Seeking an energetic and active live-out ROTA nanny for a family of 6 moving to NYC.  Expect a rotating schedule of 14 days on/14 days off, but candidates will need to be flexible to accommodate extended rotational shifts during periods of travel.   

Candidates will be based in the Bahamas for the first 6 months and will then move to New York City with the family.  The main responsibilities will include helping with the day-to-day life of four school-aged children (all under 9 yrs) - getting them up and ready in the mornings, general admin and organisational duties relating to the children during the day and when on vacation, taking them to any activities, supporting their evening routine, and from time to time helping cook delicious, nutritious meals.  Candidates should be comfortable working alongside parents who are very present in their children's lives, this is definitely about tag-teaming with the parents, seeing where support would be helpful and stepping in wherever necessary.  The family's preference is for a fabulous, fun older sister type caregiver, comfortable and familiar with a busy household with multiple children and who displays a real muck-in attitude.  The family are sporty, close-knit and adventurous – they are looking for a nanny who will fit well into this dynamic, who is proactive, has a passion for the outdoors and healthy living, and who can keep up with their busy lives.  A real team player!

The position will involve regular international travel that includes the Bahamas, the US, and Europe.  The home is fully staffed, so the rota nanny must be an excellent communicator, comfortable working alongside others and happy to pitch-in wherever necessary. Candidates should be completely invested in the well-being of the children and with supporting the family as a whole, and must also love animals – there are two very friendly dogs in the household who are definitely part of the family!   A Spanish-speaker is essential and ideally the nanny is located in NYC and already familiar with what is on offer there for school-aged children.   A confident, safe driver with a clean licence would be preferred.  Accommodation is provided offsite in the Bahamas, while in NYC it would be preferred if the nanny had their own place and the rota position was considered a live-out one.  

If you are COVID-vaccinated, have outstanding references, at least 5 years of prior experience, and are legal to work in the US, please apply to ZI154.
