Household dynamic:

  • This caring, hardworking WA-based family is seeking a nanny/household manager to join them in caring for and nurturing their 2-year-old daughter and maintaining an organized home. She is playful, imaginative, and loves building, especially with Duplos, reading, numbers, and exploring through hands-on play. The nanny will take the lead in providing attentive, nurturing care - planning engaging, developmentally appropriate activities within the home, supporting her growing interest in early learning (including language and foundational math concepts), preparing meals with awareness of her mild milk and egg allergies, and maintaining her routines and play spaces. The family has intentionally created a rich and engaging home environment, with multiple play spaces including a play structure with a slide, a craft area, a reading nook, and imaginative play zones. While they value outdoor experiences, they currently have an inflexible boundary that caregiver-led activities remain within the home.
  • The family describes themselves as organized, private, playful, and active, balancing the demands of running a business with a strong desire to be present, hands-on parents. Education has played a meaningful role in their lives, and they are passionate about giving their daughter every opportunity to learn and grow while also embracing the joy, silliness, and imagination of childhood. The household is well-supported by a weekly housekeeper, a private chef, and a part-time household assistant, and the nanny will play a key role in helping oversee and complement these systems. Travel is minimal (typically under two weeks per year, often to California or Hawaii). Dad works primarily in-office and Mom has hybrid work (three days in-office and two days at-home); during busier seasons at work, Mom will rely more heavily on childcare support and welcomes someone who is flexible and willing to pivot to household support during quieter times while Mom has quality time with their daughter.

Ideal candidate:

  • This position is ideal for a calm, driven, nurturing, and proactive person who finds joy in supporting a toddler’s love of learning and her overall well-being. The family will appreciate a high-energy, engaging individual who can thoughtfully guide their daughter’s development in an enriching and joyful way.
  • For supporting the household, the ideal candidate is highly organized and intuitive, someone who finds satisfaction in maintaining order, anticipating the family’s needs, and keeping things running smoothly. The right candidate will be comfortable pivoting priorities depending on the family’s needs. During busy work periods, the candidate will confidently take the lead on childcare. When Mom has more flexibility to spend time with her daughter, the candidate will lean into household support. The role is perfect for someone adaptable, dependable, and respectful of family boundaries, including a strong preference for in-home childcare.  
  • This role is 70% childcare and 30% household management that will adapt to the family’s needs. Responsibilities include creating an environment for the child to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks, including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, organizing of children’s areas, occasional errands, before and after school routines, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. Household management duties include running errands, grocery shopping, administrative work, coordinating vendors, overseeing/managing the family’s household staff, and managing the family calendar.
  • While not a requirement for the role, the family would give strong preference to candidates who can speak Mandarin. Early childhood education (ECE) units or an education in child development would also be a huge plus.  

Qualifications:

  • At least 3 years of professional childcare experience
  • Knowledge and experience with toddlers
  • Knowledge of child development and milestones
  • Open to household management/family assisting duties
  • Valid driver's license for household management/family assisting duties
  • Partners, family members, and/or pets cannot be housed in any temporary or long-term accommodations provided by the family
