Household dynamic:

  • This loving, active family is seeking an experienced nanny to care for and support their two young children. Their 2.5-year-old is a bright, high-energy, affectionate son who is already chatty and curious, with a keen sense of humor. He warms quickly to bubbly, interactive personalities, and getting down on his level with trucks, stuffed animals, and playdough is the fastest way to build a relationship with him. In September, he will begin a part-time preschool program. The family’s younger son is a sweet, calm 5-month-old. Their home has several dedicated play spaces and a small backyard, and both boys love to snuggle and read in quieter moments. The family prioritizes time spent outdoors and exploring, and has many playgrounds within walking distance of their home that their son adores visiting. They are seeking a nanny who can help support their child's activities, including driving to and from their son's academy, the zoo, local parks, beaches, and various activities such as soccer, music, and art classes. They hope to find a candidate who can maintain an enriching and supportive environment for their children.
  • Both parents spend most of their time outside the home, yet are engaged and hands-on parents who prioritize their time with their children. One parent always stays home when the children are sick, and both attend all doctor appointments. They describe their household as laid-back and competent and hope to foster a collaborative spirit with their nanny. The family travels for several weeks throughout the year and typically does not require the nanny to join them. This means the candidate can anticipate enjoying at least three weeks of guaranteed paid vacation, allowing plenty of time to recharge or pursue their own travel plans.

Ideal candidate:

  • This position is ideal for a kind, experienced, playful, and engaging nanny who brings high energy, creativity, and a grounded presence. The family seeks a nanny who approaches each day as an opportunity for enrichment and is invested in the children's development, fostering learning through play, exploration, and active engagement. The nanny will take the lead in creating a stimulating and developmentally rich environment, balancing outdoor outings with cozy, quiet moments such as reading and snuggling. A warm and upbeat candidate who can connect naturally with children will be a wonderful fit. The ideal nanny will be perceptive, resourceful, and adaptable, able to tune into each child’s needs, maintain a healthy and engaging daily rhythm, and prepare nutritious meals with genuine care. The family is excited to partner with someone who is communicative, capable, affectionate, and nurturing, someone who can support their children for years to come.
  • Responsibilities include creating an environment for the children 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, and coordinating activities.
  • While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has travel and family assisting experience.

Qualifications:

  • 3 years of professional childcare experience
  • Knowledge and experience with age-appropriate developmental milestones for infants and toddlers
  • Valid driver's license
  • Partners, family members, and/or pets cannot be housed in any temporary or long-term accommodations provided by the family
