Either 9am til 6pm or 9am til 7pm.
The family is currently employing one of our temporary nannies in Germany and both sides are extremely happy with the other. The nanny highly recommends the family as one of the best she has worked for.
This wonderful young family is looking for a warm, pro-active, reliable, loving and energetic nanny to help look after their children. Nanny should have a good amount of experience with children aged 1 years to 5 years. Mum is very warm and friendly. Having good communication with her nannies is important, as she wants a good working relationship/ partnership.
This kind and warm family has 2 sons aged 1 & 3yrs.
The house and location are both very beautiful.
It is essential that nanny has a Swiss or EU passport, or otherwise already has a work permit to work in Switzerland for the next years.
Languages; completely fluent French and also English (as mum speaks English) . As the children are young and learning languages the family have a preference for a nanny with a native level of French, without a strong accent.
All normal nursery/ nanny duties. Helping with food preparation for the children, children’s laundry, empty dishwasher, vacuum if necessary. A housekeeper comes once per week.
The family travels regularly and would like nanny to accompany them to south of France, Germany and other holidays. The nanny will always have a beautiful room to stay in, very nice accommodation.
Dad works long hours, mum is home, but has activities, so the nanny will need to be able to work in both a sole charge and shared care role. The 3 year old will attend nursery/ Kindergarten. The house has a huge playroom which will be particularly useful when they can’t go outside as much – during winter.
To be accepted for interview with this lovely family and excellent position you will need to possess a Swiss OR EU passport. Have a proven track record or previous nanny jobs with references. The family prefers nannies who have previously worked in long term roles.
