Occasional Morning Nanny - Carlsbad, CA
Busy family in Carlsbad is seeking a nanny to support their morning routine when Mom travels for work (approximately one work trip per month) as Dad needs to head into the office pretty early each morning. Mom will have her 2026 travel schedule mostly planned out before the start of the year so the nanny can have their work dates in advance. This is a great role for someone who is looking to pick up some extra hours on a semi-regular basis. They have 2 kids ages 6 years and 18 months, help is needed to get the kids up in the morning, dressed, fed, and dropped off at school/daycare. Their ideal nanny is experienced with these age groups and can keep the kids on schedule in the morning in a warm and playful way. They would love to have someone start now as an occasional babysitter for date nights to develop a relationship with the kids and then Mom’s first work travel with the new nanny in place will be in February.
