Job Description

A lovely family in Woodside, CA is seeking an exceptional live-out nanny for their baby born in February to start by early July at the latest (May or June start can be accommodated if preferred).

The schedule will be Monday through Friday, likely around 50 hours per week with some weeks possibly more. Hours will be guaranteed weekly. Parents are still figuring out what their schedules will be but an earlier start such as 7am will be preferred. These kind first time parents are looking for a warm and professional nanny who wants to support their baby's growth, watch him grow, and keep a calm and child focused environment.
