A little bit about us
We are expecting our first child in September 2021. Both of us are entrepreneurs running our own companies and working full-time. We are looking for a primary caregiver for our child for the first two years of their life. You will work collaboratively with our night nurse and housekeeper. Mom will be working from home and "in and out" throughout the day. You will often be caring for the child in partnership with mom or one of the grandparents, particularly during outings.
It is important to us that you speak fluent Hebrew and English. Ideal candidates will be native Hebrew speakers, and will have exposure to Montessori or Waldorf-style education. This is a full time role with a potential variable schedule.
We are ethical, compassionate employers looking to make the most important hire we've ever made - our first nanny. Mom was an infant nanny in college and knows what it's like to be treated like a member of the family. That's what we're aiming to do. You will have housing in our brand new, one bedroom guesthouse on our property but separate from our home. It has a full kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bath. When staying in our country house, you will have your own bedroom and a bathroom that might be shared. We will provide you a monthly healthcare stipend and two weeks of paid vacation per year. You will be paid an hourly at the rate of $25-35 dollars an hour, depending on your experience. When it is safe, you will travel with us domestically and internationally. We have one trip scheduled to Europe in May 2022 and likely another one to Israel. We expect clear, open communication and excellent care. We will conduct and annual performance reviews with the potential for bonus pay for outstanding performance.

A little bit about us
Mondays: care of 22-month-old only (4-8 hours at $19/hour depending on nanny availability. Open to negotiate rate depending on experience)
Tuesday-Thursday: all 3 kids together at one house (8 or 8:30 AM until 3/3:30 PM at $25/hour)
Fridays: care of 2.5 year old twins (typically 4-8 hours at $19/hour. Rate negotiable depending on experience)
We work schedules with some flexibility, so total hours can be between 30-40 depending on the needs of the nanny. All three children begin school in August, however there is the possibility of continuing a regular schedule with the 22-month-old at reduced hours after August.
We are loving, active, and intentional families. We deeply value the care provided to our children by a nanny, and hope to offer a supportive and inclusive work environment. Someone who is a good fit with us is active and engaged, enjoys toddlers and has experience working with this age, appreciates impromptu toddler dance parties, and can roll with lots of kid questions, big curiosity, and toddler emotions. We hope to work with someone who is able to comfortably uphold daily routines/structure, hold limits when necessary, and help our kids learn and practice tools for managing the big emotions that come up from time to time (two of the moms are therapists so there’s lots of practice with feelings in our houses!).
Some transportation of children to play places or programs is expected. Fluency in Spanish is a major plus but not required.
If we sound like a good fit we’d love to talk with you!

What Are Bilingual Nanny Jobs?
Bilingual nanny jobs are positions where speaking a second language is a valued part of the role. Families may want their children to learn a language, keep up a language spoken at home, or communicate with a grandparent or relative. Your language skills can set you apart from other candidates and may support a higher rate.
Types of Bilingual Nanny Jobs and Responsibilities
Some families want you to speak only the second language with the children, and others want a mix throughout the day. Responsibilities can include childcare, meals, activities, and reading and playing in the second language. Jobs can be full-time, part-time, or live-in, so check the schedule and expectations in each posting.
How to Interview for Bilingual Nanny Jobs
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here are some questions you should ask:
- Which language do you want me to use, and how often?
- How fluent do you expect me to be?
- Do the children already speak the language?
- Are there other adults in the home who speak it?
- Is language teaching part of the role, or just everyday conversation?
Beyond asking these questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
