A wonderful family in Honolulu, HI, is seeking an experienced, warm, and emotionally intelligent temporary, full-time live-in nanny to care for their two sons. Their older son is almost 3 years old, and their youngest is an infant who will be 10 months old in October. The primary focus of the position will be caring for the 2.5-year-old; however, the nanny will be responsible for both children as needed. The family values a collaborative, team-oriented approach between the nanny and parents.
