Household dynamic: 

  • This outdoorsy, organized family of four is seeking a dedicated and resourceful nanny/family assistant to join them in caring for their two active children! Their children love to stay engaged with activities like music, sports, and outdoor adventures. They enjoy singing, playing board games, and racing their bikes in the park. Their 7.5-year-old is in second grade, while their youngest, at 3 years old, attends preschool during the week. The family values a joyful home, fostering an environment full of love and going the extra mile for each other. They are excited to welcome someone who can create a caring, engaging, and respectful environment for their children while supporting the household.  
  • This is a dual career household where both parents are regularly in and out of the home. They foster a down-to-earth, active, and outdoor-loving vibe in their family and cherish quality time together. They occasionally travel to Napa for a long weekend and take two big international trips per year to vibrant destinations such as Japan, Spain, and London. Dad also travels for work a few days every month, so someone flexible to an earlier start on a few days per month will be key! They would love to welcome an adaptable, travel-ready nanny to join them on their travels to provide attentive and confident childcare while also supporting the family. The family also employs a weekly housekeeper, so someone who can work harmoniously with the family as well as their other household staff will be beneficial.

Ideal Candidate: 

  • This position is ideal for a compassionate, fun-loving, and resourceful career nanny/family assistant who is genuinely eager to support two lively, playful children and a dynamic home. Someone who can nurture their children’s growth and development while encouraging their unique interests and passion. The family values commitment and would greatly value someone who is seeking their next long-term role and has a record of longevity in their previous positions. The ideal candidate will be a respectful, dedicated nanny/family assistant who has a strong intuition and proactive attitude, always willing to go the extra mile to support family-assisting responsibilities to maintain a smooth and organized home, anticipating the family’s needs, and demonstrating excellent problem-solving skills. The family embraces cultural diversity and speaks multiple languages in their home and will greatly appreciate someone who shares the same values.
  • Responsibilities include childcare and family assisting tasks. Childcare 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, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year.
