A little bit about us…

Hi! We are losing our amazing long-term nanny due to relocation and looking for a new nanny to help our family in a permanent role! We have 4 children (8 year old girl, 6 year old boy, 4 year old boy and an 8 month old girl). Our nanny is primarily focused on the younger two kids, operating as a team with Mom, who works part-time from home and is also with the kids in the afternoon. You would not be expected to manage all kids at once - this is always a team effort - but the daily schedule is ever changing, so that needs to feel comfortable and fun for you!

Key attributes:
*LOVE kids - high energy, playful and above all, loving
*Proactive in setting up activities and playdates for kids outside the house
*Comfortable setting and following family structure and expectations (we are not an anything-goes family with behavior... teaching strong values is important)
*Flexible and comfortable with chaos of a larger family and constantly changing schedules for kids' schools, activities, etc.
*Want to work in a team setting with mom
*Highly reliable - on time and committed to our schedule
*Help with kid-related tasks to keep the family running (groceries, meal prep, etc)
*Comfortable and safe driving kids (in a car provided by the family on the job)

Hours are Mon - Fri, beginning at 11 or 12 (your choice), ending at 7pm. We will guarantee 40 hours / week minimum, plus paid holidays, vacation time and sick leave. Travel and overnights are not required, but a "nice to have" on rare occasions, if interested.

We view this as a long-term position that would not change as our kids age, so hope that we can find a nanny who wants to be with us through all ages and stages.

A little bit about us…

We’re a family of 4 living in Menlo Park (between Nealon and Lyle Parks). Our son was born in June (the one we’d like to find a nanny share for) and our daughter turns 3 in November (she’s at full time day care).

We’re looking to do a full-time nanny share starting sometime between November and January and would love to find another family with a kid roughly our son’s age prior to finding a nanny (though we have some flexibility here). Our preference would be to host, but we’re open to switching off locations.

What is an Infant Nanny in West Menlo Park, 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 West Menlo Park, 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.
