About the Family & Their Ideal Nanny / Family Assistant
"Before our recent move from Washington, DC to Rancho Santa Fe, we had the most wonderful long-term nanny who truly became part of our family. She was my right hand, particularly because my husband travels nearly every week for work, and we are hoping to find someone here who can fill a very similar role and stay with our family for many years.
We have three children, including an 8-month-old baby and two older children who are in school during the day. The primary childcare responsibility during school hours is caring for our baby. I generally use the school day to work a little, exercise, run errands, and recharge so that I can be very present with the older children once they are home from school.
Our previous nanny was wonderful because she was not only an exceptional caregiver, but also a true partner in keeping our household running smoothly. She naturally took ownership of children's/family laundry, tidying and organizing, keeping the kitchen and children's spaces in order, preparing healthy meals and snacks, and noticing what needed to be done without always having to be directed. If we were traveling, she would even think to start packing the kids' suitcases, just as one example. Having her manage these day-to-day household responsibilities allowed me to focus much more of my time and energy on the children.
Just as important to us is personality and demeanor. Because this person will spend so much time with our family, we are looking for someone whose company we genuinely enjoy and who brings a calm, positive presence into our home. Our ideal nanny is exceptionally reliable, trustworthy, safe, professional, intelligent, kind, cautious, patient, thoughtful, warm and loving. We particularly value someone who has good judgment, is proactive, notices details, communicates well, and takes genuine pride in her work.
We are also a very tidy, health-conscious household. We prioritize nutritious food for our children and generally try to maintain a clean, organized and health-conscious home, so someone who naturally shares those values would be an especially good fit.
Above all, we are hoping to find someone we can trust wholeheartedly and welcome into our family for the long term. We are not looking for someone who views this simply as a temporary job. We would love to find someone who wants to grow with our family and be an important, valued part of our children's lives for many years.
We are a Type A, detail-oriented family, and the right person will genuinely thrive in that kind of environment. We are hardworking, organized and take pride in doing things well, and we hope to find someone who brings that same exceptional work ethic, attention to detail and sense of responsibility to our home.
While we have high standards and care deeply about things being done thoughtfully and well, we are also incredibly loyal and generous employers. We treat the people who work with our family with tremendous respect, appreciation and care. Our hope is to find someone who will become part of our family, and in return, we will support her and take very good care of her for the long term.
Thank you so much for your help with our search!"
