A little bit about us
Our toddler is very slow to warm to new people, but loves music, crafting, dancing, and playing outside. We would really love somebody who gets her involved in new activities and creates projects to foster learning and creativity.
Some TV is fine, but we'd really love for the kids to spend more time learning, creating, and playing. Our infant needs help with reaching developmental milestones. The kids will need lunch and snacks. We would love if you could help to keep the play area clean and organized. Must be ok with dogs.

Both my husband and I work remotely from our house in Oceanside. We would be looking for a nanny share that would be nearby in Fire Mountain or we could host it at our house. We do have a 18 lb french bulldog who is friendly and wouldn't need any care.

I'll be in the home to assist when felt needed. What you'd help with is playing with our oldest, I enjoy buying any indoor learning activities. Going for walks to our local parks or around the block, to get some fresh air. E loves to ride his balance bike.
E loves being outside and riding his bike! Loves balls and sports involving them. He's also a big fan of the planes we see passing our home daily.
E is a great big brother and is very loving with the baby, but we'd like to make sure he remains gentle with his new little brother.

A little bit about us
We have a one month old baby girl and a 20 month toddler who has been under the care of a nanny since she was 4 months old. Our current nanny is pregnant and will be leaving us in late June, so we are ideally looking for someone to overlap with her to learn our routines and get to know our family.
We are a kind, fun, young family looking for someone who enjoys playing with, engaging, and finding the humor in helping us raise our girls. Our toddler is very silly, playful, sassy, and sweet. She loves music, reading, dancing, and being a big sister. Our baby loves breast milk, clean diapers, tummy time, sleeping, and cuddles from her big sister.
Ideal Hours/Schedule: We both work from home (part-time for one of us and full-time for the other) and we are looking for a nanny to work a consistent schedule Monday - Thursday (~8 hours, ideally starting by 8 AM and ending around 4 PM). We can be more flexible with Fridays but will at least need 4-5 hours consistently from the morning through mid-afternoon. We are open to talking through the exact schedule and hours but do want to provide our girls with consistency. Comfort with parents working from home is a must. We also expect some light housekeeping (cleaning and putting away dishes, cleaning up after the kids, making crib beds, folding kids laundry, etc.)

A little bit about us
She is currently 2 months old, we are being proactive in finding her a nanny.
My husband is a firefighter and he works about 10 days a month unless he is mandated. My schedule is to be determined as I am in the middle of making a job switch.
Hours would be 6:30am-5:30pm most likely.
2-3 times a week.
We are hopeful that our nanny watch Kaia from our home. If it’s not possible we can make arrangements for drop off and pick up.
If you have more questions about the schedule please reach out so I may elaborate more.
We do have 2 dogs as well. For the most part we don’t expect you to care for them excessively just letting them in and out to go potty as well as feeding them at 4:30pm.

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.

When you think you’ve found the right match, you can turn the discussion towards compensation and responsibilities.
What is an Infant Nanny in Oceanside, 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 Oceanside, 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.
