Houston | Enthusiastic Rotational Nanny Wanted For Curious And Active Family

Open
Nationwide

This warm Houston, Texas family of five is seeking an engaging rotational nanny to support their curious, active children in an intentional, travel-ready home.

  • Location: Houston, Texas
  • Ages of children: 1, 3, and 5 years old
  • Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
  • Schedule: Full-time rotational schedule, guaranteeing 84 hours per week from 7:15am to 7:15pm. The family does 7-on / 7-off rotations during the school year and 14-on / 14-off rotations during the summer when travel is more frequent.
  • Compensation: The family is offering $38-40/hour based on the 84-hour/week schedule during on weeks, which equates to an annualized base compensation of $105k-$110k/year.
  • Benefits: 12 days of paid time off per year, paid holidays, full healthcare and dental coverage, a vehicle for professional use, and access to a 401k savings program with matching. Relocation assistance may be available for the right candidate.
  • Live-in/Live-out: Live-out. Private room provided when traveling with the family. The family prefers candidates who are already local to Houston or have ties to the area.

Household dynamic:

  • This thoughtful, adventurous Houston family of five is seeking a warm, engaging rotational nanny to join their household team. Their 5-year-old son is full of playful energy and curiosity, their 3-year-old daughter delights in creativity and imagination, and their 1-year-old daughter is a joyful, growing explorer.
  • Both parents value healthy living, intentional parenting, and shared experiences—from family walks with their dog to cultural outings, outdoor adventures, and cozy time reading aloud together. Dad has a busy, high-travel career, and Mom stays home and enjoys working alongside the nanny throughout the day. The family travels often, both domestically and internationally, and enjoys spending time with extended family. They already have one wonderful Adventure Nanny and a full-time housekeeper on staff, and are excited to welcome another long-term teammate who will grow with their family.

Ideal candidate:

  • This role is ideal for a warm, proactive nanny who is equally energized by engaging with the children and helping the household run smoothly. The family values someone developmentally attuned and creative with the kids, while also organized and thoughtful about supporting the children’s needs and daily rhythms. All three children attend school five days a week, so while mornings, afternoons, and evenings are centered on childcare, the family appreciates a candidate who can assist with light child-related household support during the day (organizing kids’ areas, preparing healthy meals, managing supplies, and handling occasional errands).
  • Responsibilities include fostering a safe, loving environment where the children can grow and thrive, engaging them in creative, age-appropriate activities such as reading, arts, outdoor play, and cultural outings. Core duties include supporting school and extracurricular routines, preparing healthy meals, and helping anticipate and manage the children’s logistics (schedules, gear, laundry, packing/unpacking). During school hours, the nanny will focus on light child-related household support and preparation for afternoon activities.
  • The nanny will also provide dependable, full-charge care when the parents are away. The family values collaboration and seeks someone who brings both heart and foresight to the role—sharing ideas for supporting the children’s development and partnering closely with parents, the co-nanny, and the housekeeper. Since travel is a regular part of this position, both domestically and internationally, the nanny should be flexible and comfortable maintaining routines and structure for the children while on the go.

Qualifications:

  • 5 years of professional childcare experience
  • Travel nanny experience
  • Available to travel frequently for extended periods of time
  • Valid driver’s license
  • Valid passport
  • Able to swim and care for children in water
  • Dog-friendly
  • Able to live-out during off-duty rotations
  • Required vaccinations include Flu, Tdap, and MMR
