Job Description Nanny / Behavioral Support Caregiver – Young Boys We are looking for a patient, confident, and compassionate nanny to work with young boys who benefit from additional structure, guidance, and behavioral support. This is a great opportunity for someone who knows how to be gentle while still setting firm boundaries. We are looking for a caregiver who can build trust and connection while providing consistent expectations, positive redirection, and age-appropriate consequences. The ideal candidate will: • Enjoy working with young boys and have a natural ability to connect with them, • Be patient, calm, and emotionally mature, • Be comfortable setting clear and consistent boundaries, • Use positive reinforcement, redirection, and respectful communication, • Know how to de-escalate challenging behaviors without yelling or intimidation, • Provide structure, routine, and accountability, • Encourage good choices while holding children appropriately accountable, • Be active and willing to participate in play, activities, and outings, • Be dependable, responsible, and comfortable taking the lead when needed, • Have experience in childcare, nannying, education, behavioral support, youth mentoring, or a related field Our approach: We believe children respond best when they feel safe, respected, understood, and supported. Our caregivers use a gentle-but-firm approach—building relationships while maintaining boundaries and expectations. If you are someone who can be both warm and nurturing AND confident enough to say “no” and follow through, we would love to hear from you! Experience with behavioral challenges, ADHD, autism, special needs, education, youth mentoring, or structured childcare is a plus.
