Full-Time Weekend Nanny - La Jolla, CA
Lovely family with 3 little ones is seeking a seasoned, career nanny to join their support team! They have 3 sweet girls, a 2 year old and 6 month old twins (born premature, adjusted age is 3 months). Both parents are home and involved, but they find it makes a huge difference having the extra support of a nanny during the week and would like to establish support over the weekends as well. Must be able to work well with parents as a team and work well in a busy environment. Their ideal nanny is warm, energetic, positive, organized, great at multitasking, and experienced with multiples. They describe their parenting style as kind, but firm and want their kids to grow up to be kind, respectful, happy people. They do live on a steep hill so the nanny must be able to push a stroller up and down the hill.
