Summary:
Join an adorable blended family where you'll care for a delightful 1.5-year-old as your primary daily charge. The family includes four older children who split time between two households and are only present on Mondays, Tuesdays, and every other Friday. These older children are self-sufficient, with minimal transportation needs. Both parents maintain very demanding careers, making punctuality and reliability absolutely essential. The family provides a vehicle for your use and includes one dog, one cat, and a pool on the property. This position is for local candidates only, and the family strictly adheres to California overtime laws.

Required Skills:
A typical day begins at 8 AM and ends at 4:30 PM. You'll transport the six-year-old to school ~2 days per week, then engage the baby in activities until lunchtime. The baby naps from 12:30-2:00 PM, during which time you'll handle light organizational tasks including pantry and fridge organization (when needed) and general tidying. Additional responsibilities include running errands, returning packages, receiving Instacart deliveries, and maintaining a consistently clean and organized living space. There are also some duties that are related to the mother's home business that you would assist with (e.g., putting together packets and labeling them for shipping). Cooking skills are a valuable bonus! Most time is spent playing with the little one and coming up with fun and engaging activities. At 3:00 PM, you'll pick up the 6 year old child from school, who typically heads straight outside to play with friends after returning from school, as do the other older children.
