About the Family:
A warm family in Bethesda is seeking a calm, experienced, and nurturing full-time nanny to care for their two daughters. Their 10-year-old is bright, independent, and an avid reader, needing occasional support for executive functioning. Their 4-year-old is joyful, creative, and thrives in arts, dance, and imaginative play.
The children spend most of their time one-on-one with a nanny, and the family values curiosity, learning, and social/emotional development. Fluency in Spanish or Italian is a hard requirement, as the children are bilingual.
The household also includes a Bernadoodle (~6 months, hypoallergenic), with a dog walker and trainer in place. Both parents work from home in separate offices, and the family is seeking a nanny who can independently manage the daily rhythm of the home with warmth, structure, and initiative. Occasional domestic or international travel may occur (1–2 trips per year), but it is not required. The 10 year old has a tree nut allergy, so a nanny must be comfortable with an EpiPen.
