Edina - Nanny & Household Manager Needed
About The Position
We are a warm, active, and tight-knit family of five living in Edina, MN. Both parents work in demanding healthcare careers with variable schedules, including hospital on-call shifts, occasional work-related travel (about once per quarter). Mom works from home and offers schedule flexibility when she is in town. We have three energetic, athletic boys (ages 13, 11, and 7; in grades 8, 6, and 2). They love the outdoors; biking, hiking, fishing, swimming, and playing sports. We speak Spanish at home (though being a Spanish speaker is a bonus, not a requirement). We treat all of our household employees like extended family and are looking for a long-term, committed partner to join our team. We are seeking a proactive, independent leader who can keep our household running seamlessly while providing engaging, structured afterschool care. The primary focus will be afternoon and evening support Monday through Friday from 2pm-6pm, encompassing house management and childcare. Coordinate daily schedules and drive boys to afternoon sports, activities, and appointments. The nanny is expected to use their own vehicle, but our family car can be available as needed and mileage can be reimbursed. When Mom is traveling for work, your support may occasionally be needed earlier in the mornings to help get the boys off to school.
