Any tips for finding a part time nanny on care.com? Anything specific to include in job posting? Or how to filter responses?

I was very specific about my needs (which days/hours, responsibilities, high energy, flexible schedule) then I filtered most out based on their replies. A lot of the part time applicants were super young which I wasn’t comfortable with so that was one criteria for me. Also since I was looking for someone responsible and professional I filtered out anyone with haphazardly written responses. I got a lot of flakey applicants (wouldn’t follow through on scheduling interviews) but that made the good ones stand out. I interviewed a few, met two in person and found someone great. I know it can be stressful so good luck!

I was a provider on care.com for years, and had CPR and years of childcare experience... it was a wild ride from the caregiver side too. I had a job with hoarders where there was only one path through the house and cat excrement everywhere, I had a sweet family with twins who were marvelous, I had one dad hit on me repeatedly and creepily, one mom who had contradicting and really difficult demands, and many lovely and unremarkable jobs... please remember to be kind to your care provider regardless. It’s often barely minimum wage and most providers care deeply about doing right by your family. ❤️
