A little bit about us

Hi, I work at a restaurant in Kenwood, and I am a mom of a sweet and energetic almost two year old boy named Ian. He loves to play, smile, and explore. He loves balls, running, parks, and animals, especially dogs and cats. Funny fact, we do not have any pets at home. We speak Spanish at home, but you are welcome to speak to him in English if you feel more comfortable. I am currently looking for a babysitter mainly for weekends, Saturdays for about two hours and Sundays for about five hours during my shifts. We live in Santa Rosa, and the care can be at our home or at your place, preferably nearby. There are no extra tasks, just caring for Ian, keeping him safe, and playing with him. Thank you so much, and I look forward to connecting.

We also have pets (dogs/cats) so pet lovers are especially welcome.

The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.

There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Santa Rosa. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
