About the Role
Hello Nanny!®, a nationwide boutique nanny placement agency, is recruiting a warm, dependable full-time nanny for a wonderful single dad and his two daughters in Dallas, TX. This is a true partnership role: Dad works a demanding schedule and is looking for someone who can be the steady, nurturing anchor of the girls' weekday routine — from morning lunch prep and school drop-off through homework support, dinner, and bedtime wind-down before he arrives home.
The Weekly Schedule
This role follows a split-shift schedule designed around the girls' school day:
| Block | Hours | Focus | |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM Shift | 7:00 AM – 11:00 AM | 4 hrs | Morning routine, lunches, 8:00 AM school drop-off, then household support — tidying the girls' spaces, laundry, and dinner meal prep |
| Midday Break | 11:00 AM – 2:30 PM | 3.5 hrs (unpaid) | Your own time — head home, hit the gym, run errands |
| PM Shift | 2:30 PM – 6:30 PM | 4 hrs | Arrive in time for the 3:55 PM pickup line, then homework help, dinner, and the evening routine/bedtime wind-down |
Because household tasks are handled in the morning while the girls are at school, your afternoons stay fully focused on the kids — not chores. And the generous 3.5-hour midday break is real, usable time to live your life, not an awkward gap.
Because Dad's work occasionally requires additional coverage, the ideal candidate will also have flexibility for on-call support approximately one weeknight every two weeks, and one weekend every 3–4 months. The great news: his schedule is set a full month in advance, so all on-call dates are known well ahead of time — no last-minute surprises. A typical month might include three weeknight on-call shifts and one weekend assignment, such as a Sunday beginning mid-afternoon, or a short Saturday shift followed by a full Sunday.
All compensation is processed through legal W-2 household payroll — 40 hours guaranteed every week at $27/hour ($1,080/week), with proper tax withholding, official pay stubs, Social Security and Medicare contributions, and verifiable income for mortgages, loans, and other financial applications.
