Description
This Carmel-SF family would love help in caring for their sweet and bouncy 4-year-old son. He loves building forts and Legos, reading, "training" the family labradoodle, spending time outside, digging in the dirt, and blowing bubbles. Their big Carmel yard has old live oaks to climb, bugs to explore, weeds to whack and is just three blocks from the beach. As a family, they love to share meals, hang out in the yard, dance at sunset and watch family movies. Most importantly, they try to have fun, be aware, and be grateful.


Regarding meals, they like to eat as a family as much as they can. Their toddler is a pretty picky eater and prefers simple foods and sweets (ice pops!), but they try to encourage him to nibble on a variety of veggies.


Due to covid-19 and family member's health (they have a delicate immune system), this family needs to take extra precautions for safety and social distancing. They ask that their nanny use an abundance of caution when outside their home, always wear a mask when in public, and check in with them before socializing with others.


Accommodations: Both homes in Carmel and San Francisco have a private bedroom with a queen/full bed and bathroom on their own floor, apart from the public rooms and family bedrooms. There's a little living space too, adjacent to their bedroom, with a desk, couch, t.v. and mini fridge in Carmel. The SF home will have a desk, comfortable chair and t.v. in addition to a big bed. Both bedrooms have closet and drawer/shelf space.
