Unique Job Description

Urgent Hire: Newborn Nanny & Overnight Support | Calgary

The Opportunity Are you a newborn specialist who thrives on providing that critical early-stage support for new parents? Our family in Calgary is looking for a nurturing, highly dependable Nanny to join us immediately. We have a precious newborn and are seeking a caregiver who understands the delicate needs of an infant and can provide a steady, calming presence in our home.

This is a part-time, live-out role, but it comes with a unique opportunity: we are looking for someone who can occasionally step in for overnight care. If you are a “night owl” who loves helping families navigate those first few months with a newborn, we would love to meet you.

Your Role & Impact Your primary focus will be the safety and well-being of our newest family member. Because this is a “mother’s helper” style role, your support allows us to focus on recovery and bonding. Your duties will include:

• Infant Expertise: Managing feedings, diapering, and soothing techniques tailored to a newborn’s needs.

• Restorative Overnights: Providing nighttime supervision so that we can get the sleep necessary to be the best parents we can be during the day.

• Home Harmony: Helping us keep our heads above water with light housekeeping, basic meal prep, and looking after our family pets.

• Safety Leadership: Maintaining your CPR standards and ensuring a completely safe sleep and play environment for the baby.

Who You Are

• The Baby Whisperer: You have extensive experience with infants under three months old and feel confident managing their cues and schedules.

• CPR Certified: You prioritize safety and maintain up-to-date certifications.

• Reliable & Flexible: You understand that newborns can be unpredictable and are looking for a role where your flexibility (especially for overnights) is truly valued.

• Pet Friendly: You enjoy animals and are happy to include our pets in your daily routine.
