Job Description

Nanny / Mother’s Helper / Family Assistant Needed

Location: La Mesa
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 3:30 PM–6:30/7 PM; occasional Saturday or Sunday mornings/afternoons (approx. 14–20 hrs/week)
Compensation: $19–$22/hr DOE (Regular rate paid for any federal holidays worked)

We are a warm and active family seeking a reliable, caring, and experienced nanny/mother’s helper to support with childcare and light household tasks. The ideal candidate will be nurturing, organized, proactive, and able to create a positive, engaging environment for our two boys (ages 6 and 8).

Responsibilities

Childcare

  • Follow a consistent daily routine for two boys (6 and 8)

  • Assist with homework or school projects as needed

  • Engage in educational and creative play (reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, etc.)

  • Support children’s routines with patience, structure, and warmth

Household Tasks

  • Light housekeeping (sweeping, vacuuming, mopping)

  • Wash and put away dishes

  • Laundry and general tidying

  • Maintain an organized and clean household environment

Qualifications

  • Prior experience as a nanny or in a similar childcare role (required)

  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

  • Warm, patient, and proactive demeanor

  • Non-smoker

  • No phone use while supervising children

  • Valid driver’s license and good driving record

  • Background check may be required

  • Reliable, punctual, and able to take initiative

  • Excellent communication and time management skills

  • Ability to multitask and stay calm under pressure

  • A genuine love for children and commitment to their well-being

  • Positive professional references

Additional Notes

  • The mother is actively involved in childcare and household management. Tasks are shared, with the nanny focusing on housework when the children are occupied and shifting back to childcare once housework is complete.

  • Respect for the family’s schedule is essential. Please maintain punctuality and communicate clearly about any scheduling conflicts.

  • Emergency or unplanned absences should be accompanied by appropriate documentation (e.g., a doctor’s note).

  • We value professionalism and reliability — this role is an important part of our family’s routine and support system.

If you’re passionate about working with children, enjoy helping families thrive, and take pride in maintaining an organized, nurturing home environment, we’d love to hear from you!
