Busy Family In Arden Seeks Responsible and Positive Part Time Nanny/Family Assistant (Job ID# 2245595)
Description

This loving and busy Christian family is seeking an experienced and dedicated nanny/household manager to join their household. The family consists of three wonderful children: The independent and responsible oldest (14), who is a great student and a loving big sister; the middle son (10), who is laid-back, loves soccer, and is sensitive; and the youngest (6), their sweet, bubbly, and active youngest who loves reading and outdoor activities like hiking. The parents' combined parenting style merges healthy boundaries given with love and respect. They are very involved in their children’s lives, often tag-teaming on parenting duties when they are home.

They are looking for a candidate who is autonomous and not in need of micromanagement as both parents work outside the home. Someone cheerful and gentle but able to be firm when necessary, and is organized and detail-oriented. The ideal candidate loves working with children, is passionate about their role, and is comfortable with a Christian household. Minimal piercings or tattoos are preferred, and flexibility for occasional overnight care would be great, but not required.

Since all three children are in school, during the school year the majority of the time spent will be on household tasks such laundry, tidying, organizing, cleaning out fridge, running errands, groceries, meal prep , etc. They would like someone with a can do attitude that can be proactive about keeping the household well managed without needing constant direction as well as someone who is willing to do what needs to be done. The family does have housekeepers come regularly so no deep cleaning will be necessary.

Their ideal candidate is great with school age kids as there will hands on time with the kids when they are not in school. The nanny will need a reliable vehicle as they will need to be able to take children to school and pick them up as well, or take them to other fun activities when time permits. The kids will be enrolled in summer camps a good amount of time, but likely the 6 year old will be home more than the older children.

This family treats their nanny like family and hopes to find someone who loves their job and integrates seamlessly into their home for at least a year, if not more. If you have a passion for childcare and household management, please submit your resume and a brief cover letter explaining why you are the perfect fit for this family.
