Overview
A family in Encinitas, CA, is seeking a long-term ROTA career nanny for their 18-month-old twins, starting ASAP. The schedule will be 1 week on/1 week off. Both children are in sync and in a good routine. This is a long-term, indefinite placement. Another nanny will work the alternating weeks and there is a part-time housekeeper who comes Monday through Friday but candidates must be comfortable working autonomously with two children for 7 days straight when they are on duty. Applicants should ideally be based in the greater Southern California area but the family will consider formidable candidates outside of this.
Responsibilities
- Prioritizing the safety and well-being of the children at all times
- Ensuring the children are hitting developmental milestones, scheduling play-dates, planning fun, educational and age-appropriate activities, and generally keeping the children engaged and inspired.
- The housekeeper will typically keep on top of the children’s laundry, so this will not be the nanny's responsibility.
- Basic meal prep, or candidates may also order food via a food delivery service or order fresh and ready-made produce locally.
Qualifications
- Must have verifiable experience working with multiples in this age group
- Must have verifiable experience working on a ROTA schedule
- The ideal candidate will be friendly, with a positive/fun demeanor
- A solid understanding of developmental milestones is preferred, as well as an educational background in child development or other related field.
- Candidates who are either proponents of, or have a solid understanding of, child-led learning (RIE, Reggio, Montessori etc.) would be best suited to this opportunity
Requirements
- US passport, Green Card or EAC
- Passport ready and willing to travel both domestically and internationally
- Trustline registered (or willing to register ASAP)
- Verifiable twins experience is a must
- Candidates must have a clean driving record and current driving license (a car will be provided for use on duty)
- Candidates must be dog-friendly
- Available to start ASAP
Salary and Benefits
- Highly competitive DOE + full benefits and a Healthcare Reimbursement (HRA)
