Can't you just have two clauses in the query, one that does join and one that does the same search again but with additional rule of not having a parentID? Then nested documents match first clause and get "joined" into the parent record. And non nested documents would match by themselves. I think you could even use local parameter variables to avoid repeating the common query.
