Sea Cliff, CA | Engaging Nanny Wanted For Loving Bay Area FamilyLearn More

- Location: Sea Cliff, San Francisco, CA
- Ages of children: 2.5 years old and 5 months old
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 45 hours per week, with the general schedule falling on Monday through Thursday from 7:30am to 5:00pm and Friday from 7:30am to 2:00pm or 3:00pm.
- Compensation: The family is offering $50-55/hour based on the 45-hour/week schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation in the $123,500-$135,850/year range. The family may be open to a higher compensation package commensurate with experience.
- Benefits: The family is open to providing paid time off, paid holidays, a health insurance reimbursement/stipend, and a vehicle for professional use.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out
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
This position is open to all Adventure Nannies candidates who are legally able to work in the US.

Noe Valley, CA | Engaging Nanny Wanted For Creative Bay Area FamilyLearn More
This creative, social Bay Area family is seeking an emotionally attuned, engaging career nanny to nurture and care for their curious, playful children as they grow, explore, and reach important developmental milestones.
- Location: Noe Valley, San Francisco, California
- Ages of children: 4 and 1.5 years old
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 42 hours per week, with the general schedule falling on Monday through Thursday from 9:30am to 8:00pm, with options for extra hours if wanted.
- Compensation: The family is offering $50-55/hour based on the 42-hour/week schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation of $117,000-$128,700 annual range. The family may be open to a higher compensation package commensurate with experience.
- Benefits: The family is open to providing paid time off, paid holidays, paid sick days, a health insurance reimbursement, and mileage reimbursement.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out.
Household dynamic:
- This creative, social Bay Area family of four is seeking a nanny who can engage with their children and guide them as they grow, explore, and reach key developmental milestones. They have two spirited children, ages 4 and 1.5. Their daughter attends preschool full-time on weekdays and is especially drawn to art, reading, make-believe, and early math concepts, while their younger son is active and playful and is currently building language skills. Both children are energetic and love to stay busy with creative activities. The family values curiosity, creativity, and emotional awareness, and they hope to partner with a nanny who enjoys engaging deeply with children’s learning and development.
- Both parents lead a busy, vibrant lifestyle. They would love the nanny to be actively engaged with the children during work hours to prevent them from wandering into the parent’s offices during the day. In their free time, they balance taking the children to the beach with “eat dumpling and watch the sunset” picnics, enjoying good food and the outdoors. They are interested in getting the children more involved in hiking, but without pushing them too hard. The family also delights in visiting the farmers' market, strolling around the city, and having friends over for social gatherings, large and small. The family travels roughly two weeks per year, with destinations including Hawaii, Japan, Aspen, Canada, and Arizona, and would love a nanny who is open to traveling with them, as well as sometimes staying home and taking care of the kids while the parents travel. They are also supported by an early morning nanny as well as a housekeeper who comes thrice a week.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a career nanny who is warm, engaging, and deeply passionate about working with young children. The ideal candidate brings a balance of calm presence and joyful energy, someone who can run alongside two active children while also modeling emotional steadiness and patience. The family is seeking a candidate who can naturally narrate the world around them and answer all their curious "why" questions, engaging the children in conversation, wordplay, and storytelling to support their language development and understanding of the world. The perfect candidate approaches children with curiosity and amusement rather than control, guiding them toward emotional awareness, problem-solving, and positive social interactions. Someone skilled at helping children navigate mistakes with reassurance and calm explanations, reinforcing that learning and growth come from trying again, will be a wonderful fit.
- The family is seeking a nanny who is high-energy, confident, and able to work independently, while also being emotionally intuitive and able to read the room. The candidate should be able to create a deeply engaging and interactive environment where the kids feel seen, supported, and inspired. This is a minimal-screen-use home -- the older child loves taking photos, and the parents sometimes use images or short videos to explain concepts, but otherwise phone use is minimized.
- 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 with other kids.
- While not a requirement, the family would love to work with a candidate who has a musical inclination, such as singing or playing ukulele.
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Knowledge and experience with toddlers through pre-school-age children
- Knowledge of child development
- Understand basic math (addition, division, multiplication)
- Travel experience
- Valid driver's license
- Valid passport
- Able to swim and care for children in/around water.

- This friendly, welcoming European family of four has lived in a beautiful neighborhood in South Miami for 2.5 years and is seeking a nanny to care for their 2-month-old son. Mom will be returning to work in June 2026, and the family needs a dedicated, full-time nanny to provide attentive care for the baby. The nanny will support the baby’s daily routines, developmental milestones, and overall well-being, while occasionally engaging with their almost 4-year-old daughter. Their daughter is described as a creative, curious, enthusiastic, articulate, and playful child who enjoys staying active. She attends pre-K3 full-time and participates in sports and creative activities.
- Both parents, originally from the UK and the Netherlands, lead busy professional lives, with Mom working from home in a separate office while keeping their children at the center of their world. The family enjoys staying fit and active and loves travel and cultural activities. Their extended relatives all live in Europe, so family members visit and stay with them several times each year, typically for one to two weeks at a time. The family also travels internationally to spend time with relatives, usually spending three to four weeks in Europe during the summer and occasionally bringing a nanny for part of the trip. Throughout the year, they also enjoy occasional long weekends and short trips within the United States. The household operates with the support of a collaborative team, including a nanny for their daughter who assists with household errands while she is at school and a full-time housekeeper who manages cleaning, laundry, and family meal preparation. This is also a multilingual home. While English is the primary language spoken within the family, Spanish is also spoken in the home.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a positive, loving, and caring nanny who genuinely enjoys caring for their newborn and provides nurturing, structured care for their baby, supporting healthy routines and early development during these important early months. The family values someone who leads with kindness and warmth while also bringing professionalism and thoughtful engagement to the role. The ideal candidate is adaptable, resourceful, and team-minded, with a curious, intellectual approach to their childcare. While infant care is the primary responsibility, the family would love to work with a candidate who also finds joy engaging with their playful, sporty toddler. The right nanny will enjoy engaging with a bright, energetic preschooler who loves to chat, play games, and stay active - whether matching her playful energy or bringing a calm, steady presence while remaining engaging and attentive. A strong communicator with a proactive mindset and a consistently positive attitude will be an excellent fit!
- Responsibilities include creating an environment for the children to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks, including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, washing bottles/pump parts, organizing children’s areas, occasional errands, coordinating age-appropriate activities inside and outside of the home, and traveling with the family throughout the year.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who holds a bachelor's degree, ECE units, or has a background in child development. A Spanish speaker would also be a plus, as some of the other household staff speak Spanish.
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Knowledge and experience for infants through toddlers
- Travel experience
- Experience working on a team or in a fully-staffed environment
- Able to swim and care for children in water

Boulder, CO | Organized Nanny/Family Assistant Wanted For Active FamilyLearn More
Nature-loving, creative, and international family seeks an exceptionally organized and emotionally attuned nanny/family assistant to support their two children and help sustain the rhythm of their progressive, globally engaged lives.
- Location: Boulder, Colorado
- Ages of children: 10 and 13 years old
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: The family guarantees full-time compensation, with a minimum of 40 hours paid each week. While actual hours will typically range from 22 to 40 depending on the parents’ schedules, they deeply value flexibility, including occasional weekends and overnights, always communicated in advance and sincerely appreciated.
- Compensation: The family offers highly competitive compensation starting at $50–$55 per hour, with a guaranteed 40-hour workweek ($104,000–$115,000 annual base minimum). They are happy to exceed this range for an exceptional candidate whose experience and talents are a truly outstanding fit. The family does not want salary to be an issue for the right candidate.
- Benefits: The family is happy to provide benefits such as paid time off, paid holidays, a health insurance stipend, and relocation assistance if needed. They are also eager to work with the right candidate to understand what will help them feel comfortable, supported, and truly valued.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out
- Other Notes: The family would prefer someone who is comfortable using their personal car for work-related responsibilities.
Household dynamic:
- This globally minded family of four is seeking a nanny/family assistant to support their growing children and dynamic household. They have two children, ages 13 and 10, who attend a progressive school and are bright, curious, and independent thinkers.
- Their eldest has developed into a thoughtful and creative young teenager with a passion for music and filmmaking. Both children are academically strong, with a wide range of interests spanning art, mathematics, science, and philosophy. They are also avid readers, and their bedrooms resemble mini libraries.
- The younger son loves the outdoors and thrives when he’s active, whether hiking, mountain biking, or heading out on new adventures, often inspired by the family’s current nanny, a former ski coach. During the school year, both children stay busy with after-school activities, while summers allow for more flexibility and downtime. Both children are emotionally aware and genuinely enjoy spending time with people who are curious, thoughtful, and passionate about a wide range of interests. They love to learn from everyone around them.
- The nanny will play an important role in keeping the family’s daily routines running smoothly, including school schedules, transportation, activities, and vendor coordination. As the children grow into their pre-teen and teen years, they’re becoming more independent in managing homework and responsibilities. This role is less hands-on caregiving than it once was, and more about being a mentor and coach, supporting their interests while helping them build confidence and independence.
- The family places a high value on a candidate with exceptional organizational and project management skills, who can seamlessly serve as a family assistant while confidently stepping into a project leadership role within the household. This nanny role will be supported by additional household staff, including a part-time weekend nanny, an outdoor activities coach, and other team members responsible for household maintenance and cleaning. The position comes with incredible and daily access to the outdoors. The family’s home sits right alongside the magnificent Front Range, with hiking and biking trails steps away and abundant opportunities to enjoy nature and local wildlife every day.
- The family is international, with multiple home bases, and travels up to three months each year. Some travel is undertaken independently, while at times the nanny may be invited to join. Frequent destinations include Hawaii, Australia, Europe, Canada, and Asia, with adventure travel to remote and far-flung locations also playing a significant role in the family’s well-being. When the family travels, and the nanny is not required to accompany them, full-time guaranteed hours are maintained, often resulting in additional paid time off beyond the standard PTO. The family aims to provide at least 1–2 months’ notice for all travel periods.
- The family maintains a tranquil and low-profile yet dynamic lifestyle, with routines that shift throughout the year, following the school year and school holiday calendar. One parent works from home in a dedicated office space, while the other travels and is home approximately half the time, causing schedules and support needs to vary. For example, when both parents are present, the nanny’s requested hours will be fewer than the guaranteed 40 hours per week. This role requires adaptability, comfort with schedule fluctuations, and a collaborative approach when working alongside other caregivers and household staff.
- The family places great importance on kindness, curiosity, independence, and a sense of humor, striving to create a calm, steady home with clear routines and open, respectful, and proactive communication. The parents are highly engaged and experienced in working with children, and they are deeply committed to their children’s growth and development. They prioritize creating a consistent structure while allowing the children ample space to explore their emerging interests and develop their individual identities. They are intentional in selecting new experiences that foster confidence and independence. Screen time is limited, and the children maintain daily responsibilities within the home.
- The family maintains close relationships with their previous nannies, viewing these connections as foundational to the children’s lives. They hope to find a candidate with whom they can build a long-term partnership, ideally spanning multiple years.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for an extremely organized, proactive, and highly executive-functioning nanny/family assistant who thrives in a dynamic, ever-changing household environment. The right candidate takes pride in creating structure and efficiency, managing routines, calendars, schedules, and developing effective weekly systems. This role is well-suited for someone detail-oriented and highly intuitive, who can anticipate needs, manage multiple moving pieces, and execute tasks without repeated direction. Strong communication, project management, and decision-making skills are essential. In addition, the nanny/family assistant will also play a key role in coordinating and, at times, managing part-time caregivers, acting as a “team manager” to ensure consistency and smooth operations.
- The ideal candidate brings a calm, steady, capable presence and is confident in supporting middle school-aged children by fostering independence, accountability, and strong routines. A genuine appreciation for progressive, inquiry-based, experiential parenting is important (the children were previously in Montessori and Reggio Emilia schools), along with the ability to support the children’s growth in developing their executive functioning and self-management skills. The family cares deeply about seeing each child as their own individual and helping them reach their own individual potential.
- The candidate will connect with each child’s unique personality, encouraging their oldest’s creativity in music and film, while actively engaging in outdoor activities such as hiking and biking with their youngest. A nurturing, learning-oriented mindset is key, along with the ability to support the children’s academic organization. Flexibility is essential, as the schedule evolves throughout the year, and the candidate should be comfortable adapting hours and responsibilities accordingly.
- The family would love to find someone who can take on a significant percentage of the mental overhead involved in managing the children’s schedules and household logistics, while still collaborating with them on final decisions regarding classes, activities, and broader family planning. The candidate should be comfortable with technology, as the family uses Google Calendar, Docs, and other tech tools to coordinate schedules and keep the household organized.
- While not a strict requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has a Bachelor’s degree, has experience in education or child development, and has spent time working or traveling internationally.
Qualifications:
- 3+ years of professional educational or childcare experience, and 5+ years of experience preferred
- Family assisting experience
- Extremely organized and detail-oriented with strong project management skills
- Knowledge and experience with preteens/teens
- Valid passport and open to travel (both domestic and international)
- Willingness to use personal vehicle for professional use preferred
- Comfortable navigating Google Calendar and Google Docs, and other tech tools to coordinate family schedules and organization
- Valid driver’s license and a clean/safe driving record are mandatory
This position is open to all Adventure Nannies candidates who are legally able to work in the US.

The family is also a home to a rambunctious dog, so candidates should be comfortable working in a pet-friendly home.
- Both parents are hands-on and highly involved in their children’s lives. This is a vibrant, community-minded home that regularly welcomes grandparents, children spending active time with cousins and extended family. Weekends are often spent at the family’s multiple residences in Tahoe and Mendocino. The family enjoys extensive international travel, having visited more than a dozen countries in the past year. The family would love to work with someone who enjoys moving and interacting with people, and is always up for adventure, whether exploring locally or internationally. This is a fully-staffed home and maintains a strong team ethos, where collaboration and communication are essential. This is a busy, connected home where the nanny will rarely work solely and will regularly work in partnership with parents, therapists, educators, and other nannies.
Ideal candidate:
- This role is ideal for someone with a blend of humor, professionalism, and a strong understanding of supporting a neurodivergent child. The family’s son requires hands-on support for personal care and daily living skills as well as coaching in peer relationships, social flexibility, and resilience. They are seeking a warm, playful yet structured and consistent nanny who can coach challenging social interactions, guide playdates with calm confidence. A strong candidate actively seeks out playdates and social opportunities and is comfortable meeting new people and in new environments. The ideal candidate should be able to be thoughtful in holding the child accountable to rules and expectations, skilled at maintaining gentle yet firm boundaries, and interested in helping siblings understand and support their brother’s differences.
- The role requires physical agility, including the ability to run short distances and calmly intervene in moments of dysregulation or elopement while maintaining safety with care and composure. A strong candidate will be developmentally attuned and able to integrate learning, life skills, and communication goals into daily routines in alignment with the child’s therapeutic and educational plans. The nanny will work closely with the child’s therapeutic team. The right candidate will be willing to track behavioral and therapeutic data under professional direction, comfortable implementing structured plans designed by clinicians, and open to engaging with peer-reviewed research and evidence-based interventions. Curiosity about child development and neurodiversity is important, along with the ability to provide clear structure, consistency, and emotional attunement. The family is seeking a highly organized caregiver who can confidently coordinate with a multidisciplinary team, manage personal care needs, and utilize adaptive tools as needed. Emotional and physical resilience are key, as is a long-term mindset and enthusiasm for the challenges and rewards of the role. Candidates who bring a science-first mindset, value inclusivity (anti-racist, LGBTQ+ affirming, feminist), and lead with kindness and work ethic will align well with the family’s values. Flexibility is also important, as the role involves navigating changing plans and thriving in a wide range of environments—from outdoor adventures to high-end events.
- Responsibilities include fostering an environment where the children can grow and thrive, managing school drop-off and pick-up. The nanny will be responsible for coordinating transportation to therapies, after-school programs, and medical appointments, maintaining the middle child’s calendar, and collaborating closely with his educators, therapists, and care team. Additional duties include organizing outings, coordinating playdates and in-home activities, preparing light meals and snacks for the children, and traveling with the family during school breaks and summer months. Candidates should bring a flexible, positive, and proactive approach to shifting schedules and environments.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate with any of the following:
- Background in child development, special education, OT, PT, or behavioral therapy
- Experience in collecting and tracking behavioral data
- Experience coaching social skills in real-world environments
- Musical interests
- Outdoor education or wilderness experience

- Ability to provide a 10-year-old with physical support and safety, including running short distances
- Strong swimmer, and comfortable with ocean water activities and sports
- Comfort in wilderness environments, including hiking, trail navigation, navigating rugged terrain, and wildlife awareness
- Strong executive functioning and attention to detail
- Willingness to travel with the family throughout the year (weekends, school holidays, international trips)
- Valid driver’s license
- Valid passport
- Dog-friendly!
- Partners, family members, and/or pets cannot be housed in any temporary or long-term accommodations provided by the family

Bali, Indonesia | Visionary Private Educator Wanted For Engaged, Growth-Oriented FamilyLearn More
California family in Bali seeks an experienced private educator to elevate math and literacy using the Common Core set of standards through daily one-on-one instruction.
- Location: Sibang, Bali, Indonesia
- Ages of children: 7, 10, and 12 years old at the start of the contract. The family also has a 3-year-old.
- Start date/Contract dates: 9-month contract beginning in mid-August.
- Schedule: Full-time. The general teaching schedule will occur Monday - Friday around the children's full-time school schedule (generally a few hours of teaching in the mornings and after school). Additional hours for lesson prep, curriculum building, and communicating progress with the parents will occur on a flexible schedule.
- Compensation: The family is offering a salary of $80,000 - $110,000 for this 9-month contract dependent on experience and the agreed-upon schedule. The family may be open to candidates who are seeking a higher compensation package commensurate with experience.
- Benefits: The family is open to providing benefits, including paid time off, health insurance and/or a health insurance stipend, a fully-serviced home in Bali that is welcome to partners as well, and relocation assistance.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-in. Fully serviced house in the family’s community will be provided.
Household dynamic:
- This open-minded, curious, and results-oriented family from California is currently living in Bali for three years, and they are eagerly looking for a private educator to support their children's development and educational milestones. Their four children are enrolled full-time at an international school in Bali, which has many positive attributes. While the school covers all core subjects—reading, math, science, etc.—and is conducted in English, it is far less academically rigorous than their school in California. The oldest three children, ages 7, 9, and 12 years old, want and need additional support in math and literacy following the Common Core set of standards to ensure a smooth transition back into their California school in 2028. The primary role of the private educator will be to provide one-on-one tutoring in math and literacy (reading and writing) for the family’s three daughters. Currently, the children have been benefiting from daily in-person tutoring with a teacher at home, which has boosted their happiness and confidence. The family is committed to making their current school experience work by providing additional daily tutoring so that their children build a strong foundation in math and literacy. This approach will keep their future options open as they grow and explore the world. The family also has an outdoor ginger cat.
- Both parents work from home in a dedicated office space and are very engaged in the children’s learning journey. They will be actively collaborating in setting curriculum goals and development. The family setup in Bali is both adventurous and serene. They are set in a gated, fully-serviced community of a dozen homes along the river, a short walk from the children’s school. It is a quiet, lush, pedestrian, and hugely convenient neighborhood with cafes and small, healthy restaurants. The children are thriving, and the family feels a sense of joy in living in beautiful and spiritual Bali. The household operates as a team; everyone is expected to work hard and contribute. They value being solution-oriented; setbacks present an opportunity to learn and improve. The family employs two full-time staff members for cleaning and house management, and a nanny to help care for the children and cook for the family. Their family motto is “never give up." Coming from the action-packed environment of California, they value both sides of the coin: enjoying life and being aware and engaged in their daily experiences, and understanding that hard work and getting the job done to the absolute best of their ability truly matters. They treat their household members like family and take each role on their team seriously. The family regularly travels within Indonesia and throughout Southeast Asia.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a calm, driven, experienced, and passionate private educator who is excited to join a close-knit, adventurous team in the heart of Bali. The ideal candidate is self-starting, motivated, optimistic, ambitious, and exceptionally organized. The family values this role tremendously and is genuinely excited for their children to flourish with the right educator. They believe teaching is a gift, and their children truly love to learn. The private educator will foster deep, meaningful learning while also building strong, trusting relationships with the children. This person will strengthen academic skills while also becoming an important and positive presence in their daily lives.
- Curriculum development and thoughtful lesson planning are central to this role. The private educator must be a confident leader who is adaptable and skilled at tailoring instruction to different learning styles and able to pivot when something is not working. The family is seeking someone who can build rigorous and cohesive math and literacy lessons. This role calls for someone with an ownership mindset. The ideal candidate approaches the position with initiative, accountability, and pride in their work.

- The right educator will also be excited about living in the tropics, open to new ideas, and able to accept changes in the plan and the weather.

A spirit of adventure, resilience, and openness to new experiences is important.
- The private educator will design and deliver individualized, high-quality instruction in math and literacy (reading and writing) for three elementary-aged children, supplementing their full-time schooling and ensuring alignment with higher academic standards. The candidate will select, develop, and continuously refine curricula in partnership with the parents to meet US elementary and middle school standards. The educator will prepare thoughtful lesson plans and materials, evaluate the children’s learning and experiences at school, and be able to integrate that into the curriculum as needed. Instruction should be tailored to each child’s unique learning style, academic goals, and natural interests. The candidate will thoughtfully execute daily 1:1 lesson plans that balance high academic standards with curiosity and engagement. The educator will establish clear learning goals and measurable outcomes, build a strong academic foundation, and hold bi-weekly touch-bases with parents to review data and refine direction, while independently leading day-to-day lesson execution.
- While not a requirement, the family would love to work with a candidate who has experience working as a private educator, experience working/living in / spending time in other countries, particularly developing countries, and can travel with the family throughout the year
Qualifications:
- Minimum of 5+ years of full-time teaching experience
- Bachelor's degree
- Know how to teach using the Common Core standards

- Ages of children: almost 3 years old and 6 months old
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 40 hours per week, with the general schedule falling on Monday through Friday from 7:00am to 3:00pm.
- Compensation: The family is offering $45-50/hour based on the 40-hour/week schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation in the $94-104k/year range. The family may be open to a higher compensation package commensurate with experience.

Household dynamic:
- This fun, loving international family of four has recently relocated from Portugal to Coconut Grove and is seeking a nanny to support and nurture their children as they build their life in Miami. Their almost 3-year-old daughter has not yet started school, though the family is actively exploring her school options, and their 6-month-old is in a sweet and highly developmental stage. Neither child has previously had a nanny - the candidate will play an important role in shaping their routines, engagement, and daily rhythm. Both parents care deeply about nurturing their girls both physically and intellectually, teaching them to love healthy food, reading, good quality music, and staying active. They encourage curiosity and initiative, and hope to raise bold, confident, and non-conforming thinkers through unconditional love and warmth. The nanny will take the lead in creating an enriching environment where curiosity and creativity are encouraged, fostering their daughters’ development through a thoughtful and developmentally minded care approach, and truly using the world as a classroom. Another beloved part of the family is their lovely dog, who they described as the kindest and calmest dog ever. This is a very dog-friendly home, and if the candidate has a well-behaved dog, they are more than welcome to bring them during working hours.
- This is an international family with a European background. Dad is Spanish, and Mom is Ukrainian. While Russian and Spanish are spoken in the home, English is the family’s primary language when communicating with each other. Their routine is fun, informal, playful, loving, and deeply connected. Much of their leisure time is spent in their living room getting lots of dog kisses, playing pretend with the girls, or heading to the beach. The family travels approximately 8 - 12 weeks per year, around school breaks, including summers outside of Miami. They are looking for someone genuinely excited to travel alongside them. They are also in the process of building a household team that will include a full-time housekeeper, a chef, and possibly a house manager, so the nanny’s primary focus will remain on child development and day-to-day care.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a warm, engaging, attuned, and curious nanny who is dedicated to supporting the growth of two young children. The family is looking for a kind, gentle, and intelligent nanny who is both emotionally and intellectually capable, as well as creative in fostering an interactive and educational environment, no matter where they are in the world. The family's expectations extend beyond simply caring for the children; they want the nanny to actively participate in their development. This includes preparing relevant activities, introducing them to good music, language, and art, helping them ask meaningful questions, and nurturing their curiosity and creativity. The family values a proactive and perceptive nanny who can fully engage with the children, identify opportunities to develop their interests, and encourage their natural curiosity. They love traveling, so someone experienced and eager to join in the family adventures would be a wonderful addition. As they are building their household team, someone collaborative and can easily navigate in a fully- staffed environment is important.
- 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 children’s areas, occasional errands, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has experience or familiarity with Montessori / Waldorf / Reggio Emilia, a Bachelor's degree or higher, and/or an Associate’s degree in a child or education-related field.
- Due to the family’s cultural preferences, they are seeking a candidate who maintains a minimalistic appearance, including a preference for no visible tattoos or body piercings while wearing everyday attire and swimwear
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Travel experience
- Able to swim and care for children in water
- Experience working in a team or fully-staffed environment
- Dog-friendly!
- Valid driver's license
- Valid passport

Ideal candidate:
- This role is ideal for a grounded, travel-ready, outdoor-loving professional who thrives in nature, is enthusiastic about young children, and aligns with intentional living. The family is seeking an experienced and playful nanny/family assistant who prioritizes child development and enjoys enriching, outdoor days with an energetic toddler. The ideal candidate is super curious about how to best support their son developmentally, whether it’s bringing new things, ideas, and concepts into the home. Someone who is excited about researching new developmental games, age-appropriate art projects, coming in with new meal prep ideas, or suggesting new activities/toys as needed will be highly appreciated. Both parents are deeply committed to emotional validation, independence, and resilience. Someone very comfortable creating and holding loving boundaries for toddlers and who values direct and heart-led communication will be a wonderful fit. They’re looking for someone who shares this philosophy, offering a secure, attachment-based approach while guiding their child through big emotions with empathy and confidence.
- A “third-parent” mindset is key: someone attuned to routines, confident in making autonomous decisions, and aware of how small shifts (like a missed nap) impact the day. Both parents are very hands-on and do not have typical work schedules. They are frequently in and out of the house throughout the day. This role requires someone who can seamlessly weave in and out of caring for our son, adjusting in real time when one of them steps in, and shifting to other household tasks as needed. This collaborative flow embodies their vision of a “third parent” - someone who is confident, attuned, and able to work fluidly alongside us while maintaining a child-first mindset. Since the family travels frequently between homes, the ideal candidate is comfortable with travel and excited by adventure. This is a childcare-first role, with light family assisting during downtime. Someone who can step in fully, including overnight care when needed, and balance warmth with professionalism will thrive in this position.
- This is a nanny/family assistant role with the majority of hours being child-focused. Responsibilities include creating a safe and loving environment for the child to grow and thrive! This includes but is not limited to meal prep, tidying, organizing of children’s areas, occasional errands, supporting daily routines, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. The family will provide a weekly checklist for the nanny or family assistant, listing extra items for child-related duties such as cleaning the car seat, swapping out toys, and more. Family-assisting duties include regularly tidying up the household, cleaning dishes, and occasionally doing laundry during the child’s naptime. The candidate will also assist with running errands, light meal planning and preparation, grocery shopping, coordinating vendors, and managing the family calendar.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who speaks fluent Spanish and is a trained lifeguard or has some swim training.
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Knowledge and experience with toddlers, especially boys
- Curious and passionate about childhood development
- Comfortable preparing healthy, clean, and organic meals for children
- Open to family-assisting duties
- Travel experience
- Travel-ready and comfortable traveling internationally and to developing countries
- Very strong swimmer - able to swim and care for children in oceans, pools, etc.
- Valid passport
- Valid driver's license
- Partners, family members, and/or pets cannot be housed in any temporary or long-term accommodations provided by the family
This position is open to all Adventure Nannies candidates who are legally able to work in the US. Out of respect for the privacy of the families we work with, we cannot provide any additional information about this position other than what has already been provided in the job description.

Their 15-month-old son is full of energy, sleeps well, doesn’t cry much, and loves interacting with people and other kids. He is really a dream baby, as his parents describe him. He is not in school yet, but they are considering enrolling him in half-day daycare as he gets older and his socialization needs change. Because the family has additional support from their nearby extended family, who have been pitching in, there may be times during the day when the candidate is not actively caring for the child.

They want to create a playful environment fueled by curiosity and child-led learning for their children and would love someone who can help foster that. The family enjoys traveling a few times a year, both locally and internationally, usually for one to two weeks at a time. Their trips are a mix of relaxing city or resort stays with a little adventure (think hiking and horseback riding) mixed in. Their child’s maternal grandparents live nearby and help out with childcare occasionally.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a calm, travel-ready, engaging, and perceptive nanny/family assistant who is excited to join their growing household and care for their happy, easygoing toddler. They are hoping to work with someone comfortable and proactive about planning playful and engaging activities based on their child’s interests, who brings new ideas, and works autonomously. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator who can talk things through, discuss things early, and approach things in a collaborative manner. They will value someone who is experienced, evidence-based, or science-based in their approach. Someone who is driven and motivated, who genuinely wants to do more than the bare minimum.
- Since the family travels for leisure and work, someone adaptable and excited to travel with them is important. The right candidate will also be confident and happy to support the family with light family assisting tasks to keep the household running smoothly. The family is excited to find someone who will be with them for the long term as they grow their family and be a consistent and supportive presence in their loving home.

Their two children, ages 8 and almost 5, are enrolled full-time in school and have a variety of afterschool activities that keep their days lively. Every other week, their 11 year old son also visits the home as part of a blended-family schedule. Days are anchored by morning care, after-school pickup, and a through-bedtime routine, with a little after-school overlap between the two nannies because of the children's separate activities. The family shares their home with a long-tenured team and value a positive, calm, and confident approach to childcare and want their rotational nanny/family assistants to take genuine ownership of the children’s routines, facilitate learning, and consistent boundaries, and create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for the children.
- This is a semi-formal, highly family-oriented household with multiple residences and an established team that includes an existing nanny, executive personal assistant, chef, housekeeping, and family-office support. This position formally reports to the Family Office, with a dotted line directly to the Principals. One parent maintains a demanding professional and travel schedule, while the other is closely involved with the children's lives and household team and logistics. The family travels extensively throughout the year, including weekends, holidays, much of the summer, and trips between residences in New York City, Upstate New York, Idaho, and Turkey, as well as other vacations and boat-based travel. This is a two-nanny/family assistant rotation that will balance hands-on childcare with family-assistant support while the children are at school, helping keep day-to-day logistics running smoothly. The household is fully staffed with a collaborative team, and the family is building a comprehensive nanny manual, so protocols, documentation, and consistency is important. Privacy is paramount, and the family hopes to find someone who thrives on a busy household and becomes a lasting, trusted part of their team.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for an educated, intuitive, emotionally intelligent, and adaptable rotational nanny/family assistant team who brings positive, calm energy to a dynamic household. The family is seeking confident and resilient self-starters who can anticipate needs, problem-solve independently, and remain composed and adaptable as schedules and priorities evolve. A strong understanding of early childhood and grade-school development will be key to meet each child where they are, facilitate learning through everyday experiences, support schoolwork and projects, and establish clear and consistent boundaries. The right candidates will be equally comfortable taking ownership of the children’s day-to-day needs and working collaboratively as part of an established household team.
- The family is looking for someone who genuinely embraces the balance of childcare and family-assistant responsibilities, as well as their active, travel-forward lifestyle.

Bright, funny, curious, and high-energy, she is starting kindergarten in the fall and loves to learn and stay engaged through play and activities, including dance and musical theater. She is sweet and well-behaved while also being strong-willed, and will thrive with a caregiver who enjoys genuinely playing with her, anticipates her needs, maintains thoughtful and consistent supervision, and confidently provides age-appropriate boundaries and guidance.
- The parents maintain a flexible co-parenting relationship and may occasionally swap custody days and hope to find someone who can approach these occasional adjustments collaboratively, with balancing days off or additional compensation arranged for extended coverage.

Household dynamic:
- This playful, growth-oriented, organized family in McLean, VA is seeking a rotational nanny to support their three children! Their oldest, age 4, currently attends a Montessori program. Their 2-year-old will be starting preschool this winter, and their youngest, at 4 months old, is currently cared for full-time at home. The children are easygoing, curious, and happiest when they are actively engaged — whether riding scooters, visiting parks, taking neighborhood walks, creating art, diving into imaginative games, or enjoying the backyard water table and sandbox. Their home also features a fantastic basement playroom complete with blocks, toys, and art supplies, offering plenty of opportunities for active and creative play. The family believes children are capable of remarkable things when given clear expectations, patient guidance, and consistent support.
- This is a dual-career household, with one parent working from home.

Ideal candidate:
- The ideal candidate is a self-confident, grounded, warm, and highly engaging rotational nanny who brings a strong nurturing mindset to their caregiving approach. The family is seeking a candidate with teaching or Montessori experience who understands how to meet children where they are developmentally and thoughtfully guide them as they learn to navigate emotions, build positive behaviors, and develop independence. They are drawn to a rotational nanny who pairs warmth and playfulness with confident leadership — setting clear and consistent boundaries, modeling respectful behavior, and helping the children develop good judgment, consideration for others, and age-appropriate self-help skills. The right person finds joy in creating fun and purposeful childhood experiences, from trips to parks, museums, and classes to art projects, imaginative play, outdoor exploration, and finding natural opportunities for learning throughout the day.
- The family values open communication and hopes to find a rotational nanny who is comfortable partnering closely with highly organized, involved parents. They would love to work with someone who has patience, consistency, and sound judgment in setting expectations and will actively collaborate alongside them to provide a unified, respectful approach to raising kind, well-rounded children. The ideal candidate will bring an empowering, can-do spirit to the household and understand how to keep three young children happily engaged while creating a calm, peaceful environment. They will be proactive, adaptable, and comfortable in taking ownership during their rotation while maintaining consistency with the family’s routines, expectations, and parenting philosophy.
- 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 children’s areas, occasional errands, before and after school routines, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has experience in natural consequences and boundary-setting, creating structured environments and fostering independence.

Little Rock, AR | Nurturing Nanny Wanted For Collaborative FamilyLearn More
This warm, collaborative family in Little Rock, AR is seeking a nurturing and patient nanny to support their two young children with responsive care, thoughtful developmental support, and enriching activities.
- Location: Little Rock, AR
- Ages of children: 1 and 3.5 years old
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 40 hours per week. The general schedule runs Monday through Thursday plus one weekend day (12 hours on Saturday or Sunday, timing flexible). Weekday shifts are set in advance and cycle between morning, midday, and evening blocks, with 10:00 AM–5:00 PM being the most typical. Any schedule changes are communicated well in advance; last-minute adjustments are paid at a 1.5x premium rate. This role also includes domestic and international travel, as well as occasional overnights throughout the year.
- Compensation: The family is offering $40–$45+/hour based on the 40-hour guaranteed weekly schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation of $83k–$94k+/year dependent on experience and the agreed-upon schedule.
- Benefits: The family is open to providing two weeks paid vacation, five paid sick days, six paid holidays plus two floating holidays, up to $500/month health reimbursement, up to $1,500/year professional development, a discretionary annual bonus, relocation assistance, and use of the family vehicle for on-the-job driving.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out
Household dynamic:
- This warm, structured, and collaborative Little Rock, AR family is seeking a nanny to support their two young children! Their older child is a 3.5-year-old boy who is joyful, affectionate, and generally easygoing, with a developmental disability, and will benefit from dedicated, compassionate care. He is nonspeaking and communicates through his expressions, vocalizations, routines, and individualized cues. He loves music, movement, books, sensory play, animals, outdoor adventures, and most of all, being in the water. He attends a full-time developmental preschool during the day and receives occupational, physical, and speech therapy, and will soon begin working more formally with augmentative communication. Their 1-year-old daughter is a curious and observant toddler. She thrives with responsive, playful one-on-one care through age-appropriate meals, books, music, movement, outdoor time, and engaging sibling experiences. The family has a friendly, older, low-energy dog, and candidates should be comfortable around pets and be willing to occasionally support light pet care.
- Mom is generally at home and enjoys being actively involved in the children's lives. Supporting the household includes biweekly cleaners, creating a coordinated, team-oriented environment that values clear communication and discretion. The family anticipates four or more domestic and international trips per year, totaling roughly three to four weeks, including a planned Disney World trip and a December Europe trip, with private accommodations and expenses covered and some personal time for the nanny to enjoy each destination when the care schedule allows. The family also hopes to find their forever home within one to two years, likely in California or Colorado. Although not required, they would love to find someone open to relocating with them and building a trusted, long-term relationship.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a nurturing, patient, emotionally steady, and highly safety-conscious nanny who is genuinely excited to support both children’s growth and development. The right candidate will bring warmth, curiosity, and a learning-oriented mindset, along with a genuine interest in supporting children with a wide range of developmental needs and abilities. Their son’s disability affects communication, mobility, and daily living skills, though he moves independently on the floor. He uses adaptive support for longer outings and requires hands-on assistance with mobility and personal-care routines, so candidates should be comfortable regularly lifting and transferring up to 50 pounds as he grows. He also has limited hazard awareness and is strongly drawn to water, making calm, continuous, and proactive supervision especially important. A candidate who is eager to learn his individualized communication cues and naturally weave communication, motor, sensory, and daily-living goals into play and everyday routines will be a wonderful fit. The family will provide training on his individualized care, safety, and medical plans. Given his love of the water, they especially value a confident swimmer who is comfortable providing attentive, hands-on supervision in and around water.
- The family would love a confident, experienced nanny who is equally comfortable collaborating with a hands-on parent and independently taking full charge of the children’s day. Strong communication and teamwork will be important, including proactive handoffs, photos, a brief daily log, and timely updates related to development, medication, or safety. The ideal candidate will be genuinely eager to learn from the children’s therapy team and thoughtfully carry recommended techniques into everyday care while providing consistency, attentiveness, and reliability. An adaptable, travel-ready nanny who is excited to join the family on adventures and grow with them for years to come will thrive in this role.
- 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, preschool pickup and selected therapy and hippotherapy appointments, coordinating activities, carrying out therapeutic carryover in daily play and routines, children's laundry and dishes, restocking, preparing the older child's meals to take to school, packing for travel and relocations, and traveling with the family throughout the year.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has experience with developmental disability or therapeutic/clinical care, augmentative communication or sensory play, and has a special education background or general education experience. The home embraces both Japanese and Chinese language and culture, and the family would love a Japanese- or Mandarin-speaking nanny to support natural, child-directed immersion. As the family looks ahead to their forever home, they would also value a candidate who is open to relocating with them within the next one to two years, likely to California or Colorado.
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Knowledge and experience with age-appropriate developmental milestones for toddlers
- Able to follow individualized written care, safety, and medical plans
- Willingness to attend therapy sessions and carry out therapist recommendations at home
- Genuine passion for and desire to work with a developmentally delayed child

What are the standard job responsibilities requested by your families?
Nanny positions vary based on the family’s needs. General duties include feeding, dressing, and bathing the child(ren), as well as planning and carrying out age-appropriate activities, driving children to their activities, and careful supervision at all times. Additional duties may include light housekeeping, meal preparation, laundry, errands, and general family assistant duties. While deep cleaning will not be part of your job, we always expect our nannies to pitch in to the overall cleanliness of the family’s environment, and leave the home as clean or cleaner than it was when they arrived.
Private educator positions also vary greatly and depend on whether the family is looking for a private educator only, or someone to work in a hybrid private educator/nanny role. Curriculum-building may or may not be a requirement, and additional skills such as familiarity with alternative education methods or children with unique circumstances are often required or preferred.
How many families and jobs do you have?
The number of families we’re currently working with changes every day, and depends on the season, location, skill set, and current market. We typically limit the number of families for whom we’re recruiting long-term placements to ensure they receive the time and attention they deserve.
How do you screen the families/have you ever chosen to not work with a family?
Our team speaks directly with each family over the phone multiple times, which gives us a great sense of their personalities, needs, and lifestyles.
Although we do not background check families (we don’t know of any agency who does), we research each family as much as we research our candidates. We collect references from current and past employees and conduct an internet screen so we feel confident their home will be a safe and positive workplace. Many of our families were referred through loyal past clients, which is an added endorsement.
We turn down approximately 80% of the families who reach out to us.
Is there a trial period?
During the interview process, we encourage families to have a paid trial of 1 to 7 days for each candidate.
What do I do if I'm not happy with my placement?
We want everyone to feel happy and comfortable. That’s why we spend so much time and effort getting to know our clients and their families, learning what’s important to them, and understanding how a domestic employee will fit in. The perfect fit—the first time—is not only a goal for parents, candidates, and the children; it is Adventure Nannies’ priority!
In addition, we provide ongoing support throughout your placement. Once a candidate is hired, we check in to see how things are going, provide training and check-in materials, and offer feedback from the family.
If you're not happy or comfortable, let us know.
We have a number of resources that can help create solutions for sustainable relationships. And if you feel the position is beyond repair, we’ll help you make your plan for notifying the family.
About Agency Fees and Compensation
Does becoming an Adventure Nanny candidate cost anything?
Absolutely not. Becoming a member of our roster is free. However, you must commit yourself to match our high standards of responsibility, professionalism, and punctuality. We expect clear, quick communication, and extreme discretion.
Does Adventure Nannies take a cut of candidates' pay?
No. Never. We charge a fee to families, and we advocate for our candidates’ requested rates and benefits (provided the requests line up with their level of experience). You set your own rates, and the family pays you directly.
What benefits do you suggest offering?
An important part of our role is educating both families and candidates on legal practices for hiring a domestic employee. A key facet of that is ensuring each candidate we place who is paid over the minimum annual threshold ($2,200 in 2020) is paid legally, or “on the books.”
Being paid legally is not only a basic qualification of any professional position, but it also protects you as an employee by offering unemployment, worker’s comp, and other benefits associated with working legally.
Whether or not you find a placement through Adventure Nannies, we encourage you to pursue positions that include legal pay. Accepting positions without legal pay put both you and the employing family in legal jeopardy that can result in back taxes, fines, or criminal action. It can also prevent you from receiving unemployment benefits at the conclusion of your position.
What is the average salary of your candidates?
Depending on location, job specifics, and details, our nanny positions typically range from $40 to $45+ per hour and private educator positions range from $45 to $50+ per hour.
At this time, all of our families offer a minimum of 40 guaranteed hours, paid weekly on the books. We also encourage families to provide health insurance assistance, paid time off, and other benefits to ensure the longevity of whomever they choose to hire!
Who is responsible for a candidate's travel expenses on a temporary or travel assignment?
The traveling family is responsible for their candidate’s transportation, lodging, and meals. We always recommend our families offer comfortable, private travel accommodations whenever possible.
In some cases, candidates may prefer to book their own travel and get reimbursed, but that step is always optional and based on the candidate’s preferences. Ability to do so and does not preclude candidates from being considered for positions.
