What is a live in Japanese nanny?

A Live In Japanese Nanny is a childcare professional from Japan who resides with the family they work for, providing personalized care and support for children. In addition to general nanny duties, they often help introduce Japanese language and culture into the household, fostering bilingual skills and cultural understanding. Live-in arrangements typically include room and board as part of the compensation, and the nanny may also assist with light housework or educational activities. These nannies are valued for their cultural background, language skills, and experience in child development.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a live in Japanese nanny?

To thrive as a Live In Japanese Nanny, you need experience in childcare, a deep understanding of Japanese language and culture, and often relevant certifications in childcare or early childhood education. Familiarity with household management tools, educational materials, and basic first aid is typically required. Patience, cultural sensitivity, and strong communication skills help build trust with both children and parents while supporting a bilingual environment. These abilities ensure the child's safety, foster cultural and language development, and support harmonious household relationships.

What challenges might a live in Japanese nanny face when adapting to a family's household routines and expectations?

As a Live In Japanese Nanny, one common challenge is adjusting to the specific routines, parenting styles, and household rules of each family, which can differ significantly from your own background or previous experiences. Clear communication and flexibility are essential, as you may need to quickly learn and respect family traditions, meal preferences, and discipline methods. Additionally, balancing your professional responsibilities with personal boundaries can be complex when living in your employer’s home. Building mutual trust and regularly discussing expectations with the family can help ensure a positive working relationship.

An Au Pair usually offers cultural exchange and light household duties, with less emphasis on formal childcare credentials. Both roles are based in private homes but serve different purposes in family support and cultural immersion.

Job description

A kind and loving family is seeking a full-time live-in or live-out nanny to join their family, caring for their 20-month-old and eventually their second child due in September. The position will begin as soon as the ideal candidate is found. When in Austin at their home base, the general schedule will be Monday through Friday, with a minimum of 40 hours guaranteed. The typical schedule will be 7:30 am-5:30 pm with some flexibility, especially during times one parent travels. They travel throughout the year, including up to 1 month internationally in the summer. The parents hope to find a nurturing nanny who can engage their children in developmentally appropriate, fun, and educational activities. Their ideal nanny is loving, calm, confident, reliable, and capable. This is an active, outdoorsy household that values good food, good humor, and an organized, calm home. The ideal candidate is the loving, capable, operational heart of the home. 


  • Care for a toddler: engaging, active play (parks, pool, outings), meals, routines, potty training support in time, early learning activities, planning of playdates.
  • Care for an infant, in time: supporting mother with breastfeeding, bottle prep, naps/sleep routines, diapering, developmental play, tracking milestones.
  • Children's meal planning and preparation.
  • Children's laundry, nursery and play area organization, gear and wardrobe management (sizes, seasons, restocking).
  • Coordination of pediatric appointments, classes, and activities; school readiness support as the boys grow.
  • Safe driving of children to activities (family vehicle provided for on-duty use).
  • Occasional support for family travel: packing for the children and, for the right candidate, traveling with the family domestically and internationally (all travel expenses covered, travel premium paid). 

Not part of the role: Deep cleaning, heavy housework, property maintenance, and administrative/PA work for the parents' businesses. Those are staffed separately. The nanny's focus should be on the children and the rhythm of the home.


  • The parents are actively involved, so you must be a team player and also know how to read a room 
  • Pitch-in attitude and a proactive and positive personality
  • Organized and one step ahead, especially with travel
  • Excited to work with these ages and know what developmental milestones are coming next
  • Easygoing personality and able to adapt quickly to different environments 
  • Confident swimming skills (pool) ideal as the toddler loves to swim

  • Comfortable with a large, friendly dog
  • Travel-ready: experienced traveling with families and current passport 
  • Driver’s license and clean driving record (nanny car provided)
  • Professional/career nanny who knows how to maintain boundaries and can navigate being in a live-in role. MUST have experience as a live-in nanny if applying for live-in.
  • Tech-savvy (baby connect, calendar, etc.)
  • Team player with excellent communication
  • Infant/child CPR and First-Aid certifications (or be willing to update them ASAP)
  • Legal to work in the US

$30+ per hour plus benefits including 2 weeks PTO, 5 sick days, monthly health insurance stipend, and annual retention bonuses

The nanny will have their own private bedroom and bathroom with an adjacent living area.
