Houston Nanny Jobs: Types, Pay Range and Descriptions
(What best suits my expertise?)
Nannies
When you take a nanny job in Houston with Mom’s Best Friend, you are more than a babysitter or child supervisor—you are a screened, highly experienced professional caregiver, trained in the most progressive aspects of child care. Our nannies know how to design and implement daily curriculum, monitor child’s development, plan entertaining games, arts and crafts projects, and activities to stimulate a child’s learning, imagination, and development. The focus of the nanny is on the children, with duties relating specifically to their care. A Mom’s Best Friend Houston nanny is an experienced, loving caregiver that can be hired part-time or full-time by a private family to care for the family's children, either on a live-in or live-out basis. In addition to nanny experience, great nannies often begin as teachers, day care employees, child development majors, babysitters, camp counselors, church nursery workers, and/or lifeguards or swim instructors. Our nannies may also have a college education, child-development continuing education hours, and/or teaching experience. Houston nannies typically make $12-$18/hour + benefits, and no less than $30,000/yr when placed through Mom’s Best Friend.

Nanny Managers
Some of our families look for a nanny to fulfill a wide range of household management duties above and beyond a nanny’s basic child care responsibilities. Houston is a wonderful place to facilitate learning with a wide range of educational and cultural places. As a nanny manager, you will (along with nanny responsibilities noted above), transport children to these great places, pick up children from school, organize after-school activities, tutor, run errands, grocery shop, provide mature supervision and security while traveling, and/or pull together a basic evening meal following the family’s favorite recipes. Nanny managers are hired by a private family, either on a live-in or live-out basis, and often have a minimum of a bachelor's degree. The typical compensation for a Houston nanny manager placed through Mom’s Best Friend is $13-$20+/hour + benefits, and no less than $30,000/yr.

Child Educators
A child educator is a dedicated instructor who prefers the learning experience that a private, in-home education offers over teaching a large class of students. As a child educator, your goal is for your charge to achieve academic success, in addition to the duties a nanny manager performs. Child educators are mature and nurturing, providing hands-on instruction for their charges through curriculum, special projects and practical learning experiences. You may facilitate field trips where the children will have one-on-one exposure to museums, art exhibits, science and math related excursions, and a variety of other applied learning experiences. Child educators have a minimum of a bachelor’s degree, teaching credential (and/or early childhood education specialty or related experience), and instructional experience. The typical compensation is $16-25+/hour + benefits, and no less than $30,000/yr.
