We are seeking an experienced and committed full-time nanny for a busy family living in Amsterdam.
You will be responsible for a 6-year-old girl. She is bilingual in English and German and attends the British School from 08:30 to 15:15, Monday to Friday. She is active and sociable, enjoying ballet, music (piano), painting, swimming, and spending time with friends.
The ideal candidate will be nurturing, reliable, and flexible, with a passion for supporting a child's growth and development. This is a long-term position, and they are seeking someone who can stay with us for a minimum of 3 years.
The nanny will be responsible for managing all aspects of the child's daily life, including school drop-offs and pick-ups (the school is a short 10-minute walk from the house), providing educational support and emotional guidance, preparing healthy meals, and overseeing activities such as playdates and outings. The role will also involve light household duties, including organising her wardrobe and packing/unpacking for family travel.
They require someone who is willing to travel internationally with the family and is comfortable with evenings and weekend shifts, as both parents travel frequently for work. The position is live-in, with private accommodation on a separate floor of the family home. The household is fully staffed, including a private assistant and two housekeepers, and the nanny will work closely with them.
The ideal candidate will have experience with school-age children and ideally be familiar with Montessori principles (although not mandatory). Fluency in English is essential, with German being a bonus, and First Aid and CPR certification is required. Flexibility is key, as well as a willingness to travel with the family.
This role offers a competitive salary (negotiable based on experience), all expenses related to family trips covered, and a commitment to long-term employment. We are looking for someone ready to commit long-term and become an integral part of our family's life. If you are a dedicated childcare professional looking for a dynamic, family-oriented role, we would love to hear from you.
