Part-Time After School Nanny - Encinitas, CA
Playful and fun family in Encinitas is seeking an after school nanny for their two kids, ages 3 and 5! They are relocating this summer from Austin, TX and are excited to get settled in their new home. Both kids will be in school during the day so they are in need of a nanny to pick the kids up from school and take them to their various extracurricular activities. They describe themselves as gentle parents with an emphasis on strong boundaries, they like to be silly and playful with the kids, and very warm and affectionate. They speak to their kids like they are little adults and will indulge their curiosity with age appropriate answers on complex topics. Their ideal nanny will have a similar philosophy and can be warm and nurturing as well as silly and creative. Bonus if you speak Spanish, the kids have been in Spanish immersion preschool and their past nannies have spoken Spanish. This is a long term role, they would love to find someone who can stay for years to come!
