Household dynamic:

• The family describes their 2-year-old as a playful little guy who loves trucks, being silly, running around, and exploring his environment. They live near a kid-friendly working farm, and their son loves visiting with the farm animals! He thrives on structure and routine and will love having a nanny who can provide this for him. Their young teen is described as social, attending school full-time where mom takes the lead on drop-offs, pick-ups, and afterschool care.
• The parents are excited to be growing their family and plan to welcome another baby in the next year! Mom is a stay-at-home parent, and looks forward to teaming up with their nanny each day, while the dad will be working outside of the home. They employ full-time housekeepers and other household staff, and would love to work with a candidate who brings previous experience working with a team or in a staffed environment.

• The role will be structured to include time blocks where the candidate will be responsible for childcare and blocks for family assisting duties each day. When the family welcomes their third child, the role will shift to focus to be solely on childcare. A candidate who brings savviness with the infant through toddler years and a willingness to be a team player will be key! The family likes to keep a clean and organized home environment, so a candidate who is mindful of tidiness will be valued.
