Kinder Nannies and Staff Ltd. London and International Nanny and Private Household Staff Agency
Swiss-Austrian family lives in Zollikon, a residential area close to Zürich
(10 min) and close to the lake. You will get your own little apartment in the
house with extra entrance. It is well-connected by public transportation, so
driving is not mandatory. However, this family is also spending significant time at their vacation homes in Spain (Mallorca) and Austria.
They also like to travel from time to time. Family language is German but both
parents speak very well English, also French and Spanish. The kids are trilingual
(German, English and Spanish), so if you speak Spanish it’s a plus.
They are both friendly, active and happy kids! The toddler is now also able to play on his own for longer periods of time, which gives the nanny time to be with the baby. The family has 2 guinea pigs, They have a housekeeper who comes twice
a week to clean their house and she also cleans the cage for the guinea pigs.
The proposed work program for the Nanny is 40 hours a week. You need
flexibility with the program, especially when they travel. It is important for
them to find someone who is uncomplicated, flexible, ready to help. You should
be interested in travelling with them from time to time. Wherever they
are, they will always provide a single room and of course, pay for your travel
expenses. Their expectation for household chores is mainly based on normal
tasks focused on the children and in the kitchen. Tasks could include
preparing bottles & easy food for the children, clean kids’ room/toys, handle the
kids’ laundry, help in the kitchen, run small errands.
They are looking for a happy, friendly, loving, warm-hearted, active and
positive person. They are a happy family, and they want to have this vibe in their house. The most important is the love for their children. The right person has a
good education and good manners, be trustworthy and easy going. Ideally, she understands family values.
They would like to form a bond with the person, do activities with her, consider
her as a team/family member but can also have free time. You will
sometimes do activities with mum, but you should also be happy to look after
their children on your own. Swimming is a plus.
