We are mentioning that this family is great as this mom is far from a princess!!!! she is so down to earth, but mentioned that she can not be in two places at once!! They lost their home in the Palisades, and is living near UCLA until the summer, when they will move back to the Palisades! They have 12 year old twins (boy and girl) that have different activities after school and they have a darling labradoodle. Mom stays at home and sometimes has a flair up with her health (never know when this hits) so she needs an extra pair of hands 20 hours a week!! You cold be doing errands, going to the market, prep food (do you like to cook? ) picking up the kids, taking them to therapy (they both have ADHD) taking the dog to the vet, throwing in a load of laundry – you have an amazing attitude and a can do personality! Please let us know if you are interested in a part time (afternoons) job!!

Two busy, professional parents are seeking an outstanding Family Assistant to help manage their full household alongside their long-time, phenomenal Nanny. They have four delightful children ranging from 7 months to 7 years, and while their current Nanny has been with them for years, they’ve reached the stage where an additional set of capable, flexible hands will make all the difference.

This role truly requires a heart of service, adaptability, and a love of family life. The schedule will vary: on days when Dad is traveling and unable to help with school drop-offs, you may start as early as 7:00am; other days may begin later. The family communicates schedules clearly in advance, but life with four children is fluid — the right person is someone who can come in early and stay late when needed. There is a 40-hour weekly guarantee, and some weeks will exceed that.

The role is a true hybrid of hands-on childcare and family household logistics. You’ll tag-team with the beloved Nanny to keep the household running smoothly and efficiently. Responsibilities include:

• Hands-on childcare support for children of all ages
• Significant driving to and from school and activities (Palisades area)
• Kid-related organization and school logistics
• Executive Personal Assistant-style support such as:
◦ Calendaring and scheduling
◦ Running errands and returns
◦ Vendor coordination
◦ Helping with dinner parties and events
◦ Organizing, marking, and staying on top of household systems
◦ Sending holiday cards and managing ongoing to-do lists

The oldest child is bright, sensitive, and a perfectionist with big emotions. Parents are very aware, involved, and supportive, and will help guide you through those moments.

Compensation to Benefits

• Experience with toddlers through school-aged children

This is a dynamic, high-trust role for someone who loves being deeply helpful, thrives in an active household, and enjoys working as part of a strong, collaborative team. Reach out right away if interested! Candidates should have longevity in previous roles which are similar in nature!
