ECE Nanny Needed FT for Newborn in Presidio Heights

A family in Presidio Heights is seeking an experienced nanny / educator for their 3-month-old baby boy. They are looking for someone certified and highly knowledgeable in developmental milestones and early education. Responsibilities include planning age-appropriate activities, engaging in play, preparing bottles and baby-friendly solids, child laundry, and light tidying.

They’re looking for someone experienced and confident, but also highly collaborative and adaptable. The parents are fairly hands-on and have preferences around feeding and nap schedules, so it’s important that the nanny is comfortable following their direction and communicating closely rather than needing complete autonomy in those areas. Grandparents are also involved with the baby and occasionally provide childcare, so they;d like to find someone comfortable interfacing with them too from time to time.

Above all they are looking for someone with extensive newborn/infant experience who is professional, warm, a team-player, and confident. Flexibility and willingness to travel is ideal as the family travels 2-3 times per year (trips are usually 7-10 days). The best person for them is looking for longevity and will grow and adapt with the family.
