The role requires flexibility, discretion, and a proactive mindset. Both parents are hands-on, often work from home, and value strong communication and teamwork. Candidates must be local to the Bay Area (Peninsula/San Francisco) or within a reasonable daily commute.

  • Transport children to and from school and extracurricular activities (vehicle provided).
  • Support household and child-related organization during school hours, including laundry, toy and closet organization, and meal prep.
  • Collaborate closely with the other nanny to ensure consistent care and communication.
  • Coordinate schedules for school, activities, and family travel.
  • 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.
    • Proven success working collaboratively on a nanny team and with hands-on parents.
    • Highly active, engaging, and energetic; able to participate in physical and outdoor play.
    • 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.
    • Trustline registered (or willing to register).
    • Willingness and ability to travel domestically and internationally; passport ready.
    • 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.
  • Schedule: 5 days per week including 2 weekends per month (Flexibility for additional hours during school breaks, holidays, family travel, or date nights is required.)
