month. When not working, their favorite place to be is together – especially outdoors – hiking, camping, working out and taking long daily walks as a family.
Together the couple has one little boy, and is expecting another baby boy in February.
Their oldest, (B2), will be turning two in August, and is a ball of energy, smiles, and sweetness. Like his parents - he loves to be outside – whether that is taking long walks and riding his balance bike, or playing soccer and basketball. This level of activity has produced a very healthy appetite and, while he has his favorite foods of course, he generally will eat anything you put in front of him. He loves to have books read to him and is starting to enjoy coloring. He can also be a professional napper at times and would definitely nap longer than two hours if you let him, though two hours is his sweet spot so he can fall asleep more easily at night.
Most of all, he is just a genuinely sweet kiddo, and Mom and Dad already know he’s going to be a wonderful big brother.
Also in the home is the family’s big, gentle pup named Kona, a very sweet Golden Retriever, who loves napping on the couch or spending time with Mom in her office.
Mom and Dad describe their family as warm, grounded, and active, with a parenting style that is laidback, intentional, and built around a strong, secure attachment. They want their boys to feel confident to explore, get their hands dirty, and learn by doing. Falling down is fine, as long as you brush yourself off and keep going.
Healthy, holistic living is also central to their home. Nutrition matters, and they cook most meals from scratch while keeping the house stocked with fresh produce. They love keeping their little one moving and involved in outdoor activities that get him plenty of fresh air.
And because respect and character are core values of their home, they are raising their son to be kind, have good manners, treat everyone with dignity, and to care for people in need.
The Family’s Ideal Candidate:
The family’s ideal candidate is loving, energetic, and patient — a caregiver who genuinely adores toddlers and infants and can handle the transition from one child to two with a calm, steady presence. They’d love someone adventureloving and safetyminded, especially since (B2) thrives outdoors and enjoys going on “adventures.” Their ideal nanny is respectful and openminded, someone who values different perspectives and cultivates an environment of mutual respect, warmth, and open communication.
Reliability and organization matter deeply to this family. With both parents working long hours and Dad traveling regularly, they need someone dependable who respects routines and can run the boys’ daytoday schedule smoothly. Because Mom works from home, they want someone comfortable with that dynamic — someone who confidently runs the day while welcoming the occasional popin hug from Mom during a break.
They would love a nanny who speaks Spanish and can offer daily language exposure. (B2) has had wonderful caregivers from Guatemala and Mexico, and he’s already begun picking up Spanish, so continuing that cultural and language connection is important as they value the richness it brings into their home.
Above all, Mom and Dad view their nanny as a true partner in raising their boys. More than a supervisor, they want someone deeply invested in their children’s development, milestones, and daily joy. Practically, the nanny will be the captain of the ship during work hours: managing (B2)’s schedule and naps, keeping him safe on his adventures, and caring for their newborn next year. They’re looking for a collaborative relationship built on trust, communication, and mutual respect — one where their nanny feels genuinely valued and supported.
Daily Overview
8:30 AM — Nanny Arrives
(B2) is typically awake and has already eaten breakfast. The morning starts gently - getting him dressed and easing into whatever he feels like doing as he warms up for the day.
9:30–10:00 AM — Outing Head out for a morning adventure — a park, the library, or a new activity he hasn’t experienced before. He thrives outdoors and enjoys exploring different places where he can move, play, and socialize.
12:00–1:00 PM — Home + Lunch Return home around midday. Depending on the morning, lunch may happen before or after arriving home. Once he’s eaten, he transitions into his nap routine.
Nap — 2 Hours (B2) is a strong napper and would sleep longer if allowed, but two hours is his sweet spot to support an easier bedtime.
Afternoon Play — PostNap to 4:30 PM The afternoon is relaxed and playful, with time spent both inside and outside the home. Activities follow his interests and energy level until Mom or Dad take over at 4:30 PM.
During naptime, the family would like a nanny to help with the children’s laundry, dishes keeping the children’s spaces clean and tidy.
