Also seeking a nanny
We are a family of 3 (soon to be 4 in October) and we have a lovely little 3 year old who currently goes to daycare. However, we do not feel that daycare has been the best environment for her. She is a very sweet and mellow kid, and the loud and sometimes chaotic nature of daycare just doesn't fit her personality. We're looking for a family (or families) with kids that would like to find a better way than 1 teacher caring for 12 kids in the same room every day. We love adventuring and learning and often spend our weekends rock climbing, at the library, doing science experiments or other enriching activities. We have a big dog who likes kids but takes some getting to know for adults (only takes a few carrots to do the trick though). Our ideal nanny share: Ideally, we'd find a caring, patient, relaxed, intelligent, fun, creative teacher and caregiver who's also a good cook ;). We're picturing most days the kids would be at one of the families' homes, or perhaps the caregiver's home, but i would also love something like 1 day a week they get out and do the , or Library, or something along those lines. Hopefully, there'd be around 4 or 5 kids and we may even have another family with a kid who's already interested. Any age 2 to 5 would be a good fit. At daycare, we've encountered too many teachers who quickly resort to yelling, and that doesn't work for us. Our child is a natural rule follower if the rules are clear and explained, and so we don't emphasize a lot of discipline and would prefer a scenario where our child was better able to explore and experiment under safe guidance and supervision. We're not against correction when correction is due, but certainly never physical and yelling should only be used if the child is doing something dangerous and needs to stop immediately. Otherwise, we value open communication on a respectful level, and our daughter tends to respond well to that approach.
