Full Time
Entry Level
Jovie
Redmond, WA, USA
Summary:
A bit about us: We are a busy and active family in Kirkland with two school-aged children who love music, creativity, and spending time together. Our 12yo daughter is social, artistic, and enjoys activities like drums, friends, and cross country, while our 9yo son loves piano, remote control cars, and video games. We value connection as a family, especially sharing meals and meaningful conversations, and are looking for someone who can become a fun, engaging presence in our children’s summer. Our ideal summer includes a mix of structured activities and flexibility, with plenty of opportunities for the kids to stay active, explore new interests, and get out of their routines.
A bit about you: You bring a fun, youthful energy and know how to connect with school-aged kids in a way that feels natural and engaging. You are creative and proactive, able to motivate kids to try new things and balance screen time with active, enriching experiences. You are confident setting boundaries while still keeping things fun, and you know how to “meet kids where they are” to build trust and rapport. You’re outgoing, active, and can come up with ideas that make kids excited to participate. Bonus points if you can support light academic engagement in a fun, low-pressure way.
Job Duties: Plan and lead engaging daily activities, including 1–2 outings or structured activities each day to keep the kids active and entertained. Provide transportation for activities (including picking up from summer classes) and supervise playdates or outings as needed. Support light academic activities such as reading, practicing math skills, or library visits. Assist with meal and snack supervision (especially supporting a child who enjoys cooking), and handle light household tasks such as dishes, tidying up, and taking out the trash. Occasionally provide pet check-ins and light household support during family travel. “Text NANNY to 206-752-6917 to apply and schedule your interview in under 3 minutes.
