Part-Time Nanny Job: The Semer Family with 1 Child

0 - 5 month old boy

A little bit about us

Hi there! We have a 3 month old baby boy and are seeking part-time help at our home in Palm Springs, CA.

We would love someone who has availability during the week and weekends, though we wouldn't use you every day of the week. We have lots of indoor space to play, plus a backyard and pool, and a beautiful neighborhood to take walks around when it's not too hot outside.

Sometimes one of us travels for work so it would be great to have coverage for a few consecutive days when that is the case.

Otherwise, maybe twice weekly for a couple hours a day to get in the swing of having someone here to help with the baby.

Currently there aren't any pick-ups or drop-offs, though he will eventually go to preschool.

We do have one cat and it is crucial that he stay inside, which means all doors must always be closed!

If you were able to do some light cleaning and organizing (at a minimum cleaning up after yourself and the baby while you're here) that would be great. i.e. bottles washed, kitchen cleaned after use, toys put away, restocking diaper changing station, emptying out the Diaper Genie, etc.

If you love to cook, we would love you to! The baby won't be eating solids for a few months, but it would be great to know you can prepare simple, nutritious meals when he is ready for them.

Newborn care and safety experience is essential. You must know how to pick up, hold, set down, comfort, change, bottle feed and burp a baby. Choking and CPR awareness and skills are essential.

We know babies’ brains are like sponges at this age so we want someone who loves to talk to the baby, sing, read stories aloud, etc.

If you’re not comfortable and experienced with newborns, please do not apply.

Must understand and speak English, but would love if you spoke to him in another language as well!
