Nanny/household manager job description

He has ABA therapy at home 3x/week and is in school full time.

Our younger kiddo is starting preschool this year. He has a sunny disposition and is also quite active. He enjoys listening to stories and playing with anything with wheels. He adores going to the park or playing on our backyard swing set.

LOS ANGELES, CA- Incredible family on the westside (Santa Monica/ Venice) with two boys ages three and five years old is looking for a a ROCKSTAR FULL-TIME NANNY or MANNY to join their loving household! They are searching ideally for someone who will act as an extension of mom and follow her philosophies and parenting approach, and who will bring something special to the table, or add value in their home. Someone with experience and or background in respectful parenting; someone who is well-rounded, able to empathize well, redirect as needed and validate their boys & their feelings without being a pushover. They are looking for someone who is super hands-on, proactive, responsible, professional, easy-going, flexible; energetic, gentle, sensitive and sweet. The schedule is somewhat flexible for the right fit, as you will be overlapping with their second nanny to avoid any burn out.

They are looking for someone who is warm, gentle and loving their overall approach to childcare, someone who is an active listener and capable of speaking the children's love languages.
