Hi there, my name is Kristine. I am a new mom and just had my baby in February. I am currently on maternity leave and I will return back to work in mid-May. My husband and I are exploring the possibility of getting a nanny when we return to work. We are in the Mira Mesa area. I work from home and will need somebody to watch and care for my baby who will be 3 months old in May. My working hours are 6 am-2:30 pm but I will probably only need a nanny for a couple of hours during the weekday. Please let me know if this is something you will be interested in and if your prices are negotiable. If interested, we can set up an interview.

My husband and I work from home, and I take consults as a doctor every 10 minutes or so, lasting about 10 minutes each so I will be in and out of my home office if anything is needed. Our girl has multiple play areas in the house upstairs and downstairs that are baby proof. She does love to eat so if you could feed her simple foods like pasta that would be great. We do have a dog and cat, well behaved, not allowed in play areas.

Dottie is a happy baby who loves to dance and giggle at anything and everybody. We have 4 bulldogs that do not need care, but dog lovers may enjoy our house more than others.

We need help for about 5 hours per day, generally in the middle of the day. We can be somewhat flexible since we both have a hybrid work-from-home model with our employers. We'd be happy to host another child in our home or split time between homes.

San Diego$18.75/hr  |  2 kids
We have twins on the way and were looking for a live in nanny. We need someone for 5 days a week roughly 40 hr/wk. Working hours are flexible and can be negotiated. The responsibilities will be centered around newborn twins including laundry of twins' clothes. No house cleaning is needed, but we ask that you please put away toys after use. We also have a 7-year-old son (P) so the job would entail supervising his interaction with newborn twins from time to time. We want to keep the twins on the same sleep/feeding schedule, so hopefully they will be awake/sleeping at the same time.
