PLACED | Hamilton, Bermuda | Experienced Live-in Nanny | ASAP Start
A British family living in Bermuda since 2016, living the expat life, are looking for an experienced live-in nanny to look after their two daughters aged 11 and 8.
The current nanny who has been with the family for the last 4 years is leaving soon so the family are looking for someone to take over as soon as possible.
The parents are looking for an English-speaking full-time, live-in nanny to start as soon as possible.
The candidate will have to be fun, not fazed by anything, with excellent judgment and common sense, somebody happy to muck-in in all circumstances, to work along with the parents.
The nanny will have to be active, sporty, energetic and open-minded nanny, dedicated and flexible. Sense of communication is essential, with the parents, the children and family friends.
The two girls are going to school full-time and live a very active life. They practice horse riding, dive in the sea – often in the Maldives, ski in the winter, play musical instruments, do ballet and hockey. Therefore, the parents expect the nanny to guide their daughters, to teach them how to be part of the world and grow in a very busy lifestyle. They want the nanny to teach them to show respect to everyone.
The nanny will be part of the family and are looking for a nanny who loves her job and looks at this opportunity as an adventure to be embraced. Ideally, she will be very open minded, very involved and dedicated.
The nanny will be on call 24h, 5 days a week, but the parents are happy for the nanny to go out if she is not needed so long, she is in a good spirit at 7am to start working, doing breakfast, going to school when the parents are not doing it.
The nanny will start at 7:00am and will help with breakfast and lunch boxes and will be responsible for school drop offs and pickups at 3:30pm. She will be planning indoors and outdoors activities, organising diner and bath time. The nanny and the children will be back home around 5:30pm.
When the children are at school, the nanny will help with doing some grocery shopping and small errands. She has to be able to book flights and to act as the family PA.
The nanny will be working 5 days a week with usually Saturdays or Sundays off. If travelling occurs during weekends, it will be compensated financially of by extra days off.
As the parents travel a lot, the nanny will be often working on a sole charge basis, but she needs to be comfortable working alongside the parents as well.
The family spend time in Africa and in the UK, they have another residence in Suffolk.
The nanny must be a confident driver. She will have to take the Bermudian driving license. She will be provided with a typical little Bermudian scooter/car and must be comfortable driving a bigger car.
The nanny has her own basement, away from the family, with her own terrace, bedroom, bathroom with private entrance.
The nanny will have at least 4 weeks paid holidays. Exact weeks will have to be decided between both parties.
A cleaner is employed and is be responsible for all non-child related duties.
The nanny will be provided with a 2 years’ work permit. The nanny can have an EU, a British or American passport.
All expenses are paid, including beach/sport memberships/restaurants/transports/medical insurance, etc.
The family have two well-behaved dogs, a Labrador and a Spaniel, so the nanny must be comfortable with dogs and happy to walk them after school run.
