Family and Household Dynamics

A peek behind the front door...

Children's Ages: Care will be for two school-aged children, ages 9 and 6.

About the Children:

The family's 9-year-old son is bright, curious, friendly, imaginative, and loves learning. He is neurodivergent: twice-exceptional (ADHD/mild Autism Spectrum Disorder/highly gifted). He thrives with structure, consistency, preparation, and caregivers who understand that his needs may shift and change over time. He benefits from support with transitions, social situations, and impulse control, and does best with adults who are patient, calm, understanding, and proactive. He enjoys spending time with trusted adults and naturally gravitates toward older children and adults. The family is looking for someone who can build a strong connection with him while also encouraging positive peer relationships and independence. Collaboration with teachers and other professionals may occasionally be part of the role, as the family views their caregiver as an important member of their support team.
The family's 6-year-old daughter is also bright, curious, and imaginative. She is kind, loving, energetic, and incredibly social. While she can initially be a little timid in new situations, she quickly makes friends and is well-liked by her peers. She has a perfectionist streak and can become hesitant when faced with tasks that feel challenging, but she thrives with encouragement and positive reinforcement.

About the Family:

Dual work-from-home parents

About the Pets:

The family has one sweet, older hypoallergenic dog. Responsibilities may occasionally include taking the dog for a walk and a trip to the groomer.

Additional Notes:

They are seeking a long-term, trusted professional who will become an extension of their family. The family has previously had wonderful experiences with caregivers who were patient, kind, flexible, and truly understood how to support neurodivergent children.

Rated 5 out of 5

As a self-represented nanny for the last 8 years, I can say that I will never look for a new family without ABC again! I recently moved across the country and was very worried about finding the right family long distance…ABC was there every step of the way and made the whole process hassle free. I would recommend them to any career nanny looking for a great family, or for any family looking for a great nanny.

I have had the privilege of working with the first-rate staff at ABC Nannies in my job search and placement, as a Nanny and House Manager. Personal experience in this field, for over forty years, led me to seek the services of a placement agency with parallel experience and exceptional reputation. I have not been disappointed! ...I highly recommend working with them.

This company is worth their weight in GOLD! ABC is the most valuable asset to my housekeeping career, truly. Without them I would not be the success I am today. The families they represent are tip of the top, cream of the crop. They have matched me with families that I will keep in touch with for the rest of my life…and they just connected me with another super awesome family! I will be forever grateful.

It has been a true blessing to work for ABC Nannies. I know they have my best interest at heart and I could not be happier with my current position as a nanny and personal assistant to a wonderful family! I have worked for both their temporary service and full time placement service and have always had a great experience with the staff. Their customer service is top-notch and they are the best in Colorado!

My experience as a nanny with ABC Nannies has been nothing short of amazing! They are communicative, supportive, kind, and so helpful with finding amazing placements for both the nanny and the family. They are there to answer any questions, check in with how you’re feeling and if you’re happy with your placement, showing genuine care for everyone involved.

Working with ABC Nannies & Domestics has been a dream! ...I was recruited out of state and did quite a bit of research before choosing an agency I knew I could trust. I wanted to be represented by an agency with an exemplary reputation and ABC Nannies and Domestics has that in spades. I’m looking forward to working with them for many years.
