HN– Nanny – Hillsborough, CA

Overview: A kind family in Hillsborough, CA is seeking a full-time professional nanny to add to their team. They have four (4) bright, friendly, and kind boys ages almost 2-years-old through 8-years-old. They have had a full-time nanny for 8 years who is still with them and works during the week, as well as a weekend nanny, but looking to supplement with extra help.

The schedule for this role would be 4 days from either Wednesday-Saturday or Sunday through Wednesday, so working 1 weekend day every week. They would be looking for 12-hour days for a total of 48 hours spread over those 4 hours, with the hours being between mornings and evenings (I.E., 7am-7pm, etc.). The nanny can be live-in or live-out when working, but live-out when not working the other 3 days of the week, so this role would not be fully live-in 7 days a week.

Only living in when working if the live-in option is selected. The candidate to hire will have own bedroom and bathroom when living in. Because of the children’s school and activities, they really need additional set of hands so this nanny will work alongside the other aforementioned caregivers. They need someone Covid-conscious and up to date on all immunizations/flu shut/Covid vaccines due to one of the parents working in medicine/in hospitals.

They really desire someone with high integrity, work ethic, reliable, professional, and has a helpful personality and demeanor, not seeking to do the minimum, but who values pitching in. Due to having 4 young boys, must be active. The busiest time of the day in the household is mornings and afternoons.

• Getting the children ready in the morning (dressed, grooming [hair combed, teeth brushed, faces washed, etc.], breakfast, backpacks for school ready to go and filled with what they need for the day, etc.)
• Transporting the children to/from school and activities
• Playing with and engaging with the children; reading, active play outdoors, imaginative and arts/crafts/games indoors, etc.
• Snack and meal prep for the children
• Evening routine (showers, bathing, grooming, etc.)
• Encouraging the children to clean up after themselves as age-appropriate (putting clothes away, making their bed, putting toys away when done with them)
• Rotating through wardrobes/toys as needed and advising when new items are needed
• Overseeing developmental milestones (especially for the youngest, I.E., potty-training)
• They have a 30 hour/week housekeeper so the job would not entail too many household tasks. However, the nanny would be expected to keep things tidy, occasionally run a load of laundry for the children and meal prep/feed/clean up after the children. A pitch-in attitude is welcome and essential in the household
• Ability to travel with the family; this would usually be domestic, though may include Canada and wouldn’t exclude international travel on very rare occasions

• Team-player mindset
• Helpful, not entitled
• Kind and honest

• Driving experience and a clean driving record
• Experience with young children (aged 1-8) and multiple children at a time
• Covid-conscious and up to date on all immunizations/flu shut/Covid vaccines due to one of the parents working in medicine/in hospitals
• Ability to travel with the family; this would usually be domestic, though may include Canada and wouldn’t exclude international travel on very rare occasions

• The family is open on hourly rate depending on experience and qualifications
• $500 monthly healthcare stipend
