Adding child records, nested form issues

Hi,

I have an app with three main tables: projects (parent), job routers (child), and tasks (grandchild). In my tasks (grandchild) table, the ref column to job routers (child) table is checked "Is a part of". In my job routers (child) table, the ref column to the projects (parent) table is checked "Is a part of". 

I am looking for a way for users to be able to add multiple tasks to a job router when they create a new job router. I thought the nested forms would be the way to do that but I'm not able to see an option to add any new tasks in my "create a new job router" form. I thought it would automatically show up if I had the "is a part of" box checked. Should I be going at this a different way? Should I create an action? If so, how do I get the new task action to automatically fill out the related information so that a user doesn't have to repeatedly enter the project name and job router name each time they add a new task?

Thank you!
