A little bit about us
Hi neighbors! We’re a full-time working family based in Santa Monica (90403) looking to join or create a nanny share for our 7-month-old son, Arlo, ideally starting by May 19.
We value:
A safe, warm, and nurturing environment
Age-appropriate developmental activities (reading, music, sensory play)
Daily outdoor time (walks, local parks, etc.)
Open communication and shared values with the other family and caregiver
We’re flexible on sharing homes, as long as the setup is safe and baby-friendly. We'd love to find another family with a similar schedule (M–F, roughly 8am–5:30pm) and a nanny who is experienced with infants, CPR certified, and passionate about early development.
Please reach out if you’re interested or know someone looking! Happy to chat and see if it’s a good fit.
Warmly,
Molly + Nick

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Santa Monica, 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 Santa Monica, 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 Santa Monica, 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.
