  • Assist with meal preparation for children as needed.
  • Maintain professionalism, discretion, and confidentiality at all times.

QUALIFICATIONS

  • Minimum 5 years of professional nanny experience in UHNW or staffed households.

  • Strong communicator and self-starter who can work independently or as part of a team.
  • Comfortable in a dynamic, fast-paced household with changing schedules.
  • CPR/First Aid certified (or willing to certify).
  • Valid driver’s license with clean driving record; confident driving children.

  • Must be comfortable around a large dog (Goldendoodle).
  • Able to prepare basic, healthy meals for children.
  • No vacation or travel plans within the first 3–6 months of employment.
  • Legally authorized to work in the U.S.; must sign NDA and pass background checks.
