A little bit about us
Nanny position open beginning mid-July for a family in Palms/Mar Vista (Los Angeles, CA). 3 boys, ages 11, 6, and 3. Must drive for school/activity pick ups/drop offs. Wed-Saturday, hours negotiable (possibly negotiable on days). MUST have a background in RIE and/or extensive understanding of Visible Child. ( Please do not apply if you do not have knowledge of, and experience implementing at least one; preference given to VC given the ages of the children). Bonus points if you are familiar with any of the works of: Ross Greene, Dr. Dan Siegel, Alison Gopnik, etc. Extra consideration given to former preschool or early ed teachers who may have lost jobs during the pandemic. Must be excited and enthusiastic about child development (and willing to talk to mom about it ad nauseum!) . Primarily child care only-some basic clean up of child-used spaces and dishes/laundry, but no significant house cleaning. All taxes covered, paid sick and personal days, paid holidays, $25/hr net pay (non-negotiable-this is the family's upper limit, but please not that this is NET, and because we cover all taxes, it comes closer to $30+ an hour gross pay). Family can provide excellent references from past nannies (this is an opening due to a family event/ moving out of state for the current nanny, and everyone's heart is breaking about the loss).
*COVID vaccines and proof required, as husband is an immunocompromised post-transplant cancer patient.
*must not be allergic to animals, as both cats and dogs are in the house

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Los Angeles, CA
Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.
The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.
There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Los Angeles. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.
