Overview

A private family in Atherton is seeking an exceptional full-time, live-out nanny to join their fully staffed household. This long-term opportunity is ideal for a highly experienced childcare professional who is nurturing, polished, flexible, and passionate about child development. The ideal candidate will be Montessori trained, fluent in English and at least one additional language (Spanish, French, Italian, or German - all languages spoken in the home), and bring either/or professional childcare expertise or personal parenting experience, if applicable. The nanny will care for two homeschooled children, ages 3 and 9, while working collaboratively with the family's existing childcare team, which includes two other nannies who cover nights. This is a fully staffed household, and the full-time schedule is still to be determined, in accordance with the candidate's preference/ availability and the family's needs.
