- This warm, close-knit family consists of a loving, down-to-earth mom and her two bright, curious teenagers! Their 14-year-old son, who is heading into 8th grade, is a natural builder and tinkerer who can happily take things apart and figure them out, from Legos to BMX bikes to a hovercraft made from a leaf blower. He is also navigating an eating disorder and benefits from consistent support around food and mealtimes. The nanny will be expected to comfortably follow the family’s established guidance and routines around meals. Their 15-year-old, heading into 10th grade, is creative and independent. She loves to read, play piano, sing, and is a competitive swimmer. She also has a natural connection with young children and enjoys working as an assistant coach and summer camp counselor. Both children attend an arts and science school and have full lives that include academics, sports, arts, and time with their extended family. They are smart and capable students who benefit from thoughtful executive-functioning support, particularly around slowing down, breaking assignments into manageable steps, and following through with care. Their son tends to benefit from more hands-on support, while their daughter is increasingly independent but appreciates someone who can notice when she may need an extra nudge, reminder, or helping hand.
- This is a family-oriented household with extended family living close by. The families often plan long shared meals, activities, and day-to-day outings together, creating a sense of community and connection. Mom is currently undergoing treatment for a cancer diagnosis. Her treatment includes inpatient chemotherapy at a local hospital, during which the nanny will step into a sole-charge role for approximately 4-7 consecutive days at a time. There may also be occasions when an unexpected hospital visit requires additional coverage. Maintaining stability, normalcy, and consistency for the children throughout this season is incredibly important to the family. Their household is supported, including a chef, and the nanny will be part of a collaborative environment where the priority is being present and engaged with the kids. This is an active family that loves to get up, get out, and do things! The son has been struggling with a resurgence of an eating disorder since his mom’s diagnosis and benefits from extra attention and reminders to eat meals. The family hopes to find someone who can become a steady, trusted presence in the children's lives.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a warm, engaging, and intuitive nanny who is excited about supporting and nurturing growing teenagers. The family has always thrived with someone who takes time to discover each child’s interests and use it as a way to build an authentic relationship. A proactive, resourceful nanny who can jump into a building project, learn alongside their son when he goes deep on a new interest, chat about books or music with their daughter, head out for a bike ride, or dream up an impromptu adventure will fit beautifully. They strongly value real-world engagement over screen time and would love a nanny who can support this. Because both kids benefit from executive-functioning support, the right candidate brings intellectual curiosity, patience, and the ability to scaffold schoolwork.
- The family is looking for someone who can pair warmth and connection with healthy boundaries and follow-through. The perfect candidate will know how to encourage, redirect, and motivate while maintaining a strong relationship with the children. Being adaptable, reliable, and having a true all-hands-on-deck mentality are essential.

This is a high-capacity, multi-age household where the days are hands-on and full, and the family favors meaningful engagement and enrichment over screens.
- The family has an established household team and is looking for a Lead Nanny who can bring consistency and thoughtful leadership to the childcare side of the home. This person will serve as the primary point of communication between the parents and care team, helping translate the parents’ priorities into day-to-day practice while also addressing questions or challenges within the team before bringing matters to the parents when appropriate.

They hope to find a professional candidate who can build trust, grow into full autonomy over time, and become a long-term partner to the household.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a confident, proactive, and intuitive lead nanny who genuinely loves hands-on childcare and brings warmth, enthusiasm, and real stamina to full, busy days with multiple young children. The family is looking for a nanny first, someone who thrives in the day-to-day of caring for multiple little ones, understands age-appropriate development across infants through grade-school ages, and shows up ready to be the person who fills the gap and keeps things running smoothly. Genuine enjoyment of children and the energy to keep pace with five young kids is essential. The perfect candidate is warm and engaged, while maintaining clear, consistent boundaries, and equally comfortable leading the childcare team and stepping directly into care wherever needed.
- As the Lead Nanny, this person should also be a collaborative leader who knows how to join an established team thoughtfully.

A central part of this role, the Lead Nanny will understand the parents’ priorities and communicate them clearly and appropriately to the team, while also determining what can be resolved independently.

- 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, before and after school routines, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. Family assisting duties include running errands, coordinating vendors and household staff, and managing the family calendar. This role is roughly 40% management and 60% hands-on care, so the Lead Nanny will also pinch in when staff is out, build SOPs, checklists, and a nanny handbook, help onboard new childcare hires, and serve as the point of contact between the parents and the care team.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who is Mandarin-speaking, has Lead Nanny or management experience, has knowledge of an authoritative parenting approach, and has prior team leadership, onboarding, or SOP-building experience and career experience outside of nannying with a more formal business structure.

- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Knowledge and experience with age-appropriate developmental milestones for infants, toddlers, and preschool through grade school children

A rotational nanny who thrives on creating sensory and educational activities and planning enriching outings will feel right at home here.

- 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.

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

Palo Alto, CA | Confident Nanny/Family Assistant Wanted For Collaborative FamilyApply Now
This community-oriented family in Palo Alto, CA is seeking an adaptable and travel-ready nanny/family assistant to join their household team and support their two young children.
- Location: Palo Alto, CA, with regular travel to other West Coast locations
- Ages of children: 2.5-year-old and 7-month-old
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 47 hours per week. The general schedule falls Monday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Friday from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with increased hours and overtime during travel and school breaks
- Compensation: The family is offering $50.00 – $55.00/hour, for an estimated annual gross compensation of $128,150 – $140,965 / year (based on 47 guaranteed hours/week, inclusive of 40 base hours + 7 regular overtime hours across 46 working weeks). The family also offers ample opportunities for overtime and performance-based bonuses, bringing their annualized compensation to $140,150 – $152,965.
- Benefits: The family is open to providing 25 days of paid time off, 5 days of paid sick leave, a health insurance reimbursement, a 401(k), and travel expense coverage for the right candidate.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out. When traveling, the family will typically provide separate housing.
Household dynamic:
- This is a social, relaxed household that frequently hosts friends and relatives. Food is a big deal, and mealtimes are meant to gather family and friends together. One Saturday a month, they host their friends for “Pizza and Chaos” where they make pizzas, and the kids tear around the backyard.
- Mom has a busy professional schedule, and Dad is an artist with more flexibility. Their older son is a chatty, 2.5-year-old who loves to dance and is obsessed with heavy equipment. He's curious and engaged without being a physical risk-taker. Their 7-month-old is still revealing his personality but loves to eat and sleep and takes a keen interest in his big brother. The household includes a collaborative care team of a co-nanny, a flexible weekend nanny, a Montana-based travel nanny, and a grandparent who helps on Sundays.
- The family is outdoorsy and athletic and enjoys bikes, skiing, water sports, music, dancing, and group trips with friends. Vacations are centered around food, music, and exploring, less about sitting by a pool or beach. They are not an iPad household; there are no TVs in the home. The role begins alongside the family's current infant-focused nanny and will evolve over the next year into sole responsibility for both boys once her contract concludes in mid-2027, so someone open to this transition is important. Travel is a core part of this role, with the family away from Palo Alto roughly 12-14 weeks a year, including a stretch of up to six weeks in the Summer. Both boys will be attending a half week or full week school program by next May.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for an adaptable, communicative, confident, and travel-ready nanny/family assistant who brings warmth and strong personal organization to caring for two busy little boys. The family hopes for someone who takes initiative in suggesting activities and enrichment, keeps up with two toddlers simultaneously, and is tech-savvy to stay coordinated within a team. A nanny with a love of the outdoors and staying active will thrive here.
- Because this role starts alongside a co-nanny and grows into sole care of both boys, the family is looking for someone who collaborates easily and genuinely embraces a travel-heavy rhythm with long but well-supported days. Someone who values healthy eating, consistent routines, and building close, trusting relationships with the children will be a wonderful match for this family's evolving needs across the year.
- 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, after-school routines, planning and coordinating enriching activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. Occasional family assisting duties include running errands, laundry, and grocery shopping. The candidate will handle bath and bedtime routines, take the boys on walks, outdoor activities, and to parks or playgroups, and communicate daily with parents about the children's day and development.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has early childhood education experience, was a high school or college athlete, and has Spanish language skills.
Qualifications:
- 3+ years of professional childcare experience
- Strong knowledge and experience with age-appropriate developmental milestones and engagement for infants and toddlers
- CPR and First Aid certified, or willing to obtain
- Comfortable maintaining a strictly smoke-free and vape-free work environment (including the home, property, and vehicles)
- Comfortable with family assistant tasks related to childcare
- Valid driver’s license
- Valid passport
- Comfortable driving children, including in snowy conditions
- Strong swimmer and able to swim and care for children in water
- Comfortable navigating email, scheduling software, and note apps
- Comfortable with all travel modes, including boats, small planes, and helicopters
- Able to travel domestically and internationally with the family throughout the year
- A Note on Health & Safety Requirements: To protect their household, the hiring family requires candidates to provide proof of all standard vaccination, including flu and COVID-19, before scheduling an in-person trial or finalizing a job offer (subject to applicable laws and required accommodations). Because this is a private family requirement, any relevant records will be requested and reviewed by the family directly. Adventure Nannies does not collect, review, or screen candidates for vaccination status.
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.

Menlo Park, CA | Structured Nanny Wanted For Active FamilyApply Now
This dynamic, active family in Menlo Park, CA is seeking a confident, high-energy, adaptable nanny to support their four children and serve as a trusted, long-term partner to the family.
- Location: Menlo Park, CA
- Ages of children: 10, 8, 6, and 2 years 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 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with the understanding that the daily schedule can shift mid-day and flexibility is an important part of the role.
- Compensation: The family is offering $48-$53/hour based on a 40-hour/week schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation of $100-$110k range.
- Benefits: The family is open to providing 3 weeks of paid time off, paid sick leave, paid holidays, a vehicle for professional use, and relocation assistance for the right candidate. The family is open to discussing a health insurance stipend for the right candidate.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out
Household dynamic:
- This high-energy, active, and busy Bay Area family is seeking a nanny to support their four children! Their kids are a lively bunch spanning a wide age range: a 10-year-old girl, an 8-year-old boy, a 6-year-old boy, and a 2-year-old girl, with the day-to-day role focusing 80-90% on the younger two and offering occasional support to the older children or various combinations of all four. The three older children attend school during the day, while the youngest attends preschool in the mornings, so much of the role centers on child-related household support earlier in the day and providing a warm, reliable "home base" during after-school hours. Their 6-year-old son has ADD and can be sensitive at times, and the family has found that calm, positive reinforcement and thoughtful little systems make all the difference for him. No two days look quite the same in this household, so the family maintains a shared calendar for each child to help the nanny know exactly what to prep for the day ahead.
- Both parents work from a home office separate from the household and are in and out of the home regularly, so this role functions as a true partner with the family rather than a hands-off arrangement. The household also includes a housekeeper and a gardener, creating a collaborative, team-oriented environment. Occasional travel around traditional school breaks may come up, sometimes with the nanny along and sometimes not, though it is helpful rather than critical to the role. This is an established family with a strong history of long-term placements, and they are hoping to find someone who will grow alongside them and become a trusted, right-hand partner for years to come!
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a self-confident, adaptable, high-energy, and organized nanny who thrives in a busy, ever-changing household and genuinely enjoys a bustling home! The family is looking for someone extroverted, gentle, and proactive who can bring positivity and calm to each day, meet the children where they are developmentally, and build genuine, trusting relationships with each of them. Because the schedule shifts daily and sometimes mid-day, the perfect candidate is easy-going, autonomous, and truly go-with-the-flow, who stays on top of everything, is able to anticipate needs, and brings a positive, can-do attitude.
- The family especially values someone who can stay steady, patient, and encouraging while supporting their sweet and sensitive 6-year-old, offering warm co-regulation and positive reinforcement without being thrown off by big feelings. A tech-savvy, team-minded partner who communicates seamlessly with the family, particularly with a hands-on Mom, and collaborates easily with the other household staff will thrive here, as will someone who brings high energy and confidence to keeping up with two very active boys and their siblings. The family is excited to welcome a true partner who is eager to support them long-term.
- 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, children's laundry, 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 prior experience in a multi-child setting, including preschool, daycare, or summer camp.
Qualifications:
- At least 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Experience traveling with families
- Comfortable caring for children with ADD/ADHD
- Tech-savvy and comfortable using Google Calendar and other calendar and organizational tools
- 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.

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/family assistant 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 son and a full-time housekeeper who manages cleaning, laundry, and family meal preparation.

Household dynamic:
- This busy, active, and lively New Jersey family is seeking a rotational nanny/family assistant to support their three wonderful children! Their 11-year-old daughter is quiet and reserved, a diligent student, and a dedicated elite basketball player who brings real focus and discipline to everything she does. Their almost 10-year-old daughter is wonderfully extroverted, deeply warm-hearted, and full of big energy and even bigger emotions — she lights up every room she enters. Their 5-year-old son is an absolute sweetheart who is endlessly on the move, loves pretend play, and is fascinated by anything and everything to do with transportation. All three children attend school full time across two different schools with different schedules and holidays. On typical school days, the candidate can expect periods of downtime while the children are in school. Weekends bring more hours and more family time together.
- One parent is a hands-on, stay-at-home parent who is deeply involved in the children's daily lives and is looking for a true childcare partner to work alongside them. The other parent has a demanding professional schedule with frequent travel, so consistency and reliability in the home are especially important. This is a Jewish family who is looking for someone who is genuinely open and enthusiastic about their culture and traditions. The nanny will be joining an established household team with a housekeeper and additional support at home. The family anticipates 2–4 weeks of travel per year, typically to the beach, and they hope their nanny will travel with them. They are looking for a long-term partnership and are building a rotational team of two nannies to provide consistent, high-quality care for their children.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for a calm, self-confident, adaptable, and open-minded rotational nanny/family assistant who brings a perceptive, resourceful, and structured approach to their work. The right candidate will be someone who genuinely loves children and thrives in a busy, high-energy household — someone who can hold the rhythm of the day with warmth and steadiness, helping three curious and spirited kids move through their routines with ease. They will be intuitive about each child's individual needs and personality, meeting each one where they are while keeping the household humming along. An ability to stay grounded and redirect with patience and creativity — especially during the more energetic moments — will be essential, and experience supporting children who benefit from consistent structure and thoughtful routine management will be a real asset.
- The ideal candidate will be a collaborative, communicative team player who is comfortable working alongside a hands-on parent and within a staffed household. They will be autonomous to take initiative and resourceful to problem-solve, while also being able to communicate proactively and keep everyone informed. Comfort with food allergy awareness — including reading labels carefully and responding calmly and confidently in an emergency — is essential, and a genuine openness to learning and following allergy protocols will be expected from day one. Someone who embraces travel as a natural and exciting part of the role, and who is enthusiastic about being a consistent, trusted presence across a rotational schedule, will thrive in this position.
- 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 including school drop-off and pick-up across two schools with different schedules, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. Family assisting duties include 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 has experience with ADHD support and family assisting, and is comfortable preparing meals for the entire family.
- The family is requiring proof of all standard vaccinations (MMR, Tdap, Flu) before employment begins and is requiring the candidate to remain current throughout employment, subject to applicable laws and legally required accommodations. This is a family requirement. Any documentation will be requested and reviewed directly by the family. Adventure Nannies does not screen candidates for vaccination status and does not collect or review vaccination records.

- Able to live-in while on shift, live-out while off shift
- Valid driver’s license

- A Note on Health & Safety Requirements: To protect their household, the hiring family requires candidates to provide proof of all standard vaccinations (MMR, Tdap, Flu)] before scheduling an in-person trial or finalizing a job offer (subject to applicable laws and required accommodations).

This adventurous, kindhearted, blended family in Durango, CO is seeking a grounded and perceptive nanny to provide thoughtful, exceptional care for their 11-year-old twin boys.
- Location: Durango, CO

In addition to the 15-year-old, there is a 19-year-old heading off to college and a 22-year-old who attends Fort Lewis, the college in town and is a big part of the family and a huge help.
- Start date: As soon as they find the right fit!
- Schedule: Dynamic schedule, guaranteeing 30 hours per week, with full schedules issued one month in advance to allow for predictability and work-life balance. On standard weeks, coverage includes after-school hours (usually 2 days per week) and 2-3 weekend days per month. When the parents travel (approx. 3-8 nights per month / 82 overnights per year), you’ll provide overnight coverage across three distinct duty levels: full childcare and dog care (estimated 38 nights), childcare only (estimated 24 nights), or low-load housesitting/property care (estimated 21 nights).

- Live-in/Live-out: Live-out
Household dynamic:
- This adventurous, health-oriented, and loving Durango-based family is seeking a nanny to support their incredible 11-year-old twin boys! The nanny will be primarily responsible for nurturing and supporting them. Both children are opposites in personality, yet complement each other beautifully. One twin is highly energetic, deeply social, and passionate about everything Durango has to offer. He's a serious mountain biker, skier, and whitewater kayaker who loves being out in the world and thrives with kind, consistent encouragement. His twin brother is cerebral, artistic, and wonderfully curious — a kid who asks big questions, loves writing stories, and has a deep passion for reptiles (the family has two very sweet ball pythons!). He's an adventurer too, a skilled skier and kayaker, but equally loves coming home to quiet creative time. Both boys are chess enthusiasts and love any game that involves strategy. They are heading into sixth grade, with after-school activities that shift by season, including a mountain biking team, ski team, basketball, music, and therapy. The family also shares their home with two dogs, three cats, two ball pythons, and a guinea pig. The nanny will provide full pet and plant care when the parents travel.
- Both parents are actively involved in managing the household and caring for the family's properties in Durango, Silverton, and at Purgatory Mountain. Their home is lively, spacious, clean, and easygoing. Committed to supporting their children’s holistic development, the family encourages them to build strong friendships and adores after-school playdates either at home or at their children’s friends' homes. The nanny will become part of a collaborative household team that includes a housekeeper, with full support from Mom to maintain the candidate's schedule. The family has built a warm, grounded home culture rooted in patience, kindness, clear expectations, and compassionate natural consequences. Screen time is intentionally limited, and routines are designed to help the boys grow into responsible, contributing, honest, thoughtful, caring human beings. Both parents frequently travel, typically 5-8 nights per month, and are very organized and detail-oriented about the schedule. The nanny will stay with the boys and care for the animals, plants, and home when the parents travel. The family hopes to find someone who can truly invest in who the boys are becoming and can grow with them for the long term as they enter the sometimes tricky pre-teen and teen world.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for an extroverted, gentle, confident, and emotionally grounded nanny who brings both warmth and intentionality to their work with growing middle-school children. The ideal candidate should be perceptive, resourceful, and engaging - someone who genuinely delights in getting to know kids as individuals, understands that two children can be completely different people, and has the patience and versatility to meet each child exactly where he is. The nanny will be someone who leads with kindness, holds space for big feelings without raising their voice, and naturally reinforces routines and expectations in a firm yet gentle manner. Someone comfortable with the outdoors and excited to engage children in outdoor activities and adventure sports such as skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, and beyond will be a natural fit for the role. The candidate must also be an ally to the LGBTQ community and support the boys when they want to get civically engaged.
- The perfect candidate is someone adaptable, easygoing, and composed who transitions smoothly from a high-energy afternoon to a quiet evening at home. A thoughtful nanny who can assist the children in building meaningful friendships, coordinate with other parents to facilitate these connections, and truly appreciate living in a bustling, animal-filled home will be a wonderful fit. The family will value someone who will bring a calm, organized presence to their home. A candidate who is eager to embrace mountain town life and view this position as a meaningful, long-term investment in two incredible children will truly excel in this role. Additionally, the candidate should not be terrified of reptiles and should be interested in learning about them.
- Responsibilities include creating an environment for the children to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, encouraging and helping the boys organize their areas, occasional errands, managing before and after school routines, coordinating activities, supporting after-school pickups two to three days per week, and accompanying the boys at home on holidays and teacher workdays, staying with the boys and caring for the animals and home during parent travel (typically five to eight nights per month). The role also includes caring for the family's plants while they are traveling.
- While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who has experience supporting children with ADHD and is an animal lover, especially reptiles. Both children lead an active, adventurous lifestyle and embrace a love of creativity, so someone with experience or a love of outdoor sports, including skiing, whitewater rafting, and mountain biking, as well as the artistic ability to support a child's writing and creativity, would be a wonderful addition!
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Knowledge and experience with older elementary-aged children
- Valid driver's license
- Animal lover and willing to provide pet and plant care when the parents travel
- Comfortable with and enthusiastic about outdoor sports

Hawaii + Charlotte, NC | Bilingual Nanny/Family Assistant Wanted For Multi-Residence FamilyApply Now
This empathetic, highly-engaged, and curious family is seeking a confident, nurturing, and collaborative Japanese, Mandarin, and/or Spanish-speaking nanny/family assistant to care for and support their newborn’s development while fostering a warm and enriching environment.
- Location: Charlotte, North Carolina and Big Island of Hawaii
- Ages of children: Newborn
- Start date: Early August or September 2026
- Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 40 hours per week, with the general schedule falling on Monday through Friday, 8 hours per day (generally 9:00am to 5:00pm), with flexibility for adjustments based on the child's schedule and developmental progress.
- Compensation: The family is offering $45-$55/hour based on the 40-hour/week schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation in the $93,600-$114,400/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, a vehicle for professional use, and relocation assistance for the right candidate.
- Live-in/Live-out: Live-in or live-out. A housing separate from the parents’ unit, with a private bedroom (often a separate condo/unit), can be provided.
Household dynamic:
- These high-energy, systems-minded, and empathetic parents recently welcomed their first child and are seeking a nanny/family assistant to provide exceptional care while creating a fully immersive Japanese, Mandarin and/or Spanish language environment from day one. Childcare and language immersion are the central focus of the role. The candidate will speak exclusively in the target language with the child throughout the day, with a focus on providing live, responsive, child-directed speech. As the child grows, the nanny/family assistant will also support developmental milestones, arrange for the child to interact with other speakers of the target language, foster intellectual curiosity, and encourage child-led exploration through responsive caregiving, reading, play, and age-appropriate outings and activities. While parents will initially be present during childcare and may later occasionally check in briefly, the goal is for childcare during work hours to eventually take place away from parents to protect immersion and support caregiver autonomy. Coordination and check-ins with parents will occur in English and out of the child’s earshot. Both parents are eager to learn conversational basics in the target language alongside their child to support immersion.
- These entrepreneurial first-time parents are analytical, creative, empathetic, and genuinely engaged. They describe their household as high-energy, very engaged, and thoughtful, with a planning style that embraces both intentionality and adaptability as new information emerges. The family sees themselves as a guardrails-and-autonomy household, and is clear about a few non-negotiables: immersion, safety, development, and screen safety, while genuinely wanting a candidate with sound judgment who can confidently run the day independently within those boundaries. Warm, direct, and down-to-earth, they value humility, kindness, practical competence, and proactive and direct communication and are seeking a candidate who naturally embodies those same qualities.
- The parents are seeking a candidate who can maintain a respectful, low-pressure approach around the child. The home is vegetarian, screen-free, and social media-free, with a strong emphasis on health, outdoor exploration, and learning through experience. Family outings to zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens, and national parks are part of their rhythm. The family splits their time between Charlotte and the Big Island of Hawaii, with occasional travel to other regional destinations. Alternating between their two homes is a meaningful and regular part of their lifestyle, and the nanny/family assistant will be an integral part of these adventures. The nanny/family assistant will be invited to join family outings and lead appropriate outings independently when their child grows.
Ideal candidate:
- This position is ideal for an intelligent, developmentally minded, team-oriented, safety-conscious nanny/family assistant who brings advanced fluency in Japanese, Mandarin, or Spanish and a passion for supporting language acquisition in early childhood stages. The family is seeking someone with a clear, natural pronunciation and consistently accurate grammar suitable for modeling language for a child throughout the day. The ideal candidate is perceptive, creative, self-confident, calm, with a positive attitude and a genuine love of working with young children. An upbeat nanny/family assistant who is excited to foster communication, curiosity, and learning through everyday interactions, reading, play, exploration, and real-world experiences will be a wonderful fit. Grounded in nurturing and evidence-based child development, they are comfortable supporting emotional development through co-regulation, empathy, respectful boundaries, and child-led exploration - with healthy limits while encouraging the child's unique interests, temperament, and emerging preferences. The home prioritizes empathy, health, and happiness. They are looking for a candidate who encourages the child’s natural interests and drives, while maintaining age-appropriate structure and limits.
- As first-time parents who value direct communication and continuous learning, the family is seeking a caregiver who can confidently take ownership of the day while partnering thoughtfully with parents. The right candidate is team-minded, nurturing, and confident, someone who brings experience, perspective, and sound judgment while remaining collaborative and open to family values and preferences. During downtimes, the candidate will help support household tasks, so someone willing to pitch in where needed and naturally takes initiative in maintaining an organized home will be an excellent fit. Since the family enjoys enriching, outdoor-oriented activities, they would love to work with a candidate who enjoys outings and learning-by-doing while staying aligned with their safety-conscious, screen-free approach. Travel between the family’s two home bases is an essential part of the role. The ideal candidate is travel-ready, adaptable, and able to provide consistent, reliable support as the family transitions between residences and navigates life on the road.
- This role’s primary 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 children’s areas, occasional errands, before and after school routines, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. As the child’s needs allow, up to 15% of this role’s hours may consist of general family assisting duties such as running errands, light cleaning, simple meal planning and preparation, grocery shopping, coordinating vendors, scheduling/arranging home service providers (handymen, cleaners, etc), and managing the family calendar.
Qualifications:
- 3 years of professional childcare experience
- Genuinely enjoys supporting and engaging with infants and toddlers
- Advanced fluency (C1 on the CEFR scale) in Japanese, Mandarin, or Spanish
- Experience providing in-home immersive language environments
- Knowledge in evidence-based child development
- Ability to travel with the family throughout the year
- Provide and maintain a screen-free home environment

Their 3-year-old twin boys are curious, energetic, and at a wonderfully active developmental stage, full of exploration and discovery. The family’s days are anchored by calm, intentional routines that reflect their deep commitment to thoughtful child development. Incorporating RIE and Pikler principles into daily life, the family values encouraging independence, curiosity, and respectful caregiving. The father is originally from the US and the family splits their time between Canada and their US residences. The nanny will be paid through US payroll, and the family is responsible for obtaining work visas for international travel, including travel to Canada, as necessary.
- Both parents are present in the home and are warmly, actively involved in the day-to-day care of their boys. This is a genuinely collaborative household, and the nanny joining this team will thrive in a partnership-oriented environment. The candidate will step into a family caregiver role and work alongside the family’s existing high-trust, long-time childcare team. Highly organized and professionally run, other household staff includes a housekeeper, a chef, and an estate manager. The household maintains a fully gluten-free and scent-free environment to support the health and well-being of the whole family.

- The ideal candidate will be equally comfortable working alongside engaged, present parents and a close-knit caregiving team, and will bring a collaborative, communicative spirit to every interaction. The nanny will be someone who genuinely values healthy living, time outdoors, and the kind of calm, nurturing environment this family has worked hard to create. The family deeply values emotional attunement, and the right candidate will be comfortable slowing down, listening, and holding space for big toddler feelings rather than distracting away from them. Someone who practices self-reflection and genuinely enjoys learning and growing will thrive here, as the family works with an RIE coach who supports both parents and caregivers as the children grow.
- Experience supporting twins and navigating a fully staffed household will be essential. The family will value someone who has a natural ability to show up consistently and brings a genuine enthusiasm for the possibility of travel as the family's rhythms evolve.
- Responsibilities include creating an environment for the children to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks including but not limited to supporting calm daily routines rooted in RIE and Pikler principles, 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.
