A warm and resilient family of 3 in Bel Air is seeking a part-time after-school nanny to support two children (a 14-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter) as they navigate life following the recent loss of their mother, as well as their home in the Palisades fire earlier this year. Both kids are active, kind, and bright – one is a talented athlete who plays football, while the other is a competitive dancer with a big personality and an even bigger heart. The family also has a small dog and a gecko, so comfort around pets is important. This role is all about being a steady, positive presence during the busy after-school hours – helping with school pickups, managing drop-offs for activities and tutoring, preparing simple and healthy dinners, supporting with homework, helping keep things tidy, and winding down the day with bedtime routines. Dad is very hands on and incredibly kind, and is looking for a fantastic nanny to grow with them until the kids are out of the house.
