QUALIFICATIONS
- Minimum 5 years of professional nanny experience in UHNW or staffed households.
- Proven success working collaboratively on a nanny team and with hands-on parents.
- Highly active, engaging, and energetic; able to participate in physical and outdoor play.
- Strong communicator and self-starter who can work independently or as part of a team.
- Comfortable in a dynamic, fast-paced household with changing schedules.
- CPR/First Aid certified (or willing to certify).
- Valid driver’s license with clean driving record; confident driving children.
- Trustline registered (or willing to register).
