A warm and well-traveled family is seeking an experienced, bilingual Temporary Travel Nanny to provide live-in childcare support during a one week stay in Antibes, approximately 30 minutes outside of Nice. The family has a strong preference for a local candidate with genuine knowledge of the region who can provide seamless, professional care in a family centered environment. The child is a happy and easygoing 20 month old girl who sleeps well through the night. During the Antibes week, the parents will be attending a private event in Italy, and the nanny will be the primary caregiver, supporting the child alongside her maternal grandparents, who are deeply loving but unable to manage full day care independently. The grandparents will remain actively involved, joining for meals and outings, and the nanny’s role is to provide consistent, energetic support throughout the day.

There is also the possibility of joining the family for 1 to 2 days in Vence the week prior (June 26 to July 2) as an introductory overlap, so the family can meet the nanny before they depart for Italy. This would not be a formal work week, simply an opportunity to connect and build comfort before the primary placement begins.

Week One: Vence (Optional, June 26 to July 2)
The family will be staying with extended family during this portion of the trip. If the selected candidate is available and willing, 1 to 2 days of light overlap may be arranged so the principal can meet the nanny in person before leaving for Italy. 

Week Two: Antibes (July 3 to July 10)
The nanny will live in with the child and her maternal grandparents. Estimated hours are approximately 10am to 10pm. The child sleeps through the night and overnight care is not required. The nanny will have her own private room.
