In the afternoons and evenings, the nanny will partner with Mom to manage school pick-ups, after-school activities, homework support, and evening routines, including dinner, bath time, and bedtime. The family is eager to welcome a long-term caregiver as an extension of their family. Trips are typically no longer than a week. Travel is required!

The family lives in a beautiful home near the beach and enjoys spending time on the water. The nanny must be a strong swimmer and comfortable supervising children in the ocean.
