Job Description

Our private household is currently seeking a dedicated and adaptable part-time Housekeeper / Nanny to join an active and busy family environment. This unique position is tailored for someone who thrives in a dynamic setting, where responsibilities may shift frequently according to the family's evolving needs. Our household embodies warmth, respect, and efficiency, providing a nurturing atmosphere for both the children and the staff. We are not offering a traditional fixed-schedule part-time role; instead, this position demands flexibility and the ability to respond to varied and changing demands.

The role of Housekeeper / Nanny is vital in maintaining the smooth functionality of our household while delivering attentive, loving care to the children. The successful candidate will take on the dual responsibility of household management alongside childcare, ensuring both environments are safe, clean, and welcoming. You will engage in tasks such as tidying, organizing, assisting with laundry, preparing light meals, and supporting the children’s daily schedules, including school pickups and extracurricular activities. The candidate will work closely with the House Manager and other staff to create a seamless living experience for the family.

Given the nature of this position, the role requires someone who is not only reliable and well-organized but also genuinely compassionate and patient with children. Prior experience either as a nanny or private housekeeper is highly preferred. Excellent communication skills and professionalism are essential to maintaining a respectful and confidential household environment. A valid driver’s license and dependable transportation are required, given the responsibilities involving errands and appointments.

This is a non-exempt part-time role with hours that fluctuate depending on the family’s needs, including weekend availability and occasional overnight stays. Flexibility for evenings, holidays, extended hours, and even travel with the family may be necessary, making this a perfect job for someone who values variety and is comfortable with unpredictability. Those seeking a fixed or guaranteed weekly schedule may not find this role suitable.

We pride ourselves on fostering a positive and supportive working relationship, where each staff member is valued and respected. If you are a warm, detail-oriented, and adaptable individual who enjoys being part of a bustling household and are committed to exceptional care for children and household management, we invite you to apply. Join us in making a meaningful impact in this family’s daily life and help maintain a well-organized, loving home environment. Send your resume and a brief introduction outlining your childcare and housekeeping experience today. We look forward to hearing from you!
