PLACED | New York & Travels | French-speaking Nanny | February 2024
It is imperative that the nanny be French-speaking, have a Green Card or an American passport.
The nanny will have self-employed status governed by French law.
A family of French-American dads are looking for a French-speaking nanny to join them in New York and help them take care of their two little girls. One is 9 years old and the youngest will be born in December 2023.
One of the dads works for a French leather goods brand and the other dad works in the banking sector.
A nanny had been employed by the family for many years and since then a young au pair has taken care of the school runs of the eldest, who attends the French high school in New York, a high school which is close to the family home. The family are looking for an experienced and professional full-time nanny to now care for the eldest after school and the unborn baby throughout the day.
The nanny must be French-speaking and have a decent level of English to be able to get by in everyday life.
The family are looking for a nanny for the month of January, February or March 2024. Both dads will be on parental leave for 4 months. The start date of employment is therefore flexible and the important thing will be to find the ideal candidate.
The nanny will be responsible for the children from Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., or 53 hours per week. There will very rarely be babysitting because at least one of the parents is back home by 5:45 p.m./6 p.m.
The nanny will be responsible for the eldest child's school runs to and from school in the morning and afternoon. She will then accompany her to her extracurricular activities, while keeping the baby with her. Generally one of the dads drops the eldest off at the French high school in the morning and the nanny will therefore be asked to do so only in the event of an unforeseen event.
The nanny will be responsible for keeping the children awake and, with the parents' agreement, for setting up fun and varied activities, adapted to their ages, will help the eldest with her homework, and will be responsible for preparing their meals, taking care of their laundry and keeping their living spaces clean and tidy.
The nanny will have a bedroom in the family home in New York and will have a very private space. The family are also planning to rent a studio for the nanny.
The nanny must not accompany the family on vacation and must take her vacation at the same time as the family. The family generally spends 6 weeks a year outside New York. The nanny will be entitled to 6 weeks of paid leave at a minimum, or even more.
One return ticket per year to Paris will be covered by the family. Health insurance coverage is also covered by the family.
A housekeeper takes care of the home and the nanny will not be asked to carry out household chores other than washing the children's laundry.
