Nanny Position in Rendon- 76140
Warm, active, and safety-conscious nanny needed for a growing family with a toddler and newborn
About Our Family
We are a warm, welcoming family of four located in south Fort Worth, near Burleson. This role will support myself as Mom, my active two-year-old son, C*, and his new baby brother. C is surrounded by a huge village of family who play active roles in his life including his Dad, grandparents, aunt and cousins, all of whom keep our house filled with warmth and care.
C is outgoing, curious, and happiest outdoors. We live on a property where he has plenty of room to run, explore, and play. We also have a fenced pool and animals on the property, so attentive supervision and strong safety instincts are essential.
Our family is entering a season of exciting change: we have recently moved, welcomed a new baby, and are transitioning from a long-term nanny who has been with C since he was three months old. We want to make this transition as warm and consistent as possible for him.
Mom will be home during the initial part-time period and will remain the baby’s primary caregiver. The nanny’s initial focus will be providing active, dependable care for C, with occasional support related to the baby. Mom anticipates returning to work in the new year, at which time the position may transition to full-time care for both children.
We value open communication, professionalism, kindness, and caregivers who become trusted members of the family.

About You
You are warm, grounded, dependable, and genuinely delighted by young children. You enjoy being outside and will happily spend time exploring, playing, and moving with an energetic toddler. Outdoor activity is not simply something you tolerate—it is something you naturally enjoy.
You are highly safety-conscious without being unnecessarily restrictive. You instinctively scan the environment, anticipate what could happen next, and remain especially vigilant around water, animals, and open outdoor spaces. You balance that awareness with a willingness to let children explore, learn, and have fun.
You are confident and proactive. Once you understand the family’s preferences and routines, you can take ownership of the day without needing continual direction. At the same time, you communicate well, respect the parents’ expertise, and are comfortable collaborating with Mom while she is home during the postpartum period.
You understand that this family is navigating several meaningful transitions. You can offer C warmth, consistency, and reassurance while building a loving relationship with his new baby brother. You are also adaptable enough to support the family as the role potentially develops from part-time toddler care into a full-time position caring for both children.
Most importantly, we hope to find someone who will become a trusted and cherished presence in our children’s lives. We look forward to meeting you!
