A little bit about us
About us: We are first time parents who own a home right off Grand Ave in the Lake Merritt neighborhood. Mom works from home for a large consulting firm and has a relatively flexible schedule. Dad works in finance tech in SF. We are new to the nannying thing, so hoping to find another family who are open to learning and collaborating to create an optimal arrangement for both families.
About the baby: Our daughter is easy going, curious, loves listening to music, strolling in the neighborhood, tummy time, and play time outdoors. She is generally a good napper and sleeper, and she loves meeting other babies. Most days, she sticks to a regular schedule of eating and two nap times, but we understand some days we have to shift to her needs or special activities.

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Oakland, CA
If you’re looking for an infant nanny job, you’ve come to the right place! We can help you find an infant care job in your area. Start by telling families about yourself in your profile, and then chat with families to find the right fit. When you think you’ve found the right match, you can turn the discussion towards compensation and responsibilities.
What is an Infant Nanny in Oakland, CA
An infant nanny is a nanny that specializes in caring for newborns. They are skilled in diapering and providing care for any rashes, swaddling, bathing, feeding, and burping. Some infant nannies further specialize in care for premature newborns or multiples.
Preparing for a Nanny Interview for an Infant Care Position
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is an infant nanny job interview. Here is a list of some infant nanny interview questions to prepare for:
- What is your specific experience with this age group?
- Are you Infant CPR/First Aid certified in Oakland, CA? Are you willing to be trained?
- How do you handle a crying baby?
- How often do you usually offer parents updates during the day?
- What do you feed an infant? At 0-3 months? 3-6 months? 6-9 months? 9-12 months?
- How do you set up the infant’s crib for a nap?
- What kind of activities will you plan to engage my baby?
You should be prepared with your references for past nanny jobs, and ideally, past infant jobs. Prior to the infant nanny interview, be sure to think about questions that you might have for the family. This is a great time to ask questions about the responsibilities and compensation for the infant nanny position. To make sure everyone has a shared understanding of the role and responsibilities, we recommend asking for a job offer or a nanny contract. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
