What are entry level nannies?

Entry level nannies are childcare professionals who are new to the nanny profession or have limited prior experience. They typically assist families with basic childcare duties such as supervising children, preparing simple meals, organizing playtime, and helping with homework. Entry level nannies may also do light housekeeping related to the children. They often work under the guidance of more experienced caregivers or parents and are eager to learn and grow in their roles.

Work EnvironmentLonger-term, consistent care in family homesOccasional, short-term care, often sporadic

Job description

Company Description

Join one of the fastest-growing fields in healthcare in an entry-level job that lets you work with kids and spend your day doing meaningful work. As a Behavior Technician, you will help kids with autism learn and grow!

Do you cringe at the thought of a life tied to a desk, preferring hands-on work that gets you up and moving? Do you want to help others, while bringing home a paycheck in one of the fastest growing fields in healthcare? Do you crave work-life balance-and dare to have a life outside of work? 

If so, you might be a good fit for a behavior technician position, an entry-level career that involves helping children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a range of conditions that can affect a kid's ability to socialize, play, and communicate. Our behavior techs undergo free training to work with our team to deliver applied behavior analysis (ABA), a therapy that uses play-based activities to help kids build skills.

Once you learn the ropes of ABA, opportunities are ripe for you to take on more responsibility, grow your career, and even earn a promotion in as little as six months!

So, what are you waiting for?
