Sometimes working as a part time nanny isn’t the ideal situation, but it’s all you’re able to get at the time. Sure
part time nannies can ask for a little more money, but it’s not the same as getting 40 hours of work (or more) per week. So why not play your cards right and arrange to share two part nanny jobs. If you’ve worked for a certain family, or in a certain neighborhood, chances are that people know who you are. You’ve hopefully gained a good reputation as a reliable nanny.
By doing some networking, you’ll soon find out who needs a part time nanny and, at that time, you can make your move! Talk to people, let them know you’re willing to work as a part time nanny for them, then sit down and work out an agreeable schedule between all families involved. If the schedule is just right, you might be able to work for one family for so many hours per week, and then fill the other hours working for someone else.
