About the Family
A warm and loving family in Nashville, Tennessee is seeking an experienced nanny/house manager to support their two young children and help maintain a well-run household. Their 6.5-year-old daughter is sweet, fun-spirited, and hardworking. She has cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair and an AAC device for communication. Their 3.5-year-old son is easygoing, affectionate, and enjoys independent play. Both children love getting out into the community and enjoy activities such as bike rides, music classes, library outings, and outdoor play. The children attend school Monday–Friday until 3:30pm and currently do not participate in after-school activities. Both parents work hybrid schedules between a home office and an outside office.
