Short-term Nanny in San Diego, CA for a 7-month-old
About The Position
A bit about us: We’re an easy-going, friendly family of 3! We are first-time parents who will be working and finishing school. We’ll be home sometimes working and studying, and at the office/school other times. We also have 2 dogs, Flapjack (80 lb Pyrenees/pittie who LOVES people) and Dave (40 lb mutt who is also friendly, but will need a little time to warm up). We like dance parties with our baby, hiking, and gardening! Our priority is the safety and well-being of our baby. We’re not rigid about the schedule and feel comfortable with our nanny taking the lead! Our 7-month-old baby boy loves attention. He loves our dogs (especially Dave, our girl dog) and being outside looking at the trees. He’s active and loves his Zany Zoo. He likes dancing to music and chewing on everything. Peekaboo is a hit, and he thinks repeated phrases are hilarious! A bit about you: You are a good communicator, dependable, and love babies! You are knowledgeable about infant milestones, caring, and attentive to a baby’s needs. You enjoy spending time outside, reading and singing to babies. If you happen to be bilingual (Spanish/English), you would be happy to share your language with our son.
