A warm, welcoming, and loving family new to Sherman Oaks by way of Boston is seeking an exceptional career nanny to become a true long-term partner in caring for their 2 boys, ages 6 months + 5 years! This is a wonderful opportunity for a bright, cheerful, and deeply invested nanny who genuinely loves what they do and is excited to walk into work each day feeling like a valued part of the family team.

Beginning this fall, the family’s older child will attend school full-time, making this role primarily focused on caring for the baby throughout the day, while also assisting with school pick-up and afternoon/evening support for big brother. Responsibilities include planning and engaging in developmentally appropriate activities, bottle preparation and feeding, preparing healthy meals and snacks for both children, bathing, children’s laundry, keeping children’s spaces organized and tidy, school transportation, and helping maintain the overall flow of the children’s routines and schedules. This family truly operates as an “all hands on deck” team and would love a nanny who naturally jumps in where needed to support the children and household.
