Nanny Jobs in San Ramon, CA (NOW HIRING)

Full-Time Nanny | Palo Alto, California$45-$50 per hour + benefitsLocal candidates only!This is a wonderful opportunity for an experienced, warm-hearted Nanny to join a loving family as their second Nanny, supporting three young children between the ages of 6 months and 4 years old. This family works as a true co-Nanny team, with two Nannies collaborating fluidly and supporting one another rather than operating in a lead and support structure. Chemistry and teamwork matter deeply here, and the right person will feel like a natural fit within a warm, kind household.

Above all, this family is looking for someone who genuinely loves being around children, not someone viewing the role as a stepping stone toward house management. A smart, thoughtful, and emotionally attuned presence matters greatly. The ideal candidate is low ego, collaborative, and open to feedback, with a growth mindset for both themselves and the children. Multilingual ability is strongly preferred, ideally Spanish and/or Portuguese, and experience supporting children with ADHD is a wonderful plus.
