August 17, 2026 About the Family A wonderful, community-focused family in St. Paul is looking for a warm, creative, and fun nanny to join their team!
They have two children:
an 11-year-old boy and an almost 7-year-old girl. Their 11-year-old son has PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) autism.
Please note:
This is not a traditional behavioral therapy role. It requires a caregiver who prioritizes collaboration over control, connection over compliance, and building deep mutual trust. As a family, they love neighborhood outings—visiting local coffee shops, biking, playing at parks, and connecting with neighbors. Completing their family is a beloved dog, so candidates must be dog-friendly! If you are a patient, intuitive caregiver passionate about low-demand, supportive childcare, we would love to speak with you. Apply today to join Loving Care Home Services!
