A little bit about us
We are seeking care for our 6-month-old for 20-30 hours per week beginning Sept. 19th until at least Oct. 13th, with the possibility of that extending longer.
We hope to find a caregiver who is dependable and communicative, prioritizes safety, and can adapt to an infant who's not yet on a set schedule. And we hope to find someone who can bring a sense of warmth and lightheartedness when engaging and playing with our smiley, silly, and sweet little one!
Tasks would include feeding bottles and baby food, changing diapers, getting baby down for naps, and engaging baby with books, toys, etc., during awake times. Taking baby on walks or trips to the nearby library would be a plus too.
We do have two cats in the home.
On our end we would work to establish open, clear, and respectful communication with you.
We'd love to hear from you if you're interested or if we can answer any questions about the position.
Thanks for your time!

How to Find an Infant Care Job in Merced, 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 Merced, 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 Merced, 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.
