Hello Families, I’m a pediatric nurse and I am interested in helping parents with a newborn be able to get an occasional night away from home or simply have a night free of baby worries. I’m interested in helping families in Monterey - Carmel AND anywhere from San Jose to San Francisco. (I own a condo in Monterey and also have a TinyHome up in the Bay Area.) Please contact me if you have a little one and would like help with overnight care. I can complete bottle feedings, burping the baby, and diaper changes. I can help wash and sterilize bottles and take care of the baby’s laundry. If you need help in other areas it can be discussed. My rate is approximately $45 per hour depending on level of care needed and how well the baby is sleeping. As the baby starts sleeping through the night I can Read more also do a lower flat rate for overnight shifts. I had a little baby last fall and so I have lots of baby items if you don’t mind something gently used. Note: I am not a professional masseuse; but, I have experience with pre-and postnatal massage for expecting and new moms. I have also thrown in a couple massages for dads with tight backs. (If I am going to work a full overnight shift as a night nanny/nurse then the rate is $80 an hour for the massage.) If someone just needs a massage then my rate includes a standard house call fee and is approx: $150 for the first hour and $100 each hour after. (Two hour minimum for out call.) Thank you for reading my posting and hope to hear from you soon!
