- Encouraging independence, emotional security, and healthy development
- Creating a calm, safe, and nurturing environment at all times
- Working collaboratively within a two-nanny team
- Communicating openly with parents about routines, milestones, and daily updates
This position follows a structured rota schedule of 1 week on / 1 week off, with 12-hour daytime shifts during working weeks.

Compensation starts at $50 per hour, reflecting the level of experience and emotional presence they are looking for.
