About the Family
This warm, busy, and down-to-earth two-mom family in Corona Heights is seeking a proactive and highly capable Family Assistant/Nanny to become an integral part of their household. They have one bright, curious, and active seven-year-old daughter and deeply value quality family time together. They hope to find someone who can thoughtfully support the flow of their home so they can remain present and connected as a family.
The role is approximately 80% Family Assistant support and 20% childcare. Their daughter attends school full-time, so the majority of the day centers around household management, organization, errands, meal prep, scheduling, and keeping the home running smoothly. Childcare responsibilities primarily include school and activity pickups, coordinating play dates, supporting after-school routines, and occasional evening or weekend coverage.
The family also spends much of the summer at their vacation home in Sonoma County, and the candidate will join them there for approximately 8–10 weeks during the summer months. They describe themselves as respectful, communicative, flexible, and easygoing, and they are looking for someone who shares those values and genuinely enjoys creating calm, organization, and support within a busy family environment.
Their Ideal Candidate
Their ideal candidate is proactive, organized, dependable, and naturally takes initiative without needing significant direction. They are looking for someone who enjoys managing the moving pieces of a household, anticipates needs, and takes pride in creating systems and order. A positive, can-do attitude and strong communication skills are essential.
This family would love to find someone warm, engaging, and personable who can confidently pivot between household management and childcare responsibilities with ease. The right person is detail-oriented, flexible, trustworthy, and comfortable managing a wide variety of responsibilities ranging from errands and vendor coordination to meal prep and school pickups.
They are seeking someone interested in building a long-term relationship with their family and envision this as a collaborative partnership for years to come.
