A warm, busy family in Atherton is seeking an experienced, well-rounded, and highly reliable full-time nanny to join their established household team and work collaboratively with their current full-time nanny to provide seamless childcare support.

The family has three children, ages 5–11, all of whom attend school during the day. The children are active, curious, creative, and involved in a variety of activities. The family is looking for someone who genuinely enjoys children and brings a calm, positive, and nurturing presence to the home.

This is a long-term position for someone who is looking to become an integral part of a well-run household and build a strong relationship with the children.

The general schedule will be a combination of longer and shorter shifts, currently approximately Monday and Tuesday from 6am to 7pm and Wednesday through Friday from 1pm to 7pm. The candidate might be asked to stay overnight on occasion when both parents are traveling for work. The ideal candidate will be flexible and adaptable when schedules run a tad over due to activities.

The family believes in raising children to become kind, capable, curious, healthy, and well-rounded people. They are looking for a nanny who shares that philosophy and will take an active interest in the children's development—not simply supervise them.
