Warm, Organized, and Reliable Live-In Nanny Needed in Chestnut Hill, MA
Start: February (flexible for the right fit)
A warm, professional family in Chestnut Hill is seeking a kind, proactive, and highly organized Live-In Nanny to support their two children, ages 7 years and 18 months. Both parents are physicians with demanding schedules, so reliability, strong communication, and consistency are essential. The family values a calm, structured, and screen-free home environment and is looking for a nanny who brings a steady, nurturing presence to their children’s days. The oldest child has a tree nut allergy, so comfort carrying and administering an EpiPen is required.

This role primarily focuses on early mornings, school transitions, and scheduled additional coverage. The family is open to live-in (private bedroom and bathroom provided) or live-out for the right candidate. No car is required, though parking is available.
