PLACED | Paris 17th | English-Speaking or Bilingual in another Language / English | December 2023
A family, known to the agency, are currently looking for an English-speaking or bilingual in another language/English nanny to take care of their 7-year-old little boy.
The family are also open to the idea of employing a bilingual French/Spanish or French/German nanny, to introduce their little boy to a third language.
The little boy attends the Jeannine Manuel school and is perfectly bilingual in English.
The mother works from home 3 days a week. The nanny must be comfortable with this professional organization. The dad is a business manager and travels occasionally for work.
The current nanny has been working for the family for the past 3 years and is moving on to new horizons and leaving the family in very good terms.
The family are looking for a calm, patient, dynamic nanny who knows how to show initiative and who will be autonomous.
The nanny will work as follows:
School :
During school weeks, the nanny's schedule will be from 1:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. She will start by tidying up the little boy's room, his clothes, his toys, books etc., she will then pick up the little boy from school (by metro) at 3:15 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and at 4:45 p.m. on Fridays.
On Wednesdays, she will work from 12:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The little boy finishes school at 12:30 p.m. and will then have to be accompanied to his activities (football in the Bois de Boulogne by car, piano at the family home).
On Thursday she will have to accompany the little boy to his tennis lessons in the car.
A 4 hours babysitting per week will be requested (even if it will not be systematically needed).
This equates to a total of 37 hours worked per week.
Holidays :
During school holidays, the nanny will work 8 hours per day and will have to accompany the family on holidays.
Most of the school holidays during which the nanny will work will be spent in Savoie.
7 weeks of paid leave are offered to the nanny. Each half terms, the nanny will be entitled to a week's holidays (one in October/one at Christmas/one in February/one at Easter/three weeks during the summer).
In Savoie, the nanny will stay at the parents' home and when travelling somewhere else she will have a studio to preserve the privacy of each party. The nanny will be off on weekends and a return train will be paid for her if she does not wish to stay there during the weekend.
This is equivalent to 40 hours worked per week.
Responsibilities of the nanny:
• The nanny will be responsible for the well-being of the little boy, his awakening and will therefore ensure his safety and put in place activities adapted to his age. She will also supervise park, bath and meal times.
• She will also be responsible for her educational learning and in particular for learning English or any other third language. She will help him with his homework.
• Some flexibility is requested in the event of a little boy's sick days.
• The nanny will have to carry out a few small errands for the family: once a week, buy fruits and vegetables at the greengrocer and receive the fresh ones delivered to the home, go to the post office on the way to school, to the dry cleaners to collect a piece of clothing etc. and she will have to prepare meals for the little boy (and not for the parents).
• The nanny will have to use the family vehicle to accompany the little boy to his activities away from home. It is therefore essential that the nanny has a driving license and is comfortable driving in Paris and Savoie.
Please not that only candidates who hold an EU passport or already have the right to work in French will be taken into consideration.
