A lovely family based in Laguna Beach in Orange County is seeking a polished, experienced full-time nanny to care for their two young children, ages 2 and 3. Both children attend preschool during the week, so the family is looking for someone who can confidently balance hands-on childcare with keeping the children’s routines, spaces, and schedules running smoothly. They’d love to find a nanny who is proactive, calm under pressure, and genuinely enjoys becoming a steady, positive presence in a child’s everyday life.
Key Responsibilities:
Provide attentive, engaging care for two children ages 2 and 3
Manage preschool drop-offs, pick-ups, and daily schedules
Plan age-appropriate activities, outings, and creative play
Support developmental milestones, learning, and social growth
Prepare healthy meals and snacks for the children
Maintain children’s routines, including naps, meals, and transitions
Keep playrooms, bedrooms, and children’s belongings organised
Handle children’s laundry and nursery-related tasks
Create a calm, safe, and nurturing environment
Work closely with parents to maintain consistency in routines and expectations
This role is ideal for a nanny who values quality interaction over simply “watching” children. The family is hoping to find someone who enjoys planning fun outings, encouraging independence, and creating a warm, structured environment where the children can thrive. Since the children are in preschool part of the day, there will also be time to help with child-related household tasks and stay one step ahead of busy family life. The position offers a highly competitive salary of $130,000–$150,000 per year plus medical benefits for the right candidate.
