Full-Time Nanny Westfield / Indianapolis, Indiana

Why This Role Stands Out

This isn’t just a childcare job — it’s a long-term professional partnership with a warm, caring family in Westfield, Indiana who treats their nanny as an essential member of the household team. You’ll have a clear role, real structure, a competitive compensation package, and a family who deeply values what you bring. If you are an experienced full-time nanny with autism support experience looking for a long-term placement in the Indianapolis area, this is the role for you.

• About the Family This warm, culturally connected family — fluent in both Portuguese and English — is raising two young children in Westfield, Indiana.
• They are intentional, grounded parents who lead with emotional awareness and structure.
• They value consistency, calm leadership, and genuine connection, and they are looking for a nanny who will grow with their family for years to come.
• They are not looking to fill a position.
• They are looking for the right person — someone they can trust, invest in, and build a lasting partnership with.

About the Children Child 1

age 6 Their oldest child has an autism diagnosis and is a bright, spirited child who thrives with predictability, movement, and a caregiver who brings calm, proactive energy. She does best with smooth transitions, visual cues, and plenty of physical engagement — outdoor play, scooter rides, playground time, sensory activities, and structured movement throughout the day. She responds beautifully to a caregiver who reads her cues and stays one step ahead.

Child 2

age 4 Their younger child is affectionate, playful, and independent-spirited. He thrives with encouragement, sibling connection, and a structured environment that still leaves room for creativity and exploration.
