Part-time Household Manager/Nanny in Pasadena, CA for Three School-Age Children

Family Location: 91104

Summary:

A bit about us:
We're a high-energy, active and welcoming party of 5! We love outdoor adventures like camping, boating, skiing, and spending time together. We have a 4-month-old Golden Retriever puppy named Poppy and 6 chickens! We value kindness, flexibility, communication, and organization. Our main priority is spending more quality time with our kids after work. We are looking for a warm, friendly, and dependable person who will become a trusted and valued part of our family team.


Our 8-year-old son (going into 3rd grade) likes MMA, soccer, Pokémon, and Minecraft. He's pretty hyperactive and social, but can also be quiet when he's focused on an activity he loves.


Our 6-year-old daughter (going into 2nd grade) loves art, reading, and planning playdates, gymnastics, and soccer. She is responsible, caring and super smart.


Our 5-year-old daughter (going into kindergarten) likes gymnastics, soccer, playing with Barbies, and crafts. She's feisty and affectionate.

You are organized, proactive, FUN, and genuinely enjoy working with children!

Nanny responsibilities from approximately 6-7/7:30p include school pick-up and activity transportation, serving dinner, after-dinner kitchen tidying, supporting homework and routines, and engagement (reading, listening, games or play) with kids with minimal use of screen time.
