When I was interviewing a potential part-time nanny last week, she told me that, in her experience, "babies like to be left alone." Because I'm not a fan of awkward situations, I smiled through it and continued the interview even though I knew I wouldn't be hiring her.

If you're a student who loves kids and believes that babies actually benefit from social interaction, playtime, and storytime, then this position might interest you.

We have an 8-month old daughter.

I have a novel I need to work on.

My daughter deserves to have someone paying attention to her...

...while I am upstairs working on the aforementioned novel.

Our daughter cannot be awake for more than 2 hours at a time without needing to nap, so you would only be working 2 hours a day, 5 days a week. If you want to work more than 2 hours per day, we'll pay you to hang out (send texts, tweet, catch up on emails, study, like things on Facebook/Instagram) while she naps so you'll be there to play with her when she wakes up.

If that sounds good to you and you're a Stanford affiliate (please don't refer people who do not have a .edu address), contact me and let's talk.
