A warm and energetic family in Inglewood is seeking a fun, dependable, and proactive part-time nanny to join their household and provide supplemental childcare for their two children, ages 3 and 5. The family already has a full-time nanny and is looking for an additional team member who can work collaboratively with their current caregiver while providing additional support, particularly for their 3-year-old son, who is autistic and benefits from additional support with transitions, emotional regulation, and navigating his daily activities. The family takes a progressive approach to parenting while placing a strong emphasis on respect, manners, and appropriate behavior. They are looking for someone who can confidently reinforce these expectations while remaining warm, patient, and nurturing!
Their 3-year-old son is playful, affectionate, and a big superhero fan. He is a sensitive and sweet little guy who enjoys spending time with his sister. He attends an advanced school, participates in speech therapy and other activities, and may occasionally experience meltdowns. The family uses positive redirection, breathing exercises, and counting to help him regulate and transition successfully. He is also a somewhat selective eater, although he is capable of feeding himself. Their 5-year-old daughter is full of personality! She loves music, dancing, academics, and participating in activities. While you will primarily be responsible for their son, it’s very important to them that you be equally open to supporting their daughter whenever it’s needed.

Responsibilities will primarily include providing supplemental supervision and childcare for their 3 year old, transporting him to speech therapy and activities, engaging both children in fun and age-appropriate activities, and assisting with light household tasks related to the children, including meal/snack prep. The family would love someone who is comfortable caring for both children whenever needed and interacting with their daughter as well, even when the other nanny is present.
The family is busy with work and is seeking a true self-starter who can learn their routines, anticipate needs, and take initiative without requiring constant direction. Experience caring for and maintaining textured hair, including protective hairstyles. The ideal candidate will be comfortable following a consistent hair care routine and supporting the child’s hair health, including detangling, moisturizing, styling, and maintaining protective hairstyles as needed.
The ability to assist with homework is a big plus! The position will be paid through payroll via ACE, and the family is hoping to find someone interested in a long-term, consistent commitment. If you are a reliable, engaging nanny who thrives in a collaborative household, this could be a wonderful fit! Apply today!
