A calm and mellow nanny is required for an American/British family with two children. The eldest will be 16 months when the job starts and the new baby is due in February 2022. The Mum will be on maternity leave until June 2022. Initially the job will be shared care and from June 2022 the job will be sole charge.
The eldest baby is very adaptable, happy and plays well independently. She currently attends daycare full time, this will change in 2022. She has a daily routine the nanny will need to follow.
Both parents have busy corporate jobs. It's vital you are extremely reliable and punctual. It’s also important you can be flexible with your working hours and potentially happy to proxy parent on occasion as the parents have to travel for work.

Travelling with the family is a requirement. This will include long weekend trips to the UK and internationally to America. The family are planners so you will know in advance. Your hours will change when you travel.
