FULL-TIME POSITION: Bright, Vibrant & Inclusive Family in West Hollywood Seeks an Incredible Family Assistant! Interviewing NOW!
Date: February 25, 2025
Location: West Hollywood, CA
Job ID: Weho Family Asst
We are thrilled to partner again with this wonderful family of 5 in West Hollywood (Fairfax District), as they look to welcome a dedicated and dynamic Family Assistant into their home! Their beloved nanny of 3 years is relocating to be closer to family, and they are searching for someone equally warm, proactive, and engaged to step into this role. This role is a perfect balance of family assistant duties (50%) and childcare (50%). You will be an integral part of the household, helping to ensure a smooth, organized, and joyful environment. Your responsibilities will be split between assisting with household management tasks and providing attentive, engaging care for the children, ages 5 and 8. It’s important to these parents that their nanny helps instill manners—ensuring the children say “please” and “thank you,” practice gratitude, and learn independence and kindness. Encouraging imaginative play, dance, dress-up, sewing, creative activities, and outdoor play are all highly valued aspects of this role. Additionally, the children's grandfather lives in a detached unit on the property, and he is a cherished part of the family. They are looking for someone who will warmly include him in daily activities, offer to grab groceries for him during store runs, and foster a sense of connection within the household.
