Pod Nanny Job Description
We’re looking for a few folks who’d like to be stewards of our cars this winter. These
dedicated volunteers, called Pod Nannies, must be willing and able to rise early to clear
snow and scrape windshields so that members can easily access the vehicles. In the
event of heavy snow, you may need to return to the vehicle later in the day. We are
looking for back-up Pod Nannies as well.
We’re recruiting Pod Nannies for 17 cars, but four of them have additional needs and
must be moved to a designated alternate location during winter parking bans. Pod
nannies for these four cars will move them to their alternate parking spaces (we’ll give
detailed instructions about this) before 10pm, and then return them in the morning.
What’s in it for You
Pod Nannies earn a $10 monthly driving credit during the winter months (December –
March), whether or not it snows. They earn an additional $10 in driving credits for each
hour worked. Back-up Pod Nannies receive the $10 in driving credits for each hour
worked (with a minimum of $10 in a month when they work at least once that month
but don’t reach a full hour).
Plus, you’ll be one of the team bringing successful car sharing to Vermont, for which
you’ll have our sincere appreciation and undying gratitude!
Guidelines
• Cars and spaces need to be cleaned whenever there are 3 inches or more of
accumulation. During heavy snow, this may mean making a couple trips to the
pod in a day, whenever it fits into your schedule. Volunteers will need to have
access to a sturdy snow shovel.
• Pod nannies should have the physical ability to shovel and scrape in deep snow
and cold weather and be willing to rise early in the day when needed.
• We’re looking for folks who can commit to the job from December 1 to March
31 and who will reliably communicate with staff about availability.
• To earn credits, volunteers will need to log time in an online spreadsheet, so
computer access is needed. We’ll explain how to do this and when.
