About the job

A close-knit family in Potomac is seeking a warm, professional, and adaptable nanny with extensive newborn experience to serve in a dual role as Household Manager. Their baby girl is due in late June, and they're looking for someone who can support both her care and the overall management of their home. This loving family is thrilled to welcome their baby girl and is excited to bring a seasoned, emotionally attuned caregiver into their home. Both parents are busy executives with frequent domestic and international travel. They value calm, respectful communication and appreciate people who are thoughtful and grounded in their approach. While their parenting style is flexible and rooted in love, they prioritize consistency, clear boundaries, and a nurturing environment built on mutual respect. Both Mom and Dad gravitate toward people who are grounded, thoughtful, and emotionally aware. After experiencing a significant loss in the past, they are understandably protective of their newborn and appreciate caregivers who offer quiet, steady support without overstepping. They're looking for someone who is calm under pressure, naturally organized, and proactive in a way that brings ease, not overwhelm. Warmth, patience, and a low-drama presence are key. The ideal candidate will intuitively know when to step in and when to give space, and will truly thrive in a home that values trust, communication, and emotional sensitivity. The ideal candidate is confident and capable, yet grounded and adaptable. They should feel comfortable taking the lead when needed, making sound decisions, and managing day-to-day responsibilities with ease and independence. Discretion, professionalism, and emotional intelligence are highly valued in this home. The family would love to find someone who is bilingual in Spanish or French, enjoys preparing simple, healthy meals, and is open to traveling occasionally with them when needed as they do travel for work. The family has four beloved dogs, two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, a Rottweiler, and a Boxer, so comfort around pets is a must. They are the sweetest animals! They enjoy cultural outings, travel, the opera, working out, and sharing meals together. They're looking for someone who not only meets their needs on paper but who truly feels like a natural and trusted extension of their family. In this exciting role, the nanny's primary focus will be providing exceptional care in a safe, nurturing environment. During Mom's maternity leave, the nanny will support both her and the baby by anticipating needs and offering calm, reliable assistance. Responsibilities include daytime care, assisting in sleep conditioning, getting the baby on a schedule when appropriate, preparing bottles, safely handling and storing breast milk(mom plans to exclusively breastfeed), keeping the baby clean and well-dressed, maintaining a fully stocked nursery, and the baby's laundry. The nanny will also plan age-appropriate outings and playdates, transport the baby to and from activities, and support the home through household management tasks such as keeping things organized, coordinating vendors, running errands, and preparing simple, healthy meals for the family. Qualifications 5 years of professional childcare experience Educational background preferred High school diploma Previous infant experience Fluent in Spanish or French At least 21 years of age Valid driver's license Clean driving record Authorized to work in the U.S. Pet friendly Valid passport & availability to travel domestically and internationally if needed Current on standard vaccinations Schedule Full-time, guaranteeing 40 hours per week. The general schedule will be Monday through Friday, generally from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Flexibility will be appreciated. Compensation The family is offering $45-$50/hour based upon 40 guaranteed hours per week, which equates to up to $1,800-$2,000/week, and an anticipated annual base income of $93k-$104k+/year. This position is paid legally, on a W-2, subject to regular deductions and withholdings as required by law. Benefits The family is offering a monthly healthcare stipend, 5 days of paid sick time, 10 days of paid time off, paid major holidays, and mileage reimbursement at the IRS rate for on-the-job travel. The family is also open to providing a monthly housing stipend and relocation assistance for non-local candidates if needed. Live-in candidates will be provided with a private bedroom and bathroom, along with access to the home's gym, sauna, and lap pool. They are also open to providing a nanny vehicle, depending on the needs of the role. Start Date This role will begin on July 15th. Apply today!
