Full Time Nanny Needed For Five Year Old
Start Date: Mon 8/17
Compensation: $25
We are working with a wonderful family looking for a full time Monday to Friday nanny for a 5 year old in Los Angeles. The hours are 8:00am - 4:00pm until school classrooms re-open and they are comfortable sending their daughter back to school. After that, hours would be 12:30pm - 6:00pm *NOTE: These hours are a bit tentative until they know what the class schedule will be. The idea is that they would like their nanny to be at the home for the start of the “school day”; and then for a total of 8 hours. Both parents are currently working from home and most likely will be doing so until end of this year / early next year at the earliest. Dad does go into the office occasionally but only when necessary. Each parent have a separate workspace / office that are both away from the main living area. Their daughter will be enrolled in a 50/50 language immersion program and they would love someone who speaks Japanese, however it isn’t required. Someone who is comfortable teaching/tutoring background and experience would be great but not required.

If this is a job for you you will bring a youthful energy to your job with a caring and uplifting spirit. Someone who is calm and has an understanding approach to any situation. Has an Interest/education in healthy cooking, nutrition and fitness a bonus. Has a car and ability to drive themselves and is comfortable driving their daughter when needed.
