At Choice Parenting, we are advocating for you as nannies in this time of unknown! Please follow us on Instagram and Facebook (@choiceparenting) to see our response for paying nannies and information on the nanny market locally. All of our permanent jobs have mostly been put on hold as families are trying to navigate this new reality that we are living in. We understand that many of you are scared as too many of you have lost your jobs recently and need to work. We are working hard to come up with temporary solutions for families and nannies alike. These temporary positions are going to be complicated as many parents are working from home AND kids can't go outside and play or go to activities/school. Please only apply to these positions if you got what it takes! We need you to go in with an extra dose of patience for kids and parents alike and an arsenal of ideas for fun, creative and active indoor play or this will not work! We are working to keeping us ALL making money and NOT getting sick/spreading illness so social distancing nanny households are going to need to be required in most situations. Please pass this along to LOCAL nannies in the area! Appreciate your support and I look forward to supporting you past this point of crisis! X Holly Flanders
