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

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 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 3 rd 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 2 nd grade) loves art, reading, 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.

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.
